Folks,
Sorry this is coming out as late as it is.
Tomorrow morning, Chris Gilkes and I will be running several scouts through a few requirements for the First Class Rank. More specifically, we will be going over the Navigation portion of the rank requirements.
We were going to start at my house (2540 Stoneridge Dr, Colorado Springs Colorado 80919)
at 0830 and head out from there. It will only take about an hour and a half, maybe two hours depending on how much horseplay occurs.

Anyway, equipment needed will be a water bottle, smartphone or GPS your Scout is familiar with, and a compass (I will provide a couple as well).
Weather forecast says partly cloudy starting after 0800, and a slight chance of rain, so appropriate gear is advised (rain isn’t supposed to start until 1300 or so).
We will be in the neighborhood ranging from the highest point of Mountain Shadows Park down to the Verizon Building complex parking lot doing some Geocaching and orienteering.
Anyway, let me know if you will attend.
Dan
