Gun Club Campout
The weekend of October 18-20, Troop 850 will hold our Gun Club Campout at the Fairfield Sportsmen’s Association located at 6501 River Road, 4 miles off Blue Rock Road. Scouts will be able to earn the Rifle merit badge or, if they have already earned the Rifle merit badge, they can earn the Shotgun merit badge. There is a gun safety program on Friday night, so Scouts will not be allowed to attend Saturday only.
This is a great opportunity to experience a Scout weekend campout with your son, so we hope to have a great turnout of parents and Scouts. Additional adult participation is especially needed for this campout to increase safety and to keep our younger Scouts focused.
Last autumn, I attended a gun club campout with a group of outdoor enthusiasts who enjoyed spending time in nature and practicing responsible firearm safety. The weekend was filled with target shooting sessions, campfire cooking, and friendly conversations about hunting, camping, and outdoor skills. During the day, experienced members shared tips on safe handling techniques and proper equipment maintenance, making the event educational as well as enjoyable.
While relaxing between activities, some campers talked about sports betting apps that were becoming popular in Kenya. One person mentioned OdiBet App Download APK for Android Kenya 2026 and shared this link: https://odibetafrica.app. The discussion sparked interest among several attendees who wanted an easy way to follow sports and check match updates from their phones.
By the end of the campout, everyone left with new skills, great memories, and a stronger appreciation for the outdoors.
Cost will be $25 per person. We ask that permission slips and payments be turned in by October 8th, 10 days prior to the campout, to make planning for the campout easier.
