Adjusted to the health and safety protocols, Dadventure still packs lots of fun into a “tiny” weekend.  Campers will be groups to move from event to event.

Many of the activities count towards Advancement Requirements. Get the early bird discount with your registration before Aug. 1.

August 23: Scout Day at the U.P State Fair in Escanaba
Scouters get free admission when in uniform! Units can put on a Scouting activity in the Big Tent area to showcase Scouting to the UP.
 
August 28-30: Kon Wapos Lodge Gathering at Bear Paw Scout Camp
Ordeal candidates will complete their Ordeal and join our brotherhood, as well as Ordeal members sealing their membership by becoming Brotherhood members. Those who were selected to be Vigil honor members will also hold their vigil on these weekends. For those not doing their Ordeal, the weekend will be filled with service projects to get our camps ready for the fall, as well as fellowship for everyone. Another focus is the election of the new Lodge Leadership.
