Come join the San Gabriel Valley Council Boy Scouts of America for an educational tour of the various religious faiths in Monrovia in the Religious Diversity Hike III on Saturday, June 14, 2014.
The event is open to all youths of any organizations. All family members of any age are most welcome.
In this event, you will be able to meet community and religious leaders of various faiths, youths of any organization and at the same time visit the places of worship that you may not have been to before. Not only that, you can get out of your comfort zone and do some physical exercise, and perhaps learn something new about you, others and the community. It would be a great experience to do something new or different.
The Religious Diversity Hike is about five miles long. Come early as the opening ceremony will start at 8:15 AM. If you miss the opening ceremony, you may join us at any stop during the hike. And if five miles is not long enough for you, there is a Sunset Hike in Monrovia before the tour of the various faiths. It is also about five miles long, and it starts early–at 6:00 AM! Scouts completing both hikes will be able to meet one of the 10 miles requirements of the Hiking Merit Badge!
On top of that, scouts may be able to complete some requirements of the Geocaching Merit Badge. Counselors will be available to help those scouts that are interested in this merit badge. Invite your family and friends to participate in this hike. Hope to see you there!
