Running water is available at the back of the dining hall for emergencies.
Hand sanitizer and toilet paper will be provided.
Outhouses are located at the campsite.

If bad weather prevents us from camping outside, we may use an overnight lock-in at the church as a backup option. We will communicate any weather-related changes as we get closer.

π Bottle Rocket & Sidewalk Chalk Night ποΈ
π
Wednesday, June 24th
π‘ 6:30 PM
π TCLC, 171 Zion Hill Rd, Salem NH
Pack 160βs Bottle Rocket & Sidewalk Chalk Night is a fun, hands-on outdoor activity night where Scouts get to be creative, curious, and a little messy!
Scouts will build and launch their own bottle rockets, learning through trial and error as they test how design, water, air pressure, and balance affect how high their rockets can fly. Itβs a great mix of STEM, teamwork, excitement, and friendly cheering as each rocket takes off.
Alongside the launches, Scouts and siblings can enjoy sidewalk chalk art, decorating the pavement with colorful drawings, Pack spirit, games, designs, and creative masterpieces. It gives everyone a chance to participate, even between rocket launches, and keeps the night fun and relaxed for all ages.
Families should plan for an outdoor evening with lots of movement, creativity, and laughter. Scouts may get wet during the bottle rocket portion, so clothes that can handle water and outdoor play are recommended.
Itβs a simple, high-energy Pack night focused on fun, creativity, science, and spending time together as a Scout community.
