Webelos Woods is designed to give first and second year Webelos Scouts and their parents a preview of the Boy Scouting experience.  The program reinforces Boy Scouting values, procedures, methods and skills.  It is an introduction to Boy Scouts being a "boy led" program versus the "adult led" program used in Cub Scouts.  Also, there is the thrill of camping in the outdoors at a Boy Scout style camp, which will foster a desire to continue Scouting.  This is an excellent time for each troop to show the Webelos in its area what the troop does and to recruit new scout for the troop.  Likewise, this is an excellent time for Webelos to visit with a variety of troops from your area, and learn which troop may be the best to join.
