This overnight went really good, considering we hadn’t used the troop equipment in about six months. Everything got set up without any problems and fairly fast too.

After everything was set up we got to do some scouting activities, we built flagpoles with lashings and staves, had a first aid obstacle course, a tracking adventure, and we built small fires trying to burn strings tied to pieces of rebar.

For dinner the leaders made a plethora of different foods for us to try. My personal favorite was the tacos in a bag, it was taco meat with salsa and cheese in a bag of Fritos.

On Sunday, the boys were in charge of making breakfast for their patrols, it went pretty well for the most part. After we tore everything down and packed up, we had a little church service and sang some songs. It was fun and overall a great overnight.
