Blanchard Springs Camp Out

September 9, 2022 @ 5:30 pm - September 11, 2022 @ 12:00 pm

Scouts & Adults will need to meet behind Wesley United church at the troop trailer by 5:30 pm.  This will be about a two-hour trip to the campsite.  Please arrive on time for the trailer pack-up.  We will need to leave promptly by 6:00 pm.  Please eat dinner before arriving at the church as we will not be stopping for preparing a dinner meal.

The time of arrival at camp depends on the actual departure time but is approximately two hours.  We will unload the trailer & begin individual tent setup.  A cracker barrel snack (sausage, crackers, cheese, & cookies) will be served for an evening snack.

Saturday we will cook a morning breakfast, clean up and then prepare to travel to Blanchard Springs Caverns.  Time not yet scheduled.

After returning from the cave tour likely will have lunch & then free time for swimming in the creek adjacent to the campground.

Saturday evening cook dinner patrol method as assigned.

Sunday morning, cook breakfast, pack up camp.  After circle up, we will begin our journey back to the United Methodist Church to unload.  All persons participating in this campout will be required to return back to camp to help with the unloading and cleaning up of food coolers and dry boxes.
