The Trail
You and your patrol will face a series of thrilling challenges and stations along the trail, testing your skills, teamwork, and resourcefulness. Each station represents a vital aspect of life on the Oregon Trail – from fire building and river crossing to hunting and cooking. You’ll need to work together to overcome these challenges and make your way safely to the trail’s end.
The Rules
At the start of the game Patrols decide their level based on their age and experience:
Level 1 | Newest Patrols | $100 |
Level 2 | Intermediate Patrols | $80 |
Level 3 | Oldest Patrols | $60 |
This tiered allocation provides an advantage to the newest patrols, helping them start with a higher amount of money to account for their relative inexperience.
Rewards
Patrols will be awarded tokens at the end of each event based on their performance, scout spirit, and teamwork.
Winning Patrol
The winning Patrol is determined by the results of each station, along with scout spirit. We will also be handing out awards for each station.
Wagons
Covered Wagons were an important part of the Oregon Trail. Bonus points will be awarded for any patrols that come with decorated wagons. We will also have separate awards for wagons and how they are designed.
