Fort Adams Barracks Keep Troop 9: Worcester Dry During Their Weekend Overnight

Originally planning to stay in tents on the historic Parade Field, Troop 9 opted instead to sleep in the comfort of our restored overnight barracks.
 
April 22, 2010 - PRLog -- Newport, RI- Historic Fort Adams – Nearly 30 scouts and parents from Boy Scout Troop 9: Worcester, MA enjoyed their overnight stay in Historic Fort Adams on Friday and Satur-day April 16 & 17, 2010.   Originally planning to stay in tents on the historic Parade Field, Troop 9 opted instead to sleep in the comfort of our restored overnight barracks.  Following a day full of activities at the Newport Naval War College, the scouts were grateful to replace sleeping in tents on the wet ground with sleeping on the barracks padded bunks fully protected from the elements.  
The Fort Adams Trust offers group packages for both tented and indoor overnight stays both of which can include guided tours of this National Historic Landmark.  Our restored Overnight Bar-racks includes four modern bathrooms, a common room with a kitchen area, sink, mini fridge, oak tables and benches, as well as, three sleeping rooms containing a total of 38 bunk spaces.  Both the barracks and tented overnights are seasonal, opening in early April, and are booked on a first come first serve basis though October. Availability is limited, so contact us soon to reserve an overnight stay for your group. For more information about these and other events please visit http://ww.fortadams.org or call (401)841-0707.
