Over the weekend, I registered our troop for the Scout Discount Program at Emergency Essentials. The program offers scouts and their leaders a 10% discount on regular priced items. The items must be relevant to Scouting including sleeping bags, tents, backpacks, stoves, mess kits, flashlights, water filters, other gear and camping food. See this flyer for more details…
Speaking of camp meals and discount pricing, Emergency Essentials has frequent sales on Mountain House freeze dried food! I realize this isn’t nearly as good as the foil dinners a few of our scouts bring on hikes, but MH ranks up there for ease and convenience without sacrificing on flavor. A few of my personal favorites are Beef Stroganoff, Chili Mac and Lasagna with meat sauce. Check in with Emergency Essentials to stock up as we start getting out more with warmer weather coming.
