Philmont 2020 - Cavalcade or Hiking Trek

Posted on Nov 23 2018 - 1:21pm

Have you ever wanted to ride a horse for a week? Have you ever wanted to visit Philmont without having to hike every day? Do you like the idea of having a horse carry all of your gear, or being able to see Philmont from a different perspective?
 
If so, then Philmont Cavalcade might be the opportunity for you!  Philmont Cavalcade gives you a full week of horse riding through beautiful Philmont, taking you to the same camps and activities as a normal Philmont trek, while teaching you how to ride and take care of a horse. To top it off, at the end of the week, you get to participate in a gymkhana (aka mini radio), where you can show off the skills you learned and participate in fun games with your horse.

CTX Campout!

Posted on Nov 8 2018 - 11:14pm

Hello Toop 1001-

I have had many requests about being able to attend the CTX campout even though we're past the official deadline.
 
Good News! They are allowing us a few extra spots to accommodate those who have decided that they would like to attend the campout on November 9-11 at Texas Motor Speedway, but didn't get registered before the deadline.
 
So, if you have decided you want to attend the campout, in order to guarantee space for your attendance, please go to https://www.troop1001.org/home and register ASAP. All campers will need to be registered online by 6PM on Monday Nov 5.  There is a $30 fee for all scouts and adults that will be attending.  Please pay online at the time of registration. It is going to be a really fun event.  Check out the participant guide that is available on the troop website for all the activities/opportunities that you will be offered throughout the event.
 
Reminders for Nov 5 MONEY MONDAY:
 
--$15 cash to your Scout's patrol leader for food
--Signed permission slip (you can find it on the Troop website)
--Payment of $30 fee for each registered Scout and adult (online or by check on Monday)
 
Also, at this time we do not have enough people signed up to transport our Scouts to/from the campout.  If you can help transport to or from the event on Friday Nov 9 and/or Sunday Nov 11, please register that information online at the CTX registration page (just note that you are driving only, not camping) or email/call me and let me know that you are available to help, how many seats you have available for Scouts and if you are willing/able to tow one of the trailers.  Thank you!
