Lets Go Camping! 

Camping with Pack 416

Pack 416 will go camping at three times during the school year with an additional fourth camping opportunity each summer.  Our campouts include fun activities like bottle rockets, camp fires, hikes, outdoor cooking, conservation projects, exciting games, and s'mores...of course!  These outings provide opportunities to make new friends, earn new adventure badges, and participate in special activities.  

Each rank in Cub Scouting has adventures that take Cub Scouts outdoors.  The outdoors can be urban or rural it does not need to be a remote location.  From a one foot hike to a five mile hike Cub Scouts learn about their natural surroundings. 

What should you bring?

A big part of Cub Scouts involves introducing boys and girls to the fun and adventure of spending time outdoors. And if you’re going to spend time outdoors, you’re going to want the right gear.

The Cub Scout Six Essentials, learned as part of the Wolf Rank, is a list of a half-dozen items every Cub Scout should carry when going on hikes or campouts. These are items every Cub Scout should carry in their personal gear when going on hikes or campouts:
