Jockey Hollow Trail Patch Requirements

Review the guide (which can be downloaded here) prior to the hike so as to familiarize yourself with the trail map, patch questions, etc. The Guide will be emailed to the Den Leaders as well as posted to the website

After completing the hike, your hike leader will test your knowledge of the trail at the end of the hike with a quiz.  This is a great opportunity to learn about American history right in your own backyard!  Scouts must complete the entire 5 mile hike and answer the questions to qualify for the patch.  Answers to all questions are available on the trail.  Your hike leader will point them out as you go.
​

If you have Scouts who because of disabilities, etc. cannot complete the 5 mile hike, please see the hike leader, Tom Shaw.
