Mystery Campout Weekend

Every once in a while, we do a campout to an random location. This year, we went back to Camp Dobbins to work on basic Scout skills for our new Cub crossovers. We climbed the crags, earned tote and chips, and built shelters.

Riverway Cleanup Event

The Alpine district runs an annual riverway cleanup event to pick up trash around the waterways in Jefferson. It is eastimated that land-based activities account for 60-80% of the world’s marine pollution. This debris is carried to the ocean in part by creeks and rivers. As part of this effort, we worked on picking up trash around Clement park and Johnson Reservior. Do a good turn daily!

Gardening Merit Badge

Mr.Coffey has kicked off Spring planning with a Gardening Merit Badge block. Last week, the Scouts planted their seeds so that their seedlings will be ready to plant when the weather breaks.

Pinewood Derby!

This past weekend, our troop had the opportunity to support our Charter’s Cub Scout troop Pinewood Derby race! It was a beatiful day to have an outdoor race, and it was very nice to see all the families gathered for the competition.

Chess Merit Badge

Thank you Mr.Pierson for helping the Scouts work on a passion for Chess!

Ice Climbing

The troop camped and did some high adventure ice climbing at Camp Alexander with Front Range climbing!

Night Hike

Our annual night hike on Green Mountain was amazing as usual. This year we invited some Webelos to join us and made the trek with about 30 Scouts and Scouters. As tradition dictates, cookies and hot chocolate were served afterward.
