Guns and Arrows Campout -- Oct 11-13 2019



This trip is a tradition for Troop 149. We are headed back to Camp Sinoquipe this year on Friday, October 11th, returning on October 13th.

As the name Guns and Arrows suggests, we spend Saturday on three different ranges; archery, rifle and shotgun. For archery and rifle, we'll be shooting at targets. For shotgun, we'll be shooting skeet/clay targets. 

This year we will once again have competitions. Top archer, rifle, and shotgun will receive an inexpensive but memorable prize. Also, we will have a breakfast competition, with adults serving as culinary judges. Winners will get a similarly inexpensive memorable prize. If we have additional ideas, you'll hear about them at a meeting!

BSA has a high standard for Shooting Sports which the Troop follows. In attendance on this trip will be NRA-trained Instructors and Range Safety Officers for Rifle and Shotgun Shooting and USA Archery / National Field Archery Association trained Archery Instructors and Range Safety Officers. Safety is an obsession on this trip and discipline on all the ranges is STRICTLY enforced.

We will have a training session for Rifle Shooting, Shotgun Shooting and Archery, either at the meeting preceding Sinoquipe, or on Saturday morning before hitting the ranges.  Please review these training presentations before then:
Cost for this campout, including camping fees and all equipment rental, will once again be $40.04.
