Great Hike; or, The Pride of the Khaki Troop

A band of eager Boy Scouts from Hickory Ridge gathers for their most ambitious outing yet. After weeks of planning, the patrols set off on a long march that carries them far beyond the familiar streets of their town. Along the way, the boys put their newly learned skills to the test, from navigating rough trails to solving the little problems that pop up in the wilderness.

The friendly competition between the Wolf, Beaver and Eagle patrols adds a lively spark to the journey, turning ordinary challenges into moments of humor and teamwork. As they trek together, each scout discovers a bit more about his own grit and the value of looking out for a companion. Listeners will feel the crunch of pine needles underfoot and hear the chatter of boys learning what true perseverance means, all framed by the warm, adventurous spirit of classic scout life.
