September 28-30 Troop 1001 will be going camping at Trevor Rees-Jones and Texas Freshwater Fish Hatchery in Athens, TX.  The weekend’s activities include the 60 ft. John Coffman Climbing Tower and spending Saturday afternoon at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center (TFFC) where we will fish, explore the hatcheries and watch a diving show.  You may bring your own fishing gear or borrow TFFC gear.

We will round it out on Sunday morning with some lessons on safe canoe handling in preparation for the canoeing campout coming up in October.

Parents: We need drivers, please register and provide the number of open seatbelts.  

If you are working on your camping or fishing merit badges, review the requirements, talk to your merit badge counselor and bring needed materials with you.
