Thursday - Day 4. Again much of a repeat of day with everyone working on Merit Badges, advancements
and just plain fun. We all survived last nights foil dinner meals while three scouts spent the night in a shelter they
built themselves for the Wilderness Survival Merit Badge. Some Scouts have already completed their original
Merit Badges and are moving on to new ones. One Scout Master conference and two Boards of Review have
been completed. We now have two new First Class Scouts. Weather has cooled down some making the days more
tolerable but the nights even cooler. Who knew 56 degrees could feel so cold.

Wednesday - Day 3. Again much of a repeat of day with everyone working on Merit Badges, advancements
and just plain fun. Matt C was the first camper to qualify in Archery for the entire camp this week.
We had even more rain today canceling some of the evening activities but the troop
get in a Troop swim during which we saw a fantastic double rainbow coming out of the lake.

Tuesday - Day 2. pretty much a repeat of day with everyone working on Merit Badges, advancements,
vespers and just plain fun. We did have some rain but the most exciting event was a leaders crash
out of his tent during the night.

Monday - Day 1. Almost everyone got a full nights sleep while the temperature
dropped into the low 60's. Everyone started the day with a hearty breakfast and went
off to their first day of Merit Badge classes.

Here are a few shots of the day.
