Chisholm Trail

Chisholm Trail is a unique and unforgettable high adventure, the first of many for most scouts. While most High Adventure experiences require a scout to be 14, those who are 12 and have completed the 7th grade or 13 years old (by June) and older may attend Chisholm Trail.

At Chisholm Trail, we get a pontoon boat for a week, do six high adventure outposts, and cool off with watersports all afternoon every day!  The outposts could have us fighting in living history battles, tubing, wakeboarding, windsurfing, jumping on the blob, and more!

For more information, check out the Chisholm Trail experience HERE.

Chisholm Trail 2021 deposits of $125 per person are due to Bob Morgan 2/1.

CHISHOLM TRAIL DATES:

June 13-19 

Scout Accounts may be used for such purpose of course. Total cost estimated at $450 per participant and adults are $400. We need to reserve our boat(s) now, and # seats per boat are limited, so need an accurate count of attendees at this time, i.e. please don’t commit if you aren’t sure that you can attend.

We will need minimum 2 adult leaders to attend 

Parents should attend Troop meeting to discuss Chisholm Trail options with Bob Morgan. 

Be aware that Part C of the BSA Medical Form IS required for Chisholm Trail (this is clearance by a doctor for participation).

June 7-13 (note that these dates conflict with Northern Tier)

or

June 28 – July 4 (the week after Summer Camp)

The date selected will depend on most participants’ availability.

While Northern Tier is a minimum age of 14, it is not expected to be a huge conflict in that regard, as Chisholm Trail is typically utilized as an introduction to High Adventure camping. We need to register ASAP, so please check out the info at the link above and let us know!

Chisholm Trail

We are in need of an adult leader to lead our Chisholm Trail Adventure this summer as REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN.

Chisholm Trail is for those Scouts aged 13 or older or who have completed 7th grade by June 2019. It's like the first high adventure experience they can have in Boy Scouts. Wouldn't it be awesome to make that happen for them?  A reminder **everyone attending must pass BSA Swimmer’s Test.

Merit Badge sign up forms for summer camp will also need to be completed and turned in at tonight's meeting. THIS FORM includes rank requirements and other prerequisites for taking certain merit badge classes.
