Luray Caverns Campout Sign-Up is Available

Scouts and Scouters,
We now have a sign-up genius posted for our next campout, which is to Luray Caverns the weekend of Nov 3rd. We will be departing from CoF after dropping off Scouting For Food notices in the morning.
The Luray Campout will include a tour of the caverns and museum, as well as some time on their ropes course. The ropes course is a condensed, friendlier version of what you experienced at Sandy Springs.
After Luray we will come back halfway home and camp out at Camp Snyder. This will be the last tent-campout of the fall! So scouts trying to get their camping nights in should try to make this.
We will be back at CoF on Sunday the 4th around 10am.
To sign up, go to www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0A4DA9A62FA46-luray
Costs per scout is still being determined. We will update the sign-up genius when we have that info.
Meal planning will be held on Wed Oct. 24th.
