Family Camp Review: - Some people were unable to hear the bugle in the morning. - Scouts and adults like the food. - Jirah thinks the preparation could have been a little better but over all it was run pretty well, also he thought the demonstrations went well. - Three people in the Viper patrol didn’t show up to Family camp, either on time or at all, and the "Camp site" was not set up with all the equipment that was supposed to be brought, Mr. Kelly comments that if there is a plan, there should not be people who just don’t show up if the committed to bring materials needed to complete a project. - There was a troop mobilization on the camp out where Mr. Kelly went out and was "lost" and the scouts were divided up into search parties, and they were to report back to a central place, there were some communication problems, but over all this project was run pretty well. Also the scouts need to take this more serious, even though it is not real, it could be, and it needs to not be joke. Camporee: - Mr. Kelly will decide the patrols after he knows everyone who is going. - One change from last year at this camp is the size of the troop wont, benefit you in terms of how many points you can get. - Stags will help with scouts history April Campout: (Backpacking campout) - It will be a Dinosaur Park, April 28-30 - If you are backpacking on the 29 you will be spending the night somewhere else with nothing be what you bring, and it will be about 2.5 mile hike.
