Tips for Success
Tip #1: "Let's Talk Layering
We are an all weather troop. We camp as scheduled and the better prepared you are, the more fun you will have.............
Tip #2: "Sleeping Pads"
Do YOU use a sleeping pad when you go camping? Why you should!
Tip #3: "Sleeping Bags"
My sleeping bag is the size of a small microwave, HOW do I carry it?!.........
Tip #4: "I got a tent, Want to See it? Sure do!"
Tents come in all sizes and shapes. Our troop believes in purchasing a tent that can be used for backpacking. That means a tent that weighs about 5 lbs. or less. But less weight means more expensive in most cases............
Tip #5: "Packing"
Great question. You could buy a backpack, you could use some sort of duffle bag, or you could even use some type of footlocker (for summer camp)..but it really depends on the type camping you do...........
