BSA Troop 703 Brevard NC got back to our adventures and community service this weekend with our river cleanup canoe trip down the French Broad. We put in at Champion Park in Rosman and paddled 11 miles to Island Ford. The scouts worked on their trucker hitch to tie down the canoes, covered canoe and paddle identification, river safety, map skills and navigation. We gathered plenty of trash and of course…a tire. The Autumn Olives and Elderberries were ripe so some learned about edible plants in our wonderful environment. The highlight for everyone was a sighting of North America’s largest amphibian, a Hellbender. That is a cherished sighting of a threatened species and is a good sign for our French Broad.

Our Scouts had a fantastic time backpacking to Camp Daniel Boone for a week of summer camp. They earned 65 Merit Badges, caught and cooked trout on the fire, earned lots of rank advancements and most of all had a blast.

And they’re off!! TWENTY-FIVE hikers started the annual hike in to Camp Daniel Boone from the Little East Fork Trail this morning. TWELVE of those hikers are first-timers - including a 4-legged friend. We can’t wait to hear their stories on Sunday!

We had a beautiful overnight at Butter Gap with a sunset hike on Cedar Rock. The Blue Ghosts were magical on the Art Loeb. New packs checked out and ready for the hike to Camp Daniel Boone!

Scouting helps build the values of community service and has the slogan “Do a Good Turn Daily.” Yesterday members of Troop 703 helped out with Pisgah Project Day by clearing underbrush around a stand of shortleaf pines. It was a fun day of service and learning about forestry at the Cradle of Forestry in America.

Last weekend BSA Troop 703 Brevard NC had an amazing high adventure trip in the Linville Gorge wilderness. The best climbing instructors around helped the Scouts learn about climbing and rappelling and most of all, the safe way to climb. Many of the Scouts are now very close to earning their Climbing Merit Badge. The Table Rock trail was very steep and rocky but everyone powered through, including some on their first hike with the Troop. Saturday night the cold front came in and we slept with windchill in the 20s. Everyone overcame the elements, fears and challenges to grow as young men and leaders. We are so blessed.

In preparation for our Linville Gorge adventure in a couple of weeks, we had Joe Moerschbaecher from Pura Vida Adventures present last night. We went over climbing gear, knots and climbing route books. We are all excited to do some climbing and work on the climbing Merit Badge. Thanks Joe!
