We will leave for Doc Rocks 10:15 and eat our durable sack lunch before MB class starts @ 11:00. With 2 MB classes (Geology and Mining in Society) the class will take 4 hours. Adults and Scouts will tour the museum and execute gem/ore mining at the level they have purchased to participate. Following the class, we will depart for The Blowing Rock and leverage a short (~.5 mile) hike to get group photos at the scenic offerings and view the conservatory. There will be full Troop 48 style campfire following dinner (patrols plan accordingly).
Sunday there will be a Troop 48 church service and unscheduled free time before lunch. Our departure to Linville Falls will follow, consisting of a nice tour and our arrival @ CHPC around 6:30 PM.
