Mark your calendars for our next Hiking Club event on Sunday, December 11th at 6:00 pm. This event will be an “Owl Hike,” and we will walk the Delaware Canal towpath by the light of the full moon.
As a reminder, all Scouts who hike 25 miles or more over this Scouting year will receive special recognition at our end-of-year event in May.
