We will be driving straight with no stops for about 8 1/2 hours. This means no stops at gas stations or the like. So….if you want snacks on the trip you will have to bring them.
On the way out we will be having breakfast on the bus around 6-6:30 and then lunch around 11 AM or so.
On the way back we will be having a sack lunch for lunch and will be stopping in Van Horn at Subway for supper.
As you are packing your food, keep this in mind.
We’ll see you tonight at 10 PM!

After Pathfinders on Sunday we will be making Tamales for the camporee over at the church. Can you help?
We need to make enough for about 45 people to eat for a full meal which means we need a lot of people to help.
It will probably take a good share of the afternoon to do everything, which means parts of it the more help we have the better.
No experience required btw.
