We will camp at Bear Trap Trail Camp at 5100 feet. \nDIFFICULTY: This will be a moderately difficult backpack trip – we will hike 4.7 miles each way\, gaining 1150 feet of elevation from Reyes Creek to Bear Trap. There will be a few downhill sections\, so the total elevation we must climb to get to Bear Trap will be about 1780 feet. \nAVAILABILITY: This is an intermediate backpack trip\, and will be limited to scouts and dads who have backpacked with us previously. If you have not backpacked with us\, please plan to join us on our introductory backpack trip next fall. \nCOST: $10 per person. Deadline to confirm your spot is Monday night\, June 3. Bring your check made out to BSA Troop 355 to the troop meeting\, or mail or deliver a check to Mr. Moffat’s house. \nMEET: At Scout House at 6:30 AM on Saturday\, June 15. We will divide troop gear and food then depart for the trailhead. The trip to the trailhead is about 2.5 hours. We will return to the trailhead Sunday about midday and should be home by 3:00 PM. \nDIRECTIONS TO THE TRAILHEAD: Take the 210 west to Highway 5 north. Take Exit 205 Frazier Mountain Park Road. Turn left on Frazier Mountain Park Road and proceed for seven miles. Turn left on Lockwood Valley Road and proceed for 23.3 miles. Turn left on Forest Route 7N11. Arrive at the Reyes Creek Campground. Proceed through the camp to the parking lot at the trailhead.

Saturday’s dinner will be prepared by individual crews. Crews will be announced Wednesday night June 12 by email. \nSPECIAL NOTES: It might be cold (40 degrees) at night\, be prepared with long johns and a beanie hat to sleep in\, a good sleeping bag\, a jacket and gloves.

Other newer scouts who have not yet reached Tenderfoot are welcome to attend and get the signoffs they need. It will be a great opportunity to get a few Tenderfoot requirements before the summer starts\, which will make it easier to achieve the Tenderfoot rank at Cherry Valley or in September. You can work on any of the Tenderfoot requirements that you need – please review these in your handbooks before the meeting so you will be able to master the skills quickly at the meeting. If there is sufficient interest\, we can continue this meeting past 7:00 p.m. URL:https://www.bsa-troop355.org/event/tenderfoot-sign-off-meeting-2/ CATEGORIES:Merit Badge END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20130610T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20130610T180000 DTSTAMP:20200819T023306Z CREATED:20200819T023306Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023306Z UID:1777-1370883600-1370887200@www.bsa-troop355.org SUMMARY:First Aid Sign-Off Meeting DESCRIPTION:All new scouts are invited to come work on their First Aid signoffs. Hawk ASM Mr. Sivad will be teaching the First Aid signoffs for the Tenderfoot\, Second Class and First Class ranks. This is a great opportunity to get these signoffs before taking the First Aid merit badge at Camp Trask or Cherry Valley – it is a prerequisite of the First Aid merit badge to complete these signoffs. Scouts in both of our new patrols are encouraged to attend\, plus any other scouts who still need to complete these signoffs. Please review the First Aid worksheet and instructions sent by Mr. Sivad.
