Webelos Woods 2009 Sail Away With Scouting November 13-15, 2009 What is Webelos Woods? Webelos Woods is a weekend event designed to give first and second year Webelos Scouts and their parents a preview of the Boy Scouting experience. The program reinforces Boy Scouting values, procedures, methods and skills. It is an introduction to Boy Scouts being a "boy led" program versus the "adult led" program used in Cub Scouts. Also, there is the thrill of camping in the outdoors at a Boy Scout style camp, which will foster a desire to continue Scouting. This is an excellent opportunity for each troop to show the Webelos scouts in the area what the troop does and to recruit new scouts for the troop. Likewise, this is an excellent opportunity for Webelos scouts to visit with a variety of troops within the area and help determine which troop may be the best to join. The event can be used to satisfy at least one of the requirements towards the Webelos scout's Arrow Of Light award. Webelos scouts should arrive Saturday morning around 8:30am and must have a parent or guardian over 21 in attendance if the scout will be participating in the overnight camping portion of the event. Reservations by mail (204 Landsburg Court, College Station, TX 77845) or at Burdett's: Webelos Registration and setup runs from 8:30-9:30 am, Saturday. Bring your own camping gear and food for the weekend. Webelos will be assigned a camp site or you may choose camping space with a Troop. The program should conclude by 11:00 am Sunday. REQUIRED: Each Webelos Scout must have a parent or guardian over 21 in attendance for the overnight camping portion of the event.
