Trailblazer Gathering @ Spring Rendezvous

  • April 26-28, 2019 at Camp Minsi, Pocono Summit PA

Trailblazer is a half-day orientation to Scouts BSA especially designed for new girl troops. It will be held in conjunction with Camp Minsi’s annual Spring Rendezvous Weekend. Scouts will participate in the morning gathering which will cover these topics:

  • Welcome to Scouts BSA! - Learn where to look stuff up to help you get going.  We will also cover tips on picking a summer camp and how to prepare for that experience this summer.
     
  • Light It Up! - Learn the basics of fire building and identify when to use each type of fire to accomplish the task at hand.
     
  • The Patrol Method in Action! - Teamwork in scouting is called the patrol method. Participate in a role-playing exercise as we walk through the process of making that first breakfast.  Instrumental in any patrol cooking activity is the ”eliminate arguments” Duty Roster approach.
     
  • Girls' Chat! - An open discussion on camp and camping, with girls, for girls, and by girls.

Scouts will then join the Spring Rendezvous action by spending their afternoon and evening sharing in some awesome outdoor adventures and fellowship events at Camp Minsi -- such as open boating on Stillwater Lake (including paddling as a group in our massive voyageur canoe); participating in unique hands-on shooting sports activities at all shooting ranges, back country hikes; and much more.  

Adult leaders will spend the first part of the afternoon exploring Troop Committee administration best practices shared by seasoned Troop Committee members.

Registration for the Trailblazer Gathering:

  • You may register for the weekend or just for Saturday.
  • The cost is $15 per person.
  • By registering for Trailblazer, you are automatically registered for Spring Rendezvous.
  • This includes food on Saturday (3 meals), Camping and the afternoon and evening activities. You do not have to double register with Spring Rendezvous.

For the weekend attendees, your housing is also included. You do not have to double register to reserve a facility for Friday and Saturday night.  Available camping will be in Tuscarora (site 2) near the Trading Post.

  • The campsite is equipped with the latest BSA canvas wall-tents with internal metal frames on raised wooden platforms. Tents hold two cots, which provide housing for a Scout and her buddy.
  • Each site also includes newly-renovated comfort stations with private flush-latrine facilities and running water.
