Each year Troop 5 visits Yawgoog Scout Reservation. Yawgoog is located in Rockville, Rhode Island. At Yawgoog, Scouts can work on merit badges, earn awards, and have fun. Troop 5 visits Week 1 every year. Each week there is a different theme. When we stayed in 2003, the theme was Patriot Week. Themes in the past were Winter Wonderland, Star Wars, Politics, Safari, Super Heroes, and Animal Planet. There are three subcamps- Three-Point, Medicine Bow, and Sandy Beach. Each year, Troop 5 stays at campsite Wuttah in Medicine Bow.
