Warwick Troop 51 at Rose Island X close
Warwick Troop 51 is famous for having built our Adirondack Chairs in the spring of 2000. The chairs were so well made, it wasn't until September 2005 they needed to be re-painted.
Tent Set up on Rose Island Beach Debris Clean up on Rose Island
On Friday (the first evening) sleeping tents and a mess tent are set up alongside Preservation Wall at Rose Island. A good night's sleep is needed for all the work to be done on Saturday. Scouts gather and count beach debris twice a year on Earth Day (April) and in September (Get the Drift and Bag It). The trash is taken into Newport for proper disposal.
