1 Join Us For Pacifica District s Webelos Woods September 23-25, 2016 El Dorado East Regional Park, Long Beach What is Webelos Woods? Webelos Woods is an outdoor activity program designed to aid in the Webelos to-scout Transition plan. The purpose of this outdoor experience is to create in all Webelos Scouts a genuine desire to know more about Boy Scouting, and through a fun-filled series of events to give them a preview of the thrills of scout skills and camping. Probably nothing in the scouting program appeals to boys more than the opportunity for adventure in the great outdoors. The Webelos Woods event will expose the participants to glimpses of the fun and skills of Boy Scouting. It also offers an opportunity for parents to gain a perspective on troop programming and the opportunity to graduate along with their sons. Who can attend? All Pacifica District Webelos Scouts are invited to participate, but each Scout must be accompanied by their parent, guardian or any family member over 18 years of age. Due to the limited size of this event, we ask that no siblings attend. When is it? Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, September 23-25, 2016 Where is it? El Dorado East Regional Park, 7550 E Spring St, Long Beach, CA Some of the activities you can expect to experience include: Camping, Cooking, Fire Building Skills, Games, Leadership, Scoutcraft, Scout skills plus fun crafts and an exciting campfire program! Webelos Scouts will also have the opportunity to work on some of the requirements for Webelos Adventures. Cost: Early bird price is $35.00 per person if received by Monday August 1, 2016, or $45.00 per person until August 29, Includes meals (except Friday night), scarf, patch and all activities and crafts. Any Questions? Contact Alison Crompton at pacificawebeloswoods@gmail.com.
