Troop and Pack 804 held their annual Family Camp Out during the weekend of Feburary 6-8, 2009. The Itinerary for the event was posted earlier and can be found here .

The activities began on Friday night with a presentation of the movie “Follow Me, Boys!” which had not been seen by many of the cubs, scouts, and family members. This rather pleasent movie was really enjoyed by all in attendance. After the movie we just couldn’t help but have a campfire.
The educational topics covered on Saturday included: flag etiquette with John Osterhout; Leave No Trace with John Osterhout, CJ Long, Daniel Peatt, and Kaj Eckhardt; stretcher races and wheelbarrow races; lashings with CJ Long; skateboarding and safety with Daniel Peatt; a treasure Hunt (taking bearings and pacing distances) with Kaj Eckhardt; and a nature hike.
Saturday evening there was an official campfire complete with skits and jokes. Sunday was Scout Sunday at the Glenwood Presbyterian Church, and scouts and their families presented the colors and enjoyed a message from Pastor John Pope about an Eagle Scout who became a Naval Commander.
