New Time for Adventure Race Feast!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by Joe Kjar on November 8, 2011
After carefuel consideration, the start time for the feast at the Adventure Race Campout on November 19 has been CHANGED to 3:00 p.m. instead of 4:00 p.m. This is being done to help encourage more Webelos families to stick around for the Luau Pig Roast and to help be sure we are done before nightfall.
Please spread the word that this time has changed. The Quest for the Holy Grail - Crown Jewels Adventure Race will still take place from 8:00am to 1:00pm, but the time for the begining of the feast has been moved forward to 3:00 p.m.

The October Urban Adventure is a one-day exploration through the heart of downtown Denver. It’s designed to give the Boys Scouts a different environment—away from the peace and solitude of the outdoors—in the hustle and bustle of the urban scenery. Scouts will be given a list of Adventure Point Locations (mainly well-known landmarks) each with a different point allocation (based on difficulty and distance). The goal is for each team to visit as many locations as possible and return with the most points (photo evidence required). The boys will utilize the public transportation system and will be required to plot their strategy and route and learn to use the Light Rail and RTD Bus system to travel to each of their destinations.

CLICK HERE to sign up for the July 2011 campout! (or go to the camping & activities page)
The July campout will be a day hike on the Hagerman Tunnel Trail. It is considered an easy hike, about 6 miles round trip. The hiking trail is the old railroad grade that the Colorado Midland Railroad used back in the late 1800’s. The historic and engineering feats that were accomplished by this rail line include the tunnel, which has year round ice due to its elevation, and the Hagerman Trestle, a lengthy and one of several trestles the line used. Since this is only a day hike we will work on rank advancement when we are done with the hike and relax in the beautiful San Isabel National Forest. You will not want to miss this historic and breathtaking adventure.
