Cub Scout Pack 1776 Mayfair Philadelphia
Philly Cub Scouts
Cub Scout Pack 1776 will be camping at Fort Washington State Park. The cost for the trip will be $20 per person and includes: Saturday Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner; Sunday Breakfast; and Campfire Snacks.
Fort Washington State Park is rich in modern recreational facilities and historical significance. The park takes its name from the temporary fort built by George Washington’s troops in the fall of 1777, before heading to Valley Forge. Fort Washington blossoms with flowering dogwood in the spring and the park is popular with hikers and picnickers. The seasonal migration of raptors is enjoyed by many avid birders from the parks observation tower.
Fort Washington has 3.5 miles of trails, fishing, a disc golf course, a softball field and lots of space to play and do activities. Scouts are welcome to bring bikes, fishing gear, and those scouts who have earned their whittling chip will be allowed, with parental approval, to bring their pocketknives.
If you plan on attending please email Dan Griess (dgriess@cubscoutpack1776.org). Payments for the camping trip can be paid at the gym on July 10, July 24, or Aug 7 between 7:00-8:00pm or at any of our other Summer activities.
