Klondike Derby Jan 29-31st 2010 PDF Print E-mail

Klondike 2009The Klondike Derby is a one-day winter event (Friday night camping is preferred and Saturday night is optional) that brings together Scouts from the entire Alpine District. To add to the fun, we have invited troops from the Cascade District as well. Adventures and activities are focused around an all-day sled adventure between activities with a "gold-rush" days’ flavor. Each adventure has been selected to introduce or educate each and every scout in Scout craft skills pertaining to cooking, pioneering, first aid, compass, and teamwork, as well as basic survival techniques and methods. By combining the winter camping experience with the Scoutcraft competitions, the Klondike provides an opportunity for Scouts to experience new challenges while having lots of fun. All troops are encouraged to participate in this great adventure!

Returning Highlights from Prior Years!
•    The Klondike Derby will be held at the Ensign Ranch located off Interstate 90, exit 78.
•    The Klondike Derby will be open to registered Boy Scouts only.
•    Use of the same successful scoring arrangement encourages the patrol method.
