Trapper Trails Council created

On January 1, 1993, the Lake Bonneville, Cache Valley and Jim Bridger Councils merged to form the Trapper Trails council.

Camp Browning - Trapper Trails Council

I ran into something interesting today about scouting that might be of interest. Camp Browning by Camp Kiesel, is for high adventure scouts. Here's a site that might explain why it is named Camp Browing.

Guide To Safe Scouting

Can you take your scouts shooting with .22 caliber rifles?

Can the new-scout-patrol (11-year-olds), go camping with the main troop?

Scoutmasters have a very important function for growing boys. Knowing the BSA rules is very important. The Guide To Safe Scouting is online for your review as a scoutmaster. Let's have activities within the guidelines. The churches guidelines may be more restrictive in some cases, so let's not loosen up the BSA guidelines to suit our own personal desires.
