Roaring River

Camp / Day Activities

Where is it?

Roaring River Special Use Area

The special use area is a short distance from the main campsites along Hwy F. If you see this old barn you've found it. There is a hiking trail from this area, but most of the time we will drive down the hill to fish etc.

Details

This is a great chance for the kids to get out and fish. Trophies will be awarded for different categories.

Deadline for sign-up is for camping and/or day activities is noon Thursday April 4th.

What To Bring

  • Somewhere to sleep: tent, hammock, sleeping bag, pillow, blanket, cot, air mattress, etc. Sorry no RV camping with the Pack.
  • Your six essentials.
  • Watch weather and be prepared with appropriate clothing.
  • Current BSA Health Form if you haven't completed one this year.
  • Closed toe shoes
  • Mess kit (plate, cub, bowl, spoon, fork, knife)
  • Your immediate family. Pack camp outs are always a family event.
  • Snacks and other drinks you may want as a family (not required).
  • Safe and fun things to do during free time (Nerf ball, etc.).
  • Fishing gear. We will likely be fishing on Zone 1.

Expenses

The cost of camping includes paying to reserve the campsites along with food and other supplies for things like s'mores. To help cover some of those costs, we ask families to donate $8 per person or a maximum of $32 per family.
