Summer Trip 2011 Day 6

Scoutmaster — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 01:06:00 +0000

We were wet. Then we dried out now we’re wet again. The rain stopped just in time for the Cherokee play to start.

I got a few comments about the boys not smiling. Smiling is only permitted every three hours on even numbered days.

Actually, they are just listening or studying intently.

Sam B.’s malaria is getting better since we began seeing the Cherokee medicine man here in NC.

We lost Mr. Brad. Well, some say it was intentional, but I’m not sure. We last saw him tied to a tree north of out camp.

These pictures are of us at Mingus Mill, the Indian village, and the play.

Summer Trip Day 4-Tater’s Crawdad

Tater cooked him until he was red and dead, then ate every bite!

Now everyone is looking for them.

Summer Trip 2011 Day 4

Scoutmaster — Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:26:13 +0000

Well here we are on day four. We survived the night at Rabun Beach even though we have no cell phone service. The campsite is beautiful, and the swimming area is just as nice as it was three years ago.

We found most of Jason’s fingers. The guy in the trailer next to our tent site sewed them back on and says two or three might be ok. He’s not a doctor but he did charge as much a one would have charged.

The police came and got Mr. DeMildt. Something about holding up a feed store.

Here are some pictures of us at Foxfire this morning.

Summer Trip 2011 Day 2

Scoutmaster — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:39:00 +0000

Today we spent the day at Robins Air Force Base. Every one of the boys seemed to be very happy to be here. Eating mess food has certainly changed over the years.

We had some very interesting tours, and every boy now has the aviation merit badge.

Matthew got a blister and broke his glasses. Nathaniel lost his stuff. Poppy got lost with half of the troop in the woods. I have chiggers. Dakota lost most of his hair.

More tomorrow if we survive the night.

Fishing Tournament at Deleon Springs

Scoutmaster — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 10:29:31 +0000

On October 3rd, 2009, several of the Troop and Pack members attended the cane pole fishing tournament hosted by Deleon Springs State Park..

CJ Long, Japheth Eckhardt, and Josh Osterhout are each intent on catching the biggest fish of the day.

Josh Osterhout was the second-place winner for the longest fish caught, but was in first place until the very last moments of the contest. For several boys, this torunament will be remembered as the place and time where their first fish was caught!
