Court of Honor

This is the Court of Honor right after summer camp, so there were tons of merit badges to present tonight.

Calvin earned his Mammal Study, Archery, Environmentalist (earned at a merit badge college), Emergency Preparedness, and Rifle Shooting. Whew. That's a lot. He has one more requirement to meet for Reptile Study.

They also presented the boys who went to camp with special achievement awards.

Calvin earned Bieber Award (I'll let him tell that story).

Joshua earned "Smile King" for being so smiley and good-natured even when the temperature was above 100deg and humidity was around 90%.

Joshua was also presented his Scout Rank tonight.

Camp Campbell

Calvin's first ever camping trip as a Boy Scout.
He worked all day on his Fishing Merit Badge.



He's completed many of the requirements. He still needs to catch 2 fish, identify 3, and clean/cook a fish he caught.

Cause the fish just won't bitin' that day.



...He'll get it done.



Leon chaperoned the event, and Lamont came out and spent the day with him on Saturday. Lucky kid had both his dads on this trip!



The Warrior Patrol worked on their Cooking Merit Badge together.





The boys are getting ready to make what's called a hobo. Basically you take your meat (chicken, beef, pork, whatever), veggies, and spices and wrap them up in aluminum foil. Then you cook them in your fire for about 45 minutes.

These are actually very very tasty.



Mr. Shaun and Mr. Keith.







These boys have a great time. They bond over these type of trips becoming very close friends.
