Our website www.cherokeeareabsa.com has the Philmont info. In a nutshell,
the contingent will fly out of Chattanooga Saturday, July 12, and return
Saturday, July 26. They will join a troop from Dalton, GA, and share a bus
to Cimarron where they will spend Sunday night. Early Monday July 14 they
will check in and start the processing to go on the trail.
If people are interested, I will be glad to send any info they need. The
fee is $1,200 and covers all expenses except personal equipment and
souvenirs.
