Camping

Troop 18 visits many different camp sites throughout the year, there is mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing, caving, canoeing, skiing, or just working on our camping skills.

Each summer Troop 18 heads up to the Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan Scout Reservation in July, where Scouts can work on merit badges such as Swimming, Sailing, Canoeing, Environmental Science, Rifle Shooting, Archery, and Wilderness Survival.  They can also just hang out, read a book, and enjoy the out-of-doors with their friends.

This year our troop was forced to go to camp Tesomas in Wisconsin due to weather damage and was EPIC.
