🥾🏕️April trip was backpacking! Troop 22 spent the first night at Hidden Valley, packed up the next morning sending two groups hiking up to Round Pond to spend their second evening.  All Scouts and leaders performed great, proving to themselves that they are capable of hiking many miles carrying all their gear and survive in the woods with only the basics of necessities. Great job everyone! Onto the next adventure…May’s bike trip! 🚴🚵

📋 The PLC Makes the Program Youth-Led

The Patrol Leaders’ Council (PLC)—led by the senior patrol leader—is where youth leaders plan the troop’s program and activities. Patrol leaders bring ideas from their patrols, helping shape meetings, outings, and the troop’s calendar.

When the PLC leads planning, the troop becomes truly Scout-led.

❄️🥾🪏This weekend, Troop 22 braved chilly conditions and camped in Adirondack Shelters for 2 nights learning how to use and cook all of their meals using white gas stoves. They worked super hard and made snow shelters. They even had time and energy for hiking/snow shoeing, sledding and capped it all off with a campfire 🔥 It was great watching how they all supported each other and genuinely had fun “playing” in the snow in a true youth led fashion. Our adult leaders had just as much fun enjoying each other’s company and being entertained by these fantastic scouts! ❤️⚜️

❄️🎿Troop 22 had an amazing “Winter Travel” trip this weekend seizing the opportunity to snow shoe & cross country ski before the sleet and rain decided to visit. We set up our tents at Camp Wanocksett and traveled less than 10 minutes away to Shattuck Golf course where they groom their golf cart paths for the public to use during the winter. Thanks to all of our volunteers who helped make this trip a success. 🎿❄️
