Geocache Description:

We have permission from the property owner to place this cache! The owner is an Eagle Scout and promotes Scouting and Geocaching. This is my first hide, with the help of my dad. It is a step toward earning the new Geocaching Merit Badge.

This is an ammo box filled with items to promote Cub Scouting and Boy Scouting.


Please leave the knot tying sheet and rope. I have been practicing my knot tying skills. I would like you to try a knot and see how you do. Please post which knot you tried and how you did in your log.
THIS IS AN AMMO CAN HIDDEN ON ROUTE 22. COOL!
In the original cache you will find:
A Watchung Trail Map.
Several Scout patches and pins.
A world map.
A baseball bobblehead.
Stickers
Discount cards for some local retails and restaurants that support scouting
a Scout Gear catalog
information on Cub Scout and Boy Scout camps
a deck of cards,
Cub Scout bumper sticker
a Geocaching Patch for the FTF.

Please try to keep this cache stocked with Scouting patches, items, and promotional material.

I hope you enjoy my first hide!

I am a new Boy Scout, and I bridged this past March. I was a Cub Scout for the past 5 years.

My favorite things about Cub Scouts were the Pinewood Derby, hiking and camping. I hope that all boys that find this cache that are not scouts will become scouts and have fun too.

Thanks to Chinster for the ammo can.

Update: I am now a Tenderfoot and enjoy reading every log note
