In 2003, 361 individuals took part in the Cavalcade program. The best
place for information is Selden Ball's web page. Be sure to read the
advice from former Philmont wrangler, Josh Green. Selden's web page has
several journals from past Cavalcades, including two written by young
people from our troop and crew.
