Troop 247 - Reedsburg, WI

Troop 247 - Reedsburg, WI ADVENTURE IS CALLING! Scouting America Troop 247 is a boys troop chartered by St. Boy Scouts is always a good time!

Peter's Luth Church in Reedsburg, WI - Glacier's Edge Council - Driftless District. We meet every Tuesday-6:30pm at the REC Center in Reedsburg (lower level of City Hall). Scouts participate in weekly Troop meetings & monthly outings. Outdoor activities include camping, sailing, rock climbing, hiking, canoeing, skiing, snowboarding & campfire cookery, as well as much, much more! Scouts have life-c

hanging experiences doing things to work towards awards and have fun at the same time. Outdoor activities and outings prepare young men for responsibility that comes with adulthood. Boys are organized into Patrols of 5-8 boys lead by a Patrol Leader who "leads by example" to his peers. Patrols work as a team to earn merit badges & camp together on outings.

What a great Crossover & Rank Graduation!! Busy weekend with lots of other commitments, so unfortunately, not everyone was able to attend, and some could only come for a portion, but we still had a great time! Although it rained overnight both nights, we were all tucked in our tents by that time & the days were lovely. We set up a hammock village & even ventured into the lake (water is still really cold in WI in May ๐Ÿฅถ) & explored a bit. Guys got a lot of rank requirements checked off and the food was some of the best Iโ€™ve had in a campout. Breakfast tacos & spaghetti with garlic bread will stay on our ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป menu!
Congrats to all the Cub Scouts that graduated to the next rank, Boy Scouts that received merit badges or rank badges, but especially to Ian who crossed from Pack 247 to Troop 247!

Last weekend's backpacking trip was a success! We started at Roznos Meadows, took the Ice Age trail across the ferry (ice cream break, naturally!). Spent the night at the dispersed camping area. Sunday's adventure took us to Gibraltar Rock where we ended at the trailhead. Great first backpacking trip for the gang!

๐ŸŒญHello families: Just a reminder to check your schedules to see if you can help out at the Reedsburg Area United Fund's Brat Bash & Dash. They are a HUGE supporter of not only us, but many other non-profits in the area, so this is our chance to say "Thank You" by volunteering our time! I've included the Sign-Up Genius below. Scouts are encouraged to volunteer, but they need to have a parent volunteering as well. We leave for our weekend campout at 6pm that night so keep that in mind when signing kiddos up! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1Dz2JwCGHW/

Enjoy a few throwbacks of previous clean-up days. Even added a few conservation activities that we did while we were out on some of our adventures.
