Bolton, MA

Venturing to Bolton, MA, Troop 54 will make our first visit to Robsham Scout Reservation, home of Camp Resolute. We have reserved the Rifle Range Cabin, which includes electricity, a fireplace, a wood stove and bunks for 30 people. An adjacent field provides space for tenting for those who want a quieter evening (or who don't fit).

Plans for Saturday are under development - we plan to build igloos and possibly try ice fishing. Some leadership training is also possible. We will have plenty of time for some gourmet camp cooking.

Travel There:

Meet at the Immaculate Conception Church parking lot at 3:00 PM Friday for departure by 3:30 PM (time subject to change).

Travel to the camp is approximately 30 minutes.

Estimated return to the church is 12:00 PM Sunday.
