Fall Camp-Out

Our pack organized it's own camp-out for this season.

Friday night campfire.


Saturday morning breakfast. I prefer helping out with breakfast. I like getting up before most of the other campers. I like the smell of breakfast cooking outdoors. I like being first for coffee. :D




Flag Raising:






The Tigers/Wolves/Webelos earned their badminton and volleyball beltloops while the Bears went fishing. They will trade places later in the afternoon.






The Webelos had to prepare a flag for retirement. It's very serious and the boys learn a lot about patriotism.


Then the dens had time to meet and work on special projects.
The Webelos worked on their Scientist badge.




The Bears made bird feeders.


The Wolves learned a bit about first-aid.



Then the pack came together and worked on the astronomy beltloop and listened to the park ranger.


The park ranger was kind enough to show us what he wore on his belt. As well as educate us about the area.


Then it was the Wolves/Tigers/Webelos' turn to go fishing.






He just can't help himself. Mud+Water+Jeremiah=Mess


Oh the best part of the night! The part of the whole event that's worth waiting for. Camfire!!! We had several skits and some songs. We retired a flag. We had a GREAT time!




The guys help the kids with cocoa and s'mores. It's a delicious job. Somebody has to do it.




After little to no sleep we all gather around what is left of the campfire for morning services.


So sad. The weekend is over. It's time to pack it all in, go home, and do laundry.
