Webelos 3 mile hike

Just a reminder for our hike on Saturday October 28th at Tyler State Park. The meeting place is 9:00 am at the outdoor amphitheater by the boat dock/launching area parking lot. It is on the back side of the lake. The weather is slated to be crisp and cool so dress accordingly. Layers is probably your best bet. All participants should bring enough water, snacks/lunch for you to enjoy and keep up your energy. All webelos need to make and bring their own first aid kit (pages 82 and 83 webelos book), and be able to talk about what they decided to pack. I will also be discussing with them the “Outdoor Code” and “Leave No Trace Principles”, pages 19 and 20 in the webelos…
