Beaumont Scout Reservation offers program opportunities during the “off-season” to Scouts and units. These off season programs allow units to use cookie cutter program that is provided by the council for their camp outs at Beaumont. These programs are also open to Scouts who may not have the oppor-tunity to attend their unit’s monthly activities. Didn’t get a chance to ride the ATVs this summer at camp? No, problem. This year Beaumont Scout Reservation Second Season includes 3 ATV camps at Beaumont. Boy Scouts and Venturers will learn the safety techniques for safely operating an All-Terrain 4 Wheeler. They will also receive some instruction on the Automotive Maintenance merit badge. Sign up quickly, because these spots won’t last long. Registration the day of the Program will take place at the Augustus Training Center
