Hopefully all Scouts are gearing up to camp this weekend at home with your families! Our dedicated Scouts Camping Apart yet Together (SCAT) 2020 facebook group is up and running and lots of activities and challenges will be posted throughout the weekend for both cub scouts and boy scouts to enjoy.

Many things will be for all to participate in, however, some activities may be just geared for the pack and others just for the troop.  The goal is for us all to enjoy being outside with each other, learning, sharing and having fun as part of our big Millstone Scout family!
