Goshen’s Labor Day Family Camp, September 2-5, is open to all scouting families and has activities for all ages. The program format is open program. During the hours of program, you and your family can show up to any of the program areas and take part in the unstructured activities – whether that be boating around the lake or testing your skill in archery. There are also opportunities to go on hikes to two of Goshen’s most popular spots – the Swimming Hole at the river and Viewing Rock with a magnificent view of the lake.
Based out of Camp Bowman, Vets is recommended for Scouts ages 14 and up. Activity options range from competitions between Vets in a chili cook off or a canoe race, exploring Goshen with day hikes or visiting outposts with a Taste of Lenhok’sin, or just hanging out with new friends on an overnighter.
