Klondike Derby

WINTER CAMPING AND INTER-UNIT COMPETITION

Thanks for attending in 2025!

Thank you to all units who attended one of the events in 2025! We had a great turnout, and thankfully more snow than we had at last year's events!

Klondike Derby participants were offered the opportunity to provide service by cutting blankets for the Ronald McDonald House of MN. This allowed scouts to record service hours toward their rank advancements or Merit Badges. 182 youth and 77 adults attended the event providing 138 hours of service and preparing 61 blankets for the families at Ronald McDonald house of Minnesota. Special thanks to the Order of The Eastern Star for providing administration and materials for this service project  

The Klondike Derby events also provided  189 pounds of food donations to Open Cupboard Community Food Shelf.

If you have any feedback to give about the events, or things you would like to see from them, email Activities Director John McDermid at [email protected].

We look forward to seeing you in 2026!
