WHAT IF I CAN'T RIDE THE FULL 50 MILES FOR BIKE THE BEAR?

WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE ANYONE OUT.  If a scout doesn't want to bike the Bear, we still want him to participate in the overnighter. They will not have to ride the full 50 miles if they do not want to. There are people every 10 miles for mechanic problems and for the boys to stop and rest. If they feel they can't go any further, we will have people that will come and get them and they will still get awards for the mileage they went. We know each of the boys can go at least 10 miles because they have already had a practice run to Dingle Pond. It was very successful and we have high hopes for the boys. This counts towards their CENTENNIAL AWARD that we have been working on all year, so please have them come, if at all possible.

If you have ANY questions, please call us!

We will be working on bikes during scouts and making sure they are in order to BIKE THE BEAR for the next two weeks. Please have your boys bring their bikes and we will help them, where necessary. We are also setting up new patrols and now have new leaders for the patrols.
