All Pack 311 dens are invited to participate.
This is a two-night camping trip to Jonathan Dickinson State Park. We will have time for games, den "adventure" breakouts, campfire skits and much more. There is a $6 fee per vehicle for entering the park.Â
Aim to arrive at the park at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, December 6, 2024. The gate closes 15 minutes after sunset (sunset is 5:28 p.m. on December 6, so the gate will close at 5:43 p.m.). The park is about an hour from Delray Beach. We will pack up and hit the road at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday morning.

Organized camping is a creative, educational experience in cooperative groups living in the outdoors. It uses the natural surroundings to contribute significantly to physical, mental, spiritual, and social growth. Jonathan Dickinson State Park is packed with history, resources and activities to keep the whole pack busy learning and having fun. It'll be a great time!
See What to Pack for a list of gear and supplies to bring.
