ETOWAH 'TRAIL DAYS' CAMPOREE @ CAMP BELK
OCTOBER 18-20TH, 2019
Welcome to the Troop 65 Camporee signup page. This year we are the 1st C0-Chair for the event, which means we are staffing many of the positions and helping to run the event along with Troop 140 and Troop 233. While we will need as much help with staffing as possible from the Scouts and Scout Leaders, we will also need non-camping Parent volunteers to help with food and setup. These roles will not require a Parent volunteer to remain overnight. More info to follow.
