SWC History
Since 1968 Cobb County's
Districts and the SWC Scoutmasters have built upon a grand history of winter
camping to
create traditions that are unique to SWC. This section shares some of those
that make SWC the unique event that it is.
Even as the old Cobb District—Colossal Cobb—was broken apart in 1998, the three
resulting Districts continued to use SWC as a Tri-District event to bring Cobb
County Scouters together for training, fun and fellowship.
Cobb County's Scouting Traditions
What SWC is all about.
Homer's Story
How it all started is best told from the words of the late Homer Powell,
the first Scoutmaster of SWC. Read his thoughts and struggles as
SWC began as an event to teach Scout Leaders that they could take their Scouts
camping in the winter.

crafted and executed games. Just finishing a challenge, sometimes, is reward in
itself. Here's a list of previous game details for use in your Pack, Troop or
Crew.
