Summer Court of Honor
The fourth step in scouting’s rank advancement is The scout is recognized. Our summer Court of Honor was time to celebrate rank advancement, the presentation of merit badges, and an Oh beautiful Scoutmaster Minute. We shared food and friendship with our family and friends.
William’s Eagle Project
Sixteen acoustical soundboards were refabricated and installed in Peninsula Catholic’s Gym. There was a total of 124 service hours completed on this project. The object of the project was to reduce echoing in the gym. The soundboards have had a huge effect in the gym and the school really appreciates the troop and what we did for them. The troop participation played a major factor and the hard work of the boys helped this project run smoothly. (-William)
Here are some photos!
Beach Camping
We were expecting to “surf”, but not in our campsite. Either way, we still had lots of fun!
Summer Camp
Already looking forward to Summer Camp 2019!
Shelter in a Stable
There was unstable weather, so we camped in a stable. When the weather cleared out, our SPL and ASPL lead us on a hike. The road to Old Rag was flooded so we hiked the horse trails. Try this calculation: 2,000 steps equals 1 mile. How many miles did we hike, if we took approximately 22,000 steps?
The SPL and ASPL, used the EDGE method to teach scouting skills including Firem’n Chip and Toten Chip.
A BIG thank you to William, our AWESOME SPL, for your patient leadership while everyone took a turn at cooking for rank advancement.
