This year, on August 17th, Osage will be hosting a Bike Rally with stops for live music and the entire Mountain Nation is invited!  Some Big Waters alum should be attending, and new joiners are highly encouraged as well.  Dads and daughters are welcome to be on their bicycle, scooter, skates, whatever you want to use to keep up with the group (we won't go too fast or far) safely.  Our tentative schedule for biking and visiting bands in the area is below:

If you cannot make the whole thing, feel free to join or drop along the way, that's okay!  The venues have loved it when we roll in and bring the energy.  If you have any questions, please let your tribe leaders know.

​As we look ahead to the upcoming school year, the Blackhawk (Guides) and Mohican (Princesses) tribes combined their efforts for a Sunday morning "Dads & Donuts" event.  We invited both current members and potential recruits which allowed us to see old friends and make a few new ones.  In addition to the snacks, we brought along plenty of games like kickball, wiffleball, washer toss and frisbees to keep both the dads and kids occupied.  In spite of the rain, we had a great turnout and we're excited for all the new families that will join us at future campouts and events!
