Camping with Pack 421
Camping is one of the best ways to get your family out of the house, into nature, away from screens, and exploring the world around us.
We go camping at least two times per year: once in the Fall and once in the Spring. Each trip is designed to be within 60-90min of Austin and good for families with any experience level in camping: beginner to expert. For example, recent campouts have taken us to:
Bastrop State Park
Buescher State Park
Inks Lake State Park
Colorado Bend State Park
Black Rock LCRA Park
Emma Long Metropolitan Park.
Campouts include den activities, meals, campfire skits & jokes, family time, and lots of exploration. Scout will camp in their family’s tent, and we can provide tents if needed.

Together, we do our best.
Scouting is a place where scouts learn to be better citizens through active and fun programming. It's also where adults can strengthen their family bonds, hone their leadership skills, and guide the next generation.
We have fun and explore new adventures together, every time we meet.
