Spring Camp-Out Update

Earliest arrival time at Timberhill is after 3:30pm. Please check this website thursday or friday incase this time changes.

Directions to Camp Timberhill are as follows:
North on By-Pass 4
Turn Right on Rt. 4
Go 1.2 miles (or approximately 1 mile)
Camp is on the left side of the road.
If you hit Liberty Fairfield Rd you've gone too far.
The sign is pretty small so be watching for it.
Follow the entrance road to the parking lot
Our campsite is Hill' n Dale which is Northeast of the parking lot

Please do not bring firewood. We've purchased plenty of firewood from the ranger. No carry in firewood is permitted.
Just an FYI: Only boys with their wittling chip are permitted to have pocket knives. This is not only a pack rule this is a BSA rule.
If anyone has 2 way radios these would be helpful for the "Pre-Flight Training" Letterboxing adventure.
If you don't plan on showing up until Saturday, please be at the campsite by 10am so you don't miss out on the letterboxing fun. Make sure you bring shoes suitable for hiking.
Be sure to study the post below, for hints and clues to Saturdays adventure.
If you have any questions regarding the Spring Campout. Contact Jodi at pack969committeechair@gmail.com

Spring Campout

Anyone else super excited it's finally Spring? OK so maybe not today, which is the day we chose to go hiking to pick areas for the "Preflight Letterboxing Adventure". All week it was warm, and sunny, today cold, dreary, wet and muddy. We did not succumb to the weather and carried on with our hiking plans. So the mosaic that follows is a preview of the camping area as well as hints for the letterboxing adventure. You will not want to miss the letterboxing adventure.

If you've seen these photos it could give your team an advantage. Details.....

Welcome....

We wanted an easy way to communicate with the parents and boys of Pack 969 over the summer, so we've created this blog. If you have pictures or suggestions for something you think should be added to the blog feel free to e-mail Jodi, Pack969committteechair@gmail.com. Please check the blog often for events and information we hope to add.
