  1. Last year I purchased a couple extra Green Jeeps to carry around with me for photo opportunities vs. keeping actual TBs out of circulation. I am having trouble finding a place to purchase this year's Red Jeeps. I can only find the Jeep Commander in Black not Red. Anyone know where you can purchase these online? Thanks, BoatDaddy
  2. Some of the volunteers in Cub Scout Packs have recognized the synergy of geocaching and Cub Pack programs. It can help you meet the National Summetime Pack Award/Pins, Outdoor Activity Award, Leave No Trace Award, and a number of cub scout rank specific requirements. I've started a discussion on the topic of "Treasure Hiking" as I've named it at http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=162779

  5. "Treasure Hiking is an outdoor program for Cub Scout Packs that kids (& parents too!) will absolutely love. At the same time it promotes a large number of scouting ideals. This combination is a guaranteed success for your Pack. Visit www.treasurehiking.com for all the details on this exciting program." Last summer I got my Pack involved in geocaching - an outdoor "sport" enjoyed by hundreds of thousands worldwide - where there are "treasures" hidden in public parks right around the corner that you can find using an electronic device called a GPS unit. I quickly realized that our Pack could augment our summer Pack Program significantly by participating in hikes that included geocaching and other scouting ideals. The program was a great success. As an owner of a scouting based business, www.soarol.com, I decided that this would be a great way to give back to the scouting community and share a great idea that all Packs could use. Over the last few months I have fully documented how a Pack can use geocaching. I have named this program Treasure Hiking to help differentiate the program components that were added and are scouting specific. To help share the idea, I have setup a dedicated website at www.treasurehiking.com. On this website you can learn what Treasure Hiking and geocaching are, follow the steps to create your own Pack Treasure Hiking Program, and the steps to a successful Treasure Hiking with the boys. I hope you all find as much enjoyment with this activity as the families in my Pack and I have. Michael Kabot President - SOAR www.soarol.com mkabot@soarol.com
