2011 SUMMER CAMP Re-Cap

By Scott Howell

What a Hot, Hot, Hot Summer Camp Boy Scout Troop 282 had!!!!!!!!!!!. But any day at scout camp is a better day than being in the City of heat. We took 49 scouts and 31 leaders to camp this summer. We had 4 boys and 2 adults on the permanent camp staff . We also had 2 adults on staff while we were at camp 6th Session. We had great leadership in the Scouts and Leaders for all 10 days. The troop earned 160 merit badges while at camp this summer. We had the following Scouts advance in rank:

Austin Ford-Tenderfoot -July 28
Joshua Joyce-Tenderfoot-July 29
Nicholas Arnold-Tenderfoot-July 29
Kyle Fisher -Star July 30

Ashton England – Star – July 30
Hunter Ginivan-Star July 31
Gabe Englehart-Star July 31

Matt Moorman – Completed the Mile Swim

We also had some of our leaders complete the following scout leader training:
Outdoor Training & Scoutmaster and Asst. Scoutmaster Specifics
Kevin Perrette
Matt Moorman
Derek Kraus
Tanner Tryon
Gus Hendren

Our scout troop painted the cabin that the Recording Medicine Man stays in as our camp service project. The troop would like to thank everyone who took part in this great service project.

We had many scouts elevated in the Great Tribe of Mic-O-Say a Honor Campers program. These elevations should not be taken lightly as they are only done for those who have gone the extra mile in scouting, community, school, church and home.

The Troop would also like to thank John Verman for his leadership at summer camp and through out the 2010-2011 scouting year.

Well with that said its time to start thinking about Summer Camp 2012. The 1st payment date has already come and gone. So scouts start bring your weekly payment to scout meeting along with your payment book.
