Troop 221 encourages our scouts to plan and execute challenging outings. The Troop holds monthly campouts and travel out of state for summer camp. We also send two or more Scout crews on High Adventure. In early Summer, we alternate between a Buffalo National River canoe trip and a West Texas road trip. Additionally, the Troop heads to the Ouachita Mountains in the fall for our annual overnight backpacking trip.
