SU 36 Spring Encampment

Camp Todd, Denton, MD

April 5-6, 2008

 

Sure you love to go camping, but do you know what goes into making a camp weekend successful?  This is a service unit Troop Camp Training encampment, so you will be learning side by side with leaders and girls of all age levels.  Even if you are an experienced camper you will be able to polish up your camp skills, learn the many ways to build a fire, cook meals outdoors, box a tent (no, that doesn't mean putting it back into a box!), how to lead nature activities and camp crafts, and tons of other cool stuff.  A fun weekend for you, plus you will receive real camp training and a patch to prove it!
