Annual Traditions
The few events we do every single year: the district's spring and fall camporees, our charter partner's Fishing Derby, and Campsgiving.
Spring Camporee
Every spring the Aquia District brings its troops together for a weekend of patrol competition, and newly elected Order of the Arrow candidates are called out at the campfire. Recent themes: Pirates of Aquia (2024, IWLA), The Royal Court of Izaak Walton (2025, IWLA) and Dirty Jobs (2026, Rappahannock Camp).
Fall Camporee
The district's fall camporee is a themed weekend of patrol stations and campfire skits. Recent themes: ZURVIVOR (2023, Curtis Park), FALLOUT (2024, Flying Circus Aerodrome) and America 250 (2026, Curtis Park).
Fishing Derby
Our biggest service weekend: scouts help our charter partner, the Izaak Walton League, run its community fishing derby for local kids, then camp on the grounds.
Campsgiving
Our own Thanksgiving campout at the IWLA grounds, held every November since 2023. Patrols plan and cook a full Thanksgiving-style feast over camp stoves, fires and Dutch ovens.
