Every year since 2017, Troop 553 had taken a family trip, then a high adventure trip, and we would alternate back and forth. Here, you will see the past family trips and high adventure trips that Troop 553 has completed, along with correlating pictures with the events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2021<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the summer of 2021, Troop 553 was fortunate enough to take a family trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania. On this trip, our Scout family had multiple opportunities, including: visiting the Antique Car Museum and Echo Caverns; visiting The National Civil War Museum, in Harrisburg, PA; touring the Pennsylvania Capital and a 2 mile hike up Hawk Rock; visiting the Hershey Story Museum; Chocolate World; Hershey Gardens; and Hershey Park. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
