The Troop will be taking up to 2 crews (16 youth, 8 adults) to Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico.
The cost of the trip will be $2,600 which includes transportation, meals, shirts, hats, souvenirs, spending money, a truly all inclusive trip. We've budgeted for plenty of extras so you won't need to spend anymore as we included a generous "kick back" to offset incidentals and any extras you might want to purchase. See Assistant Scoutmaster, Christopher McMahan for more information. More information, and a kickoff meeting will be held soon to review details
Philmont Scout Ranch Address: 17 Deer Run Rd; Cimarron, NM 87714
