  The week of June 19 our troop went to Summer Camp at Camp Friedlander! Everybody had fun working on rank advancement and earning Merit Badges! Loads of scouts showed up to earn Merit Badges and have tons of fun.   We arrived midday June 19th to a huge summer camp with campsites all over. From where we arrived, we walked all across camp to arrive at our campsite. After dinner on the first day, we all came right back to our campsite to prepare our cots for our bed or set up hammocks. Then, we went to the opening campfire, which was an absolute blast with all the skits performed. Some people put their hammocks stacked together to make a hammock stack of six hammocks.  Some called the stack Hammock City.   When we all woke up on Monday, we got ready to go to breakfast and start our Merit Badges. Some scouts’ classes were all the way across camp and gave them tons of exercise every day. After all the classes the scouts would return to camp and then eat dinner. Dinne...

  This past weekend we had the tobogganing campout to Pokagon State Park in Northern Indiana.   Seven Scouts and 3 adults showed up.   We had a super fun time going tobogganing, but not so much carrying the toboggans back up.   But it was still fun!     Since the river by our campsite was frozen, we went on it.  We were probably on the ice for 2 to 3 hours playing and breaking tons of ice.  It was not too cold, but it was cold enough for eggs to freeze on the stove.  Some of us got a little wet on the ice, but we were prepared and able to fix that. We slept on semi comfortable beds, with some snoring and other strange noises coming from unidentified Scouts.  We played a good game of ghost in the graveyard and lost a couple of things.  We had a little trouble getting the trailer out of its spot, but it only took an hour of waiting to finally go and it was a good learning experience.  Overall, we had tons of fun with a tiny...

Historian Aaron G. - Hiking Campout 2022

By -
 In March we had our backpacking campout! We had tons of fun hiking and working on rank advancements. Tons of people showed up. We got there late on Friday.  Most of us slept in the cabin, but there were some brave ones who fought the cold. We woke up early the next morning and everybody but the new scouts got ready to hike 10 miles. While the new scouts worked on rank advancement everybody else started their long hike, some getting cold, some getting tired. But we pushed through, climbed up huge hills, and hiked through cool rock formations. We finished our hike late afternoon and set up our tents. We then got a big fire going but put it out later to get ice cream. We all went to Young’s Jersey Dairy to have some ice cream and chill out. We arrived back and went to bed. We woke up on Sunday, packed up, and ended an amazing campout. Some are learning that they need to hike more, some getting new ranks. It was a great campout and we can't wait for the next!
