March 16th, 2008: Regarding Summer Camp 2008
March 1st, 2008: Regarding Philmount Scout Reservation
Dear Scouts and Parents:
Troop 201 has recently been awarded a limited number of slots for a 12 day excursion to Philmont Scout Reservation from August 5 through 17, 2009.
Philmont Scout Reservation in Cimarron, New Mexico is the Boy Scouts of America’s premier high adventure camp. It consists of 214 square miles of rugged mountain wilderness, with terrain ranging from 6,500 feet to 12,400 in elevation. Those participating in a Philmont Trek will carry a 35-50 pound backpack while hiking 5-12 miles per day. Participants must be willing to commit to a period of preparation, teamwork and physical training in the 18 months prior to the trip. The trails are physically and mentally demanding, and require top physical condition, maturity, and a command of scouting and camping skills.
Youth participants must be minimum 14 years old by January 1, 2009, or be at least 13 years old and have completed 8th grade prior to August 5, 2009, and achieved the rank of First Class Scout.
All participating adults must be registered scout leaders, with current youth protection training. At least one must show evidence of American Red Cross Wilderness First Aid training (16-hour course). At least one must show evidence of American Red Cross CPR training. Certificates of Completion for these courses will be collected in Base Camp.
The cost to attend Philmont is $595.00 per person. In addition, participants are responsible for travel costs to and from the reservation. There will also be expenditures for backpacking and hiking gear that is not normally used on our typical weekend outings. We may be able to hold Philmont-specific fundraisers to help defray some of these costs.
Since it is essential that our Philmont crew operate as a team prior to arriving in New Mexico, scouts interested in attending will form a Philmont Patrol, and will meet apart from the troop to train and prepare for the trip. This may include separate hiking and backpacking outings.
Please respond by Monday March 3, 2008, to let us know whether you are interested in being part of the Philmont Patrol. Please contact us with any questions. Information is also available on the Philmont website at www.scouting.org/philmont.
The council will be holding an informational meeting on Philmont and other high adventure trips at Kellenberg High School on Monday February 25, 7:30 -9:00. All interested scouts and parents are encouraged to attend (Class A uniforms required).
