Hyack Camp badges

During the Hyack Festival, New Westminster Scouting hosts a camp in Queens Park. This was established in 1987 and the silver anniversary was in 2012. One of highlights is firing rifles at the Sapperton Fish and Game Club firing range under the Arenex in Queens Park. This is represented in the 1999 “target” badge. The other highlight is the giant campfire in the baseball field. This is represented in the 2003 badge. Groups from the lower mainland and Washington attend.
