Dear Scouting Families and Leaders,
Stand The Watch. Serve With Honor.
This July, Scouts are invited to be part of something truly special.
📍 Jefferson Barracks Park
📅 July 23–27, 2025
🕯️ Take an overnight volunteer shift beside The Wall That Heals
🏕️ Camp on the Historic Jefferson Barracks Stable Grounds
🚶♂️ Explore historic hikes and museum exhibits
🫡 Earn service hours through meaningful remembrance
This is more than a campout — it’s a watch, a vigil, a moment to connect with history.
Scouts will rotate in quiet service beside the Wall That Heals: a 375-foot replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Shifts run between 6:00 PM and 6:00 AM.
Units are welcome to attend for one night or more. Interpretive experiences and commemorative patches are part of this once-in-a-lifetime program.
Registration is open, but space is limited. Don’t miss your chance to Stand The Watch.
UNITS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO CAMP FOR SCOUTS TO PARTICIPATE
This Event is for ScoutsBSA, Venturing and Sea Scout Units.
Those attending are responsible for their own leadership, equipment and meals during The Watch.
Limited trailer parking available. No Ground Fires.
