Troop 7 is back for the new school year! Already this year we have done a bio-luminescent kayak trip, troop building games, and a backpacking hike. Next month is the archery campout!
This year for summer camp, Troop 7 traveled overnight by Amtrak train to Raleigh, NC to spend the week at Camp Raven knob in Mount Airy, NC. We had a great week, although a very warm week thanks to the heatwave, but the waterfront area was oh so nice to cool off. We worked on our skills, bonded as a Troop and learned new things, including pioneering, metalworking, archery, and kayaking.

Troop 7 had a great week at Camp Rainey Mountain, in Clayton GA. The girls went white-water rafting, and worked on numerous merit badges, including Rifle, Archery, Photography, Art, and Wilderness Survival. They also hiked an adventurous 1099 steps at Talullah Gorge State Park. Thank you to our families and volunteers who made the 2022-2023 school year and our camping adventures possible. We have several activities over the summer as well as an upcoming calendar for the 2023-2024 school year.
