Web II Bridging Ceremony Saturday, March 31, 6p
Reminder: Pack 731 Webelos IIs are graduating from Cub Scouts and bridging to Boy Scouts on Saturday, March 31st, at 6:00 PM, at Camp Barrett inCrownsville. All Webelos scouts (I and II) are invited to participate in this special ceremony and campfire. Bleacher seating is limited around the fire ring, so families should bring folding chairs or blankets to sit on. Wear comfortable walking shoes, and bring a flashlight. The Ceremony will go on, rain or shine. (In case of rain, we will meet under the picnic pavilion, instead of by the fire ring). The Pack has the entire campground reserved for the day, so Webelos Dens are welcome to come early and picnic and hike the very nice nature trail. Camp Barrett is located on Chesterfield Road near the AA County Fairgrounds (and Camp Tomahawk), off Crownsville Road.
