High Adventure Like No Other - Swamp Base High Adventure
T10 leader Nicholas Chen plans to lead a group of Troop 10/6010 Scouts on our first Trek to Swamp Base High Adventure outside of Lafayette, Louisiana in 2025.
|
There will be an Informational Meeting on Monday, January 29, 2024 at 6pm. The goal is to gauge interest and to discuss dates so that we can reserve our trek. By Feb. 5th those interested will need to make a $100 deposit.
|
What is Swamp Base? Started in the summer of 2013, Swamp Base’s High Adventure treks offer 6 day/6 night paddling trips through the Atchafalaya Swamp. Our Scouts will be able to experience nature as they have never seen it before. Our trek will dispel some swamp myths and help with an understanding of the natural environment. This is a BSA program, safety measures are in place to ensure our Scouts return home as better versions of themselves.
|
Swamp Base Trek Crews journey daily from June 6 - July 15. Each Trek Crew consists of 8 to 11 people, and includes a minimum of 2 adult leaders. A Scout unit can bring 16 to 22 people for the High Adventure Trek. Swamp Base is a council led High Adventure Base, Scouts can attend at 13 years old.
|
T10/6010 Scouts interested in paddling/canoeing should sign-up to attend both Swamp Base and our 2024 Memorial Day Buffalo River Trek. More information concerning the 2024 trip will be available in the coming weeks.
|
If you want to do a little pre-meeting research, the SwampBase website is fairly thorough.
