Fort Mifflin Tour
We’ll continue to stay locally to keep costs low. This month we’ll take a day trip to Fort Mifflin to learn this importance of this place during the Revolutionary War.

We will provide service at the Cradle of Liberty Council’s Liberty Jam, promoting Sea Scouts and Ship 610. We do not plan to camp at the event, allowing Scouts to camp with their troops if they wish. Details will follow.

It’s like a license to drive a boat. The Boating Safety Education Certificate is a pretty big deal for boaters. We’ll take the all-day course at Delaware County Field & Stream. The class is free, but you’ll need to bring lunch, snacks and drinks for the day. You’ll want to take notes to help you pass the test at the end of the course.
