FCF Brush Poppin' Trace (Feb 21-23)
Hello campers, adventurers, and enthusiastic frontiersmen!
It’s 2025, and there’s no better way to kick off the year than by joining us
for an unforgettable weekend of camping and camaraderie! Mark your calendars
for February 21-23, when the Shawnee Trail Chapter of the Frontiersman
Camping Fellowship will gather for the highly anticipated Brush Poppin’
Trace. This is your chance to dust off your gear and immerse yourself in
black powder shooting, primitive archery, flint and steel fire starting, and
the art of knife and hawk throwing. Plus, you’ll get to showcase your
cast-iron cooking skills and flaunt your finest pre-1840 attire.
This event promises not only exciting activities but also an incredible
sense of fellowship with some of the best men and boys around. Everyone
loves a bit of friendly competition, and we’ll have prizes for the winners!
Don’t miss out on the special Young Buck blanket, where our seasoned
Old-Timers will place delightful goodies for the boys to choose
from—multiple times, as long as supplies last! If you're ready to advance
from Frontiersman to Buckskin, be sure to submit your application by
February 15. We’ll host testing during the camp so you can take that next
big step in your adventure journey.
To ensure we plan an incredible experience for everyone, we ask that you
pre-register online through the North Texas District site or at this link:
https://brushfire.com/northtexas/RR/594690. Please remember, everyone aged
18 and over must complete the online MINISTRY SAFE Background Check and
Video Training course, unless you’ve done it in the past year. The fee for
the weekend is just $35 for Old Timers and Young Bucks, with a $5 discount
for Lifetime Members. But hurry! Registering after February 8 will incur an
additional $5 fee, so don’t let that happen to you!
Let’s make this gathering a fantastic start to the year, and help grow the
Shawnee Trail Chapter back to its full glory! Reach out to your friends who
haven’t camped with us in a while, invite them along, and let’s create
memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t wait to see you all there, and
remember—it all starts with you!
