Sleeping bag or blankets, pad, sleep clothes, etc. for sleeping back at the church. Extra set of dry clothes for the lighting of the campfire on Saturday morning.

R.S.V.P: R.S.V.P. by January 30 — please let us know if you’re coming and if you’re bringing family or friends so that we can plan for transportation needs. We DEFINITELY need some parent volunteers to help with logistics at the slopes. You don’t have to ski or buy a lift ticket to help. You just have to help us get through rentals and lessons. Then, you can watch our scouts learning to ski OR have some hot chocolate in the lodge!
