Event Type

Program: First Aid
Program Patrol: Mighty Ducks

Details:
One of the best sites in Florida that we go to.
We will be focused on fun and not First Aid (hopefully the two won’t mix). The Mighty Ducks have planned a tubing excursion at Ichetucknee Springs, an Ice Cream Social, and a group pancake breakfast before we come home.

Some reminders:

  • Patrols need to plan on cooking:
    • Saturday Breakfast
    • Saturday brown-bag (portable) lunch at the springs
    • Saturday Dinner
    • Any snacks
  • This is a water adventure. Water shoes (not flip-flops) are required. If you have a PFD, feel free to bring it.
  • At the moment, it looks like we may get some rain. Please pack accordingly! Let’s hope we don’t need it though! Otherwise, should be wonderful weather for being outdoors.
  • Friday dinner should be eaten or brought with the scouts. We will not arrive in time for dinner at O’Leno.
  • Patrol lunches on Saturday should be brown bag/portable as we will be eating picnic-style at Ichetucknee Springs State Park.
  • Sunday morning, troop breakfast is provided by the adults.
  • Don’t forget bug repellent, we are entering prime season as the weather warms.
  • Please arrive before 5:30 if at all possible Friday. If we leave on time we may have some sunlight left for setup Friday evening.
