General Info 

Each year the troop takes a trip to Winter Park, Colorado to snow ski over the Presidents' Day Weekend. Scouts can take this trip at no cost if they sell the required number of Christmas wreaths. This is a great experience for the scouts and we encourage all scouts to participate. Those scouts who do not go skiing are still requested to sell 40 wreaths. It is the sale of wreaths that supports the activities of the troop and the purchase and maintenance of our camping equipment.
