   How do you not know what a klondike derby is. It is a weekend camping trip where you compete in all different activities against other troops from your state.

   For your information, a Klondike derby is a weekend camping trip where various scout troops compete in a variety of activities. You will always be competing against other troops from your state. This is a boy scout only event.
   Bringing extra rope seems to be a good idea. Not only do you need to bring extra rope, though, you need to bring an assortment of extra supplies. I sometimes find that a lot of people aren’t really prepared, and end up asking others on the trip for supplies. I would advise anyone who plans to go to bring a little more than needed, because it is always better to have a little more than a little less!
