Crossover Weekend

Johnson Pavilion/Lake Bowen
April 17-19, 2015

Friday evening

A full night of scouting! A Troop 1 “Culinary Team” special dinner will be served. The cost is $8.00 per person.  Dinner is at 6:oo p.m. and a Court of Honor will follow.

Please make every attempt to be a part of this important event for our Scouts. Crossover is for the entire family and we hope to have a great turnout. Older scouts are encouraged to camp to show our new guys the ropes. Cubs and Webelos with parent or guardian are invited to camp also. New first year dads will be cooking breakfast Saturday morning for all overnight campers.

Fly fishing merit badge and Saturday evening

Fly Fishing will be the name of the game on Saturday after the Crossover! Scouts that sign up for this optional add-on to Crossover weekend will complete all of the requirements for the Fly Fishing Merit Badge under the direction of our Fly Fishing expert, Rick Phillips.

We will begin Saturday morning at our Lake Bowen campsite with the classroom portion of the badge. Then it will be off to a private pond near Saluda where scouts will learn more techniques of fly fishing and then get to reel em’ in. We will have a picnic lunch in the mountains and then head back to our camping spot on Lake Bowen to cook our catch for dinner before spending another night under the stars.

The cost for this adventure will be $30.00 per scout (adults $10.00) and includes all meals from lunch Saturday through Sunday breakfast. Scouts will return to the scout hut Sunday morning about 10:00. Scouts should plan to bring a small cooler with them as they will be bringing some uncooked fish home with them so they may show their families their newly learned cooking skills!
