Monterey Bay Trekker Hike Program
The Monterey Bay Trekkers hiking program is an opportunity for Cub Scouts and their families to explore local hiking trails and parks in Monterey, San Benito and Santa Cruz Counties. Through the Trekkers program, Cub Scouts and their families will also learn why health and fitness are important for a long-lasting and productive life.
Pack 60 wants to encourage the families of all Cub Scouts in the Pack to explore the wonderful area we live in through this program. To make it easier, and more fun, the Pack will be organizing hikes to encourage group participation and the camaraderie of doing the hike as a group. It also makes it easier for the Pack to recognize the Cub Scouts who participate because there is a single person responsible for signing everyone up and organizing the purchase of the Trekker patches.
We recognize that not everyone who wants to do the hike will be able to work it into their families’ schedule. If you and your Cub Scout do any of the hikes outside the Pack structure and would like to have him recognized and presented with the Trekker patch, all you need to do is let your Den Leader know which hike you did and we will take care of getting the patch and awarding it to them at the next Pack meeting.
Finally, the Monterey Bay Trekkers program is for the entire family and the entire family can earn the patches. All we ask is a small donation to cover the cost of any additional patches you would like for yourself or siblings. The patches are $3 for the large center patch and $1 for each hike patch.
Have fun and I hope to see you on the local trails.
