Mom & Me Campout
Next Event: Weekends of Oct 8 & 15 Choose from two weekends to spend camping in the beautiful mountains of Southeast Oklahoma with your mom at Camp Dierks near Wright, Oklahoma. After setting up camp with other Pack mates, dive into the activies: BBs, archery, crafts, challenging obstacles and games. Don't forget makings for s'mores and be ready to have a really great time! The fun begins at 9 am on Saturday (rain or shine) and will last until noon Sunday. Special activities for Cubs and their Moms include tent camping, games, crafts, archery, hiking, BBs, campfire, chapel, star gazing and enjoying the scenic setting. The coucil recommends you bring comfortable clothes (Please pay attention to the weather and prepare appropriately. Camp Dierks is just outside Wright, Okla., if you want to reseach weather forcasts before your trip.), sturdy shoes, tent and sleeping equipment, towels, basic toiletries, jacket, hat, insect repellant, flashlight, rain gear, and, of course ... your Cub Scout Spirit! Suggested items include glow sticks, fire starters, snacks, drinks, fixin's for s'mores, cameras, cots or air mattresses, and fishing gear. Ask others who have gone before for their suggestions as well. A map to Camp Dierks is here. But we suggest you caravan with others from our pack who are going on the same weekend. Pack 12 campers will all be stationed in the same area within the camp. A map of the layout of the camping and activity areas is here. This is one of the most beloved events by Moms and Cubs alike. Several women who "knew" they would hate tent camping, but willing to submit for their son, have come back thrilled by the experience they shared together. For those of you who are new to camping, there will be assistance in the form of Boy Scouts or Venture Crews to assist you in setting up camp. You should also take spending cash, as the Camp runs a scout store with "must have" items, such as slush puppies, walking sticks, etc. Leaders & Parents, we need photos from this event.
