Camp Reeves

We had a full day of climbing at Camp Reeves, on April 18 - 20, 2008. The climbing tower was actually the one at Camp Durant. We had a morning climbing session, ate lunch in the parking lot and went back for more in the afternoon. We also had several challengers for the record fast climb up the wall, but each fell a little short.
As is quickly becoming a tradition, we were able to get in quite a bit of football once we got back to Reeves.

Camp Campbell

Even though the scoreboard shows rain for this trip, it was not a total washout. We used our trip to Camp Campbell, on March 14 - 16, 2008 to get in a short hike. There was also plenty of time to play some football.

Harris Lake


We used our trip to Harris Lake, on February 15 - 17, 2008 to practice some wilderness survival skills that we have been discussing during the last few troop meetings. Everyone, either individually or as a group, built and slept in their own shelter. The shelters were each unique in their own way but it is probably a good thing that it didn't rain.
We also performed a service project, picking up trash along the lake shore and even had some time left to play frisbee golf.

Eno River State Park


We enjoyed our trip to the Eno River State Park, on January 12 - 13, 2008. Our depature time was early on Saturday, since the gates closed so early on Friday night. We were still able to get in some work on rank advancement, pioneering, and took a hike. Although not officially a 'backpacking trip', each scout was responsible for his own food.
