*****Formally known as the Cub Scout Klondike

Cub Scout Iditarod

WHO - This event is for Cub Scout and their families. 

WHAT - The Cub Scout Iditarod (formerly the Cub Scout Klondike Derby) is an annual winter event based on the heritage and history of the Alaskan Gold Rush and the trials of the great dog sled racers of the Iditarod. The event is designed for patrols to go from station to station with a traditional Klondike sled to test their skills and leadership ability in the outdoor winter environment. 

WHERE - Camp Norse - 112 Parting Ways Road Kingston, MA 02364

Parking available after entering Camp Norse's main gate, you will see a house and a metal maintenance building on your left. Keep driving under the stone archway. To the left is a large parking lot- that is where you leave your car for the duration of the event. If you unit is camping out, cars may unload gear and drive trailers to the site but must remain in the parking lot over night and during the day. 

WHY - The Iditarod will give Cub Scouts the opportunity to work on outdoor survival skills- particularly those required for winter conditions-as well as the opportunity to work as a team at various stations and activities throughout camp. There is also a chili/chowder cook off, for Cub Scouts to work on their cooking skills! Cub Scouts will leave camp with a patch to show off their accomplishments!
