 Camp Whip Poor Will Service Project Last Saturday on November 6, some of the boys and girls in our Troop participated in the Camp Whip Poor Will service project. A total of 5 scouts went and a couple of adults. Our Troop has been helping Camp Whip Poor Will for the past 10 years, and they thank you very much. It was a good day of taking down tents and eating pizza.  Everybody enjoyed it and we all got a good amount of service hours in. They got to walk across a wobbly rope bridge and saw tons of bats under the tent flies. We helped take down 4 campsites. It was hard work but we got the job done. It was a good day at Camp Whip Poor Will, and we can't wait to help them again.  Aaron G. (Troop 281 Historian)
