Winter Camporee

Please check back for updates for our Winter Camporee

Camporees

Every year the District organizes two Camp-0-Rees, fall and spring. Generally the cost is $15 to $20 per scout and leader. At every Camp-0-Ree there is a competition of varying types to determine the “honor patrol.” There is a travelling trophey that is passed to the winning patrol at the end of each Camp-0-Ree. The other long time favorite is the “Golden Skillet.” This is another travelling trophey; the awardee is the winner of the cooking competition that ussually occurs on Saturday afternoon.
