29th Annual Operation Snowshoe "Webelos Are You Ready?"



Dear Cubmasters / Webelos Leaders:

Your Operation Snowshoe Chief is happy to announce plans for Operation Snowshoe 2017, a Webelos winter camping experience. The event is scheduled for February 25   and February 26, 2017 at Camp Daniel Boone. Operation Snowshoe is for all Webelos Scouts, Leaders and interested parents. Siblings of any age are not permitted at this event. Being Youth Protection Trained is required for all adults.

The registration fee is $15.00 per Scout, Leader or Parent.  Completed registrations received by January 9, 2017 will give your patrol an extra 10 spirit points. Completed registrations received by January 29, 2017 will receive an extra 5 spirit points. Registration cut-off is February 6, 2017 to participate. NO EXCEPTIONS.  We highly recommend advance registration through the Scout office to avoid a late registration cost of $20.00 per person after January 29, 2017, instead of the on time cost of $15.00 per person.  Late registrations are not guaranteed patches and receive no extra points.  No extra points will be awarded after January 29, 2017. The adult leader in charge and the field chief MUST attend the organizational meeting on Sunday January 29,2017 at 2:00 PM at the Daniel Boone Council Service Center. Extra leaders and parents are encouraged to attend.
  
NO REGISTRATIONS ACCEPTED AFTER FEBRUARY 6, 2017

*No refunds given after February 6,2017, without approval of Snowshoe Chief*

Our objective is to provide a meaningful and challenging learning experience for all Webelos and Arrow of Light Scouts. We also want it to be an enjoyable event for all.

Operation Snowshoe is a Webelos winter camping experience for every unit, large or small, experienced or inexperienced. It is a Patrol-oriented event, meant to develop and test Webelos scout skills. Patrols will camp and participate under the leadership of their own normal patrol leaders.

Every participating patrol will win 2 ribbons or a lot more!

Attached are the details of this event.  After you have read this book and if you have questions please call me at 828-775-7941.

Come and join us for the 29th Annual Operation Snowshoe!

Arrow of Light patrols that have crossed over still may participate but must still wear the Webelos uniform.

Yours in Scouting,
Phil Winchester
Snowshoe Chief
