32nd Annual BearPaw
OUTDOOR SESSION
Three-day Winter Camping Experience
WHAT:
The outdoor camping experience allows participants to put into practice what they learned during troop meetings, which is camping in the snow or a very cold environment within a very safe environment accompanied by a couple of hundred fellow Scouters. This may be the best high adventure they may ever participate in as a youth; even adults have fun. The event has a focus on fun in the cold/snow, along with camping challenges that are easily overcome with experience and mentoring. We will have a snow cave and snowman competition, plenty of hot cocoa, and fellowship!
