Backpacking Crew and Hiking MB Outing

A perfect summer day and the wild woods of Bairds Creek awaited hikers from Troop 1468 on Sunday, August 18. Ten miles covered on winding and hilly trails, and a great trail lunch eaten. The menu included "Mud," "Rodman Dam Hydro Sludge," "Sunny Daze Rice," and some homemade, home-dehydrated spaghetti. The crew also discovered that they do not like Spam (sorry Mr. Bettis!)

Next stop...The Porcupine Mountains!

Sylvania 2013

The scouts and their parents had their yearly adventure to Sylvania in July.  There were a lot of fish caught, cooked and eaten.  The weather was cool and damp, but didn't dampen everyone's spirits.  A scout is prepared!!!!

The Canoe race to the finish line heading home - the Haas boys won the race.
