The thrill of our High Adventure Bases runs far and wide across America, and nobody in the world is better at sharing those experiences than theScouts.  Nobody       

Nobody offers more exhilarating or a wider variety of high adventure for young people than the Boy Scouts of America. Through high adventure experiences, the Boy Scouts of America leaves lasting memories with youth and fosters development in character and leadership.

Challenge yourself at BSA's High Adventure Bases. From the aquatic adventures of Florida Sea Base to the canoeing or winter camping challenge of Northern Tier , from the backpacking expeditions at Philmont Scout Ranch to the adventure sports programs at The Summit Bechtel Reserve , these experiences will shape you and teach you about yourself. Will you answer the call?


                                                                                                                                                                                           

 In July 2013 6 of our scouts participated a High Adventure trip to Sea Base in the Florida Keys enjoying the Out Island Adventure. They paddled out and spent 4 days on a remote 100 acre Island 7 miles off the coast. Once arriving at the island they waded onto the island carrying all their food, water and equipment used during the adventure. Their first experience on the Island was having their dried eggs stolen by an Island raccoon who shared them with Steve, the Island Key Deer. There were many Key Deer on the Island and they were all named Steve. Steve continually tried to steal their food and made himself at home.

While on Munson Island they enjoyed snorkeling on pristine coral reefs, trolling for sportfish, kayaking through red mangroves and cruising on the water with their Island mates Olan & Roland. They also enjoyed preparing and eating their catch and sharing with the other crews on the Island.

The Troop looks forward to their next adventure to Sea Base. This summer, July 2015, 14 boys will be enjoying an adventure to The Summit in West Virginia where they will partake in many activities. Some of the things they will experience in mountain biking, skateboarding, 3/4 mile zip line, climbing, shooting and much more. Among these activities they will also perform a service project. They are looking forward to this next adventure.
