From the Scoutmaster's perspective

Wild World of Webelos

Where do I start? -WOW-what a super performance from the Troop! We started on the Sunday before by just a few of us meeting at Wygant to mow and plan out where everything would be located. Thanks to those who were able to come and mow.

Thursday, a few more of us met at the Church, loaded the trailer and went to Wygant to set up camp. Friday evening, every­one showed up pretty much on time and went right to work. The Scouts did a good job of directing traffic and helping the Webelos carry their gear to the campsites and setting up their camp.

Our campfire Friday night was fantastic. The OA team did a nice job. The fire worked this time, and even though the Luff family was involved, we did not end up with a tornado! (if you don't know, there are stories there). The adults who prepared and served the cobblers did a great job.

Saturday morning started off good with the breakfast crew arriving early. Thanks to Peggy and David for pre-cooking some of the breakfast ingredients to speed things up. The "biscuit crew" did a great job. We did not have any spare Dutch oven capacity to cook them at the camp. When it was  time to get up, the scouts did a great job of getting up and around.

The classes went great!  I had several positive comments on the teaching crews.  The logistics crews also did a good job of staying busy making sure the water jugs were full, helping with games, breaking down camp and loading the trailer.

Thanks to everyone for their hard work!
