**************************************************

The next Troop outing is a cycling trip on Saturday, June 7, 2025

We will ride from The Huffman Prairie Flying Field, passing the National Museum of the United States Air Force, Eastwood Metro Park to downtown Dayton. We will visit the Wright Brothers Bicycle Shop and then proceed to Carillon Park.

This will be 10 - 12 miles on bicycles, we will transport bicycles in a Troop Trailer to Huffman Prairie and from Carillon Park.

This outing will explore the rich bicycle heritage of the Wright Brothers which was significant in them solving the challenges of powered flight. Huffman Prairie is where they flew until running out of gasoline, we will see the flyer at Carillon Park.

Cost for entrance to Carillon Park is the only expected cost, ($10) Scouts should plan on water on the ride, and a pack lunch at the Wright Brother Bicycle Shop which will be transported with the Support Vehicles.

This may sound ambitious, but with paved, safe, trails the distance is easy.

Please let me know if you have questions about this outing, and your Scout’s readiness to participate.
