Pico Blanco camp is a 1.5 - 2 hour drive from Salinas. You can arrive any time and leave any time, but the camp is from 4pm Friday to Monday evening on Memorial Day weekend. Cost is $50 each (kids 5 and under are free), and includes food. We spend a lot of time hanging out by the fire and playing in the river. There is archery and BB gun shooting (very well supervised). Some of the boys also bring pocketknives and we instruct on safe use. Expect some nice unstructured time in a beautiful forest setting, something many of the scouting families look forward to all year. Non-scout friends or family members are also welcome to come with you. If you haven't been camping in a long time (or ever), this is a great opportunity to learn the ropes. There will be plenty of people to help you put up your tent, and have fun.
There is a sign up sheet on the blog site. All money needs to be collected by the April 23th den meeting.
There will be a lot more info to come.
