Webelos Woods is an overnight campout designed to introduce Webelos Scouts to the many outdoor adventures of Scouting. This awesome event includes activity sessions with troops in our district, fun evening campfires, and important information for parents and webelos about transitioning to scouts. This is a great opportunity for Webelos Scouts and their parents to observe local troops in action. Due to social distancing guidelines, the event will be virtual and we encourage all scouts to camp in their backyard.
