Black Jack Trail is an experience where the history of Quivira Scout Ranch is delved into, and some backpacking is done into the heart of The Ranch, leaving all big, fancy equipment behind. This is an opportunity for your Troop to go out with a minimum of equipment, have maximum fun, and use The Ranch to its fullest. There are endless program opportunities on our own Council Camp, and we urge every Troop to take advantage of them. BJT is open to troops any time, or units can attend in a group setting called the Council BJT has round robins in training backpacking map and compass LNT and others in the fall and spring. The next Black Jack Trail is October 23-24.

Following in the tradition of the mountain men and trappers of the early 1800’s, Scouts and Scouters will gather for the 45th Trappers’ Rendezvous. Make plans to meet at Harvey County Park West for this annual event. Download the 2022 Trappers’ Herald for more information!
FREE ADULTS’ REGISTRATION FOR TRAPPERS!!!You know the priceless impact of the Scouting program. Every Eagle Board of Review, every time a member of Scouts BSA steps up bravely into a situation their fellow students shy away from, every Scouting Success story, starts with someone who took the time to reach out and share the opportunity of Scouting with a youth or family. THAT MOMENT, is when lives are changed.We are asking that EACH Scouts BSA Troop work to change 2 more lives this fall. There are over 110 active Troops in Quivira Council. In taking this challenge on, we are committing to changing the lives of over 200 more youth!John Ferguson and his Trapper’s Rendezvous 2022 team believe enough in this endeavor that they will be waiving the Trappers Rendezvous registration fees of 2 adults from every unit that registers 2 new Scouts BSA or Venturers between now and Nov. 29th. (In an effort to not hinder Trapper’s Registrations, the registration fees will be credited back to each participating Units FHOD.)Thank you for helping us change the lives of so many youth!
