Winter Campout - November 7-8, 2008










Wow! We had 12 scouts and 3 leaders participate in a fun camp out at Bott's Camp ground in the South Fork Canyon about Huntsville. The two patrols provided their own suppers of hamburgers, chips and drinks. The early winter camp out had little snow, but the air was crisp and clean. The South Fork River was slow and low, providing a beautiful backdrop for a great camp out. Scouts camped in tents, 2-3 boys for each tent. Temperatures dipped down to 20 degrees by morning. The troop provide breakfast of Freedom Toast, bacon and hot chocolate. Scouts had whipped cream topping for the hot chocolate. Various games were played a little adventure was had by the scouts. The sun finally hit the camp ground around 11:00 a.m., just in time to pack up and head home. Thanks to our new leadership, Eric Tuttle, YM 2nd Counselor and Assistant Scout Master, along with Rick Wright, our new Assistant Scout Master.
