Are You Tougher than a Scout?

LEHIGH DISTRICT FALL CAMPOREE

October 20-22, 2023

Camp Minsi, Pocono Summit, PA

$20.00/person

Register by October 6, 2023 to get a $5.00/person Early Bird discount.

Registration Closes at 5pm on Friday, October 13, 2023

Space is limited. Registration closes as soon as we reach capacity. Due to limited parking spaces please car pool.

Scout patrols will be competing against their leaders. Each unit is asked to provide their Scoutmaster and/or an Assistant Scoutmaster to compete in the patrol competition. Leaders from multiple units will form one or more patrols to compete against the Scouts.

The leaders will be challenged to see if they are tougher than a Scout by doing their best by competing at the same stations and events as the Scout patrols. Depending on the number of units present, and the number of adult victims/competitors, more than one adult patrol may be formed.

Every patrol will be given a map of the camp and the location of each station. At each station, the patrol will have to complete a task or challenge. The patrols will have a limited amount of time to complete that challenge. Once a station has been completed, the patrol will be given the next “clue” to find the next station. Patrols will be crisscrossing the area so following the patrol that just departed the station might not be the correct path. A master plan of who is supposed to be where will be provided to each station. If a patrol comes to the wrong station, they will need to go back to the previous station and try again. Scoring will be done with a passport that can record what time they get to station, how long to do the task, what time to leave, and the score at the station. This will help prevent any “back-ups” that can happen at a station. Also, all members of the patrol must be at the station before they can start. A patrol will receive a piece of a puzzle at each station, prior to leaving, which they will use to complete a final puzzle once all the stations have been visited.
