Previous Years Summer Camps
In years past 349 has had good attendance at summer camp with a majority of the scouts in the troop attending. Scouts form 349 also work as CIT’s (Counselors In Training) at Goshen, this is reserved for the older boys in the troop (a Scout has to be 14 years old) and sufficiently advanced in rank (Star Scout and above). The position of CIT is a 4 week (minimum commitment) and offers the scout the unique ability to practice some of his leadership skills in a familiar surrounding.
