It's time for the Luxury Campout, January 24-26, 2025!
We "camp out" in a house in Ocean City, MD (5 12th Street). Saturday, we get up, have breakfast (cooked for you by the adults) and then head out to "hike" the entire stretch of the boardwalk. At the end of the hike we are surrounded by arcades and beach food establishments. Lunch will be purchased there, or at a nearby fast food location. Scouts should bring along cash for lunch and for the arcades. It's up to the parents how much the Scouts spend at the arcades.
After the arcades, when we're all broke and have exchanged our game coupons for cheap toys, we meet the adults and hike back.
We hike back to the house after the fun day for a pizza-feast and scout fun (quiet time at 9 pm for the neighbors).
Sunday, we get up, clean the house and head home after a quick cold breakfast. We're usually home by 1 pm or so. Fees are $125 per person (this covers food and house fees).
More notes:
Bring a pad and sleeping bag. We sleep ON the beds (over the sheets), if you are lucky enough to get a bed. Everyone else is on the floor.
No mess kits needed: everything to eat with and eat on is provided.
This is the only trip where electronics are allowed. There are lots of TVs with HDMI inputs to hook your console up to, but no cables to connect, so bring your own (such as Amazon Fire, Google Chromecast, etc). Anything you bring must fit in your bag to go in a car trunk.
