CRATER DISTRICT WEBELOS KLONDIKE DERBY
Part of the history that shaped our nation
lies in the chapter unfolded in the Great North Country of Alaska.
There men traversed unbelievable distances and encountered tremendous
obstacles - but they moved onward with sleds pulled by huskies. Prospectors
from the Juneau area went into the interior of Alaska to prospect for gold
in the Upper Yukon. The rich gold mines around Fortmile were discovered in
1886. The Birch Creek deposits were found in 1899. All across the frozen
wastes of Alaska and Yukon the prospectors carried their never ending quest
for gold farther into the wilderness.
It is in this tradition that the Klondike Derby is spirited. Sleds, either
home made or store bought, are pulled by Webelos serving as huskies. At each
station traversed to a practical problem involving basic Webelos skills will
be encountered. After working out the problem or performing the task the
team will have its tally card marked and then be off to the next area.Reservation.
