2026 High Adventure Survey - Due Monday 2/24

Posted on Feb 18 2025 - 11:27am
Nothing like howling winds to stir up ideas of adventure.  If your son will be 12 years old or older in the summer of 2026 AND has a hankering for a high adventure, THIS survey is for YOU.
 
We've narrowed the options down to 5 choices at 3 of the main high adventure bases. We did not get a Philmont Cavalcade trek for 2026 and are taking 2 large crews this summer, so Philmont won't be an option as a troop until 2027. 
 
2026 High Adventure Survey
 
Please fill out this form BEFORE Monday, 2/24 so we can move forward in the process. The trek bookings are live and open to all troops and crews in the country at this point so dates may not be available the longer we wait to book.
 
Please let Amy or Stephanie know if you have any questions.
