Events
Scouting provides many opportunities for you to learn new skills and adventures. Both Troop and Pack 251 offers Scouts of all ages a wide variety of activities throughout the year that will challenge your skills, like using wood tools (safely and responsibly), building campfires, first aid, basic cold weather survival skills, swimming, and knot tying. Troop 251 focuses on community service, camping, and hiking, and, of course, regular weekly Troop meetings. Here are just some of the other things we’ve done in the past few years:
- BSA Scouts Summer Camp
- Year-round monthly campouts at Camp Char Le Maude and other locations
- Regional and National Camporees and Jamborees
- DIBC (Canada) Campout
- Fishing and Canoeing at the Troop Cabin (ice fishing too!)
- Community Service Projects
- Vicksburg’s Memorial Day & Schoolcraft’s 4th of July Parades
- Polar Bear Campouts and Klondike weekend event
