THE JOCKEY HOLLOW TRAIL PATCH!!
What?? You're telling me that Scouts and earn a patch for completing the 5 mile hike?? Oh yeah! Patriots Path Council offers the award as one of several historical hikes offered in New Jersey. 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. After completing the hike, your hike leader will test your knowledge of the trail at the end of the hike with a quiz. Former Pack 133 Committee Chairman Tom Shaw prepared a presentation (below) to train Cub Scout leaders at the University of Scouting. Check it out!
