 November Camping Trip

 
 

Camp Alpine: Alpine, NJ

Dates: Saturday, Nov 22 – Sunday, Nov 23
Scout Lead: Swara Thakur

Adult Lead: Mrs. Brazell / Ms. Rajaram

Cost per Scout: $35

 

Notes:

  • Registration is now open, and will close on Friday, Nov 14 at 12:00 p.m.

  • We rely on parent volunteers to make these trips possible! Each outing depends on chaperones and drivers to help transport Scouts and gear to and from the campsite (approximately one hour away).

  • These overnight trips are a wonderful part of the Scouting experience, and we encourage new parents to join in—they’re fun, rewarding, and a great way to get involved.

  • Additional details—such as the packing list, activities, and logistics—will be shared as the trip approaches.

  • As temperatures drop, Scouts should consider investing in a sleeping pad, long underwear, wool socks, and a winter-appropriate sleeping bag.

Calling All Creative Patriots!

 

Design the Official 2026 Lenape Trail Klondike Derby Patch

 

Patriotism. Freedom. Frost-covered trails. Scouts working together against winter’s challenges, just as patriots once united against the odds. Channel the Northern NJ Revolutionary spirit with Washington's signal posts, messengers through icy woods and frozen encampments, colonial flags, lanterns in the night, sleds on the trail, don't forget those cannons, and the courage to persevere.

 

This is your chance for creativity to meet history with this years theme Klondike: Signals of Freedom: A Revolutionary Klondike

Path to Independence: A Community Guided Walk

 
 

Join us for a community event, a short, educational walk for all ages, celebrating Millburn’s role in America’s journey to freedom.

 

Take a short walk through Millburn’s rich Revolutionary past, beginning at Vauxhall Road, near where the Battle of Springfield unfolded in 1780. Follow the path to the historic Hessian House, then to the Revolutionary War kiosk in Taylor Park, and finally to the Battle of Springfield Rock in front of Town Hall. Along the way, local volunteers will share stories of bravery, strategy, and sacrifice that shaped our nation’s fight for independence, a living tribute as America approaches its 250th anniversary.

 

This guided walk will be led by long-time Millburn resident Vince Nascone and Millburn–Short Hills Historical Society intern Shaurya Tanna, who will share their knowledge and passion for preserving Millburn’s Revolutionary heritage.
