SU Fall Camp Out and Caving Adventure
Please put the Fall Camp Out on your troop calendar ***November 10-12th at INKS LAKE STATE PARK.
Check in Fri after 2pm/ check out of campsite by Sun 2pm
This will be a great camp out at a nearby State Park. The Service Unit has 10 campsites for our use that can accommodate up to 8 people each. Fees set at $10 per person so it is ok if your group is not 8 people as we will put small groups together. (Remember to count your safetywise adults).
This camp out is not a family camp out but you may call Inks Lake State Park (512-793-2223) to secure an additional campsite if you wish.
The Service Unit will host a campfire with Smores on Sat night. A Fall Tent Camping Patch for each girl will be included.
Your troop will be responsible for your own food and activity fees. ( $6 p/day adults & kids 13+). Kids under 13 can enter fee.

To register, please submit a list all the people attending the campout, I.E. your roster for your TTA along with $10 to Ronda.
If you have people doing either the Wild Cave Tour (50) or the Walking Cave Tour ($12), please submit lists and money to Amy Wallquist.
You do not need to camp to go on the cave tours. See below for details.
You can add one of these great options for your camp out:
Wild Cave Tour (for Brave Girl Scouts and Leaders 11 and older)
Cost: $50 per person (need knee pads, elbow pads, helmet, headlamp, and long pants; includes a shirt(please include shirt size with registration and extra patch) Amy Wallquist will lead this with a trained spelunker.
Walking Cave Tour (for Girl Scouts and leaders of any age who are not old enough or not quite so brave hearted enough for the wild cave tour at Longhorn Cavern. Cost: $12 per person; includes a patch for the Girl Scout.
These are per person options so it’s not necessary for your whole group to choose the same tour, as long as safety wise numbers are met within the tour group.
You need not attend the camp out to go on the cave tour. As long as we have one leader per tour, leaders can opt out of the wild cave tour and just send girls. I’m going on the Wild Cave Tour FOR SURE!!!
Ronda Spurlin is organizing the camp out and Amy Wallquist is organizing the Cave Tours.
