Ask any boy why he's in Boy
Scouts and "camping" will likely be near the top of his list of
reasons.
Troop 629 is committed to the
camping experience and the patrol method. The Troop offers monthly
camping events and a full
high
adventure program for the older boys.
Summer Camp 2012:
This summer, we'll be camping
at
Woodruff Scout Camp the week of June
17th.
