2024 Joshua Tree Camping

By Layla, Webmaster Troop 506G

The Joshua Tree Camping trip is a very fun camping trip that Troop 506 goes on every year. It is one of the trips that the scouts look forward to every year, because there are many fun activities. Some unique things that scouts love about this trip are the rock climbing, the exploring, and the amazing views. After a long hike/scramble up a boulder, the view of the desert is even more phenomenal. Additionally, the stars at night, the sunsets, and the sunrises are also breathtaking.

During the Joshua Tree trip, there is a campfire program that never disappoints! Scouts come up with fun new skit ideas (or reuse old ones), and it is such a fun way to bond with fellow scouts and have a good laugh. Scouts also cook for themselves and their patrol, so it is very good for learning new skills. This is also a trip for the families of Troop 506, and is fun for everyone involved.
