The boys of Troop 719 are continuing to put the outing in scouting! We traveled to Harper’s Ferry in Virginia for whitewater rafting. It was a gorgeous day on the river and the water temperature was perfect for a swim - whether it was getting tossed out of the raft by accident or by choice.
Our scouts were true to the Scout Motto and were prepared! In order to attend, they demonstrated swimming ability by passing the Scouting America swim test before the event and had to wear the appropriate safety gear for the activity. Everyone had a blast and we can’t wait for next month’s adventure- a ropes course and zip lining!
