Meeting Activities
Scouts unloaded the trailer and talked about how much fun they had at Mackinac and Summer Camp! They worked on advancements and got their books signed off for camping nights, service hours, and other accomplishments (always bring your Scout book to meetings!). Cleaned tents were turned in. If you still have a tent or other Troop equipment to return, please bring it to next week’s meeting. We have a few lost and found items. If you are missing something, please check next week. Attached is a picture of an award they got at Rotary.
Mackinac was great! We got lots of compliments and improved our scores over last year. One Scout who had gone with us and then with another troop said ours was the most fun! Great job!
Summer camp at Rotary was awesome! There were nice showers, wonderful staff, the best camp food Mr. Bacon has had, and ~95 merit badges completed!
