Manassas Battlefield Hike!

These days, it can be difficult for Scouts to get together for outdoors adventure. COVID-19 restrictions have limited the number of individuals that can gather. So instead of holding large troop-sized events, Troop 581 has shifted towards smaller outdoors activities. Recently, the troop hiked the Manassas Battlefield. Scouts were organized into smaller groups to comply with COVID restrictions while enjoying the outdoors. The Manassas Battlefield offers great trails to hike while providing a chance to view the site of the first major battle of the Civil War.  If you are looking for a nearby place to hike, consider the Manassas Battlefield. You won’t be disappointed.
