The Klondike Derby was not like most of the others in the past usually it rained or it was really muddy but not this time. This year’s Klondike Derby was super snowy so it was the perfect time for a snowball fight. My favorite activity there was the obstacle course because we had a really good time doing it. We did have some little snowball fights but it was no where like the biggest and last snowball fight with about 50 troops!

The older boys got third place out of all of those scout patrols in the challenge division! Isn’t that pretty good for 50 troops? No one else got an award though. My patrol did get third out of the 5 patrols and it is no surprise that the older boys patrol got first in our troop. But I did have a lot of fun at the Klondike Derby because all of the snowball fights brightened my mood.
