Class A should be worn all day Saturday except at the waterfront. Be sure to bring water shoes.

This is the event of the year! Our troop is in charge of the T21 Kayak Club – oops, I mean CCJ Plywood Regatta. It will be fun to see all the Kayaks on the reservoir. There will also be competitions, merit badge classes, a climbing wall, and shooting range. All jamboree events are open to all and are from 9:00am to 5:30pm Saturday.

Saturday night from 8:00 -9:30 is a professionally produced inspirational stage show open to all – including parents. Sunday will wrap up a 2-3 hour service project (9-12). This will fulfill the Second and First class requirement, and help in the Star and Life service project requirement.
