The trip to Landahl was fun and exciting. I think the funnest part was the monkey bridge. This time it was longer and more fun with all the other kids from the other troop. Also, it was kind of cold but at least it did not pour down rain.

I didn’t go on the hill, but I heard it was fun with all the steep slopes! I also heard that the first years had ton of fun. I had fun when we did the skits around the camp fire. I would like to do the skits at every over night!

It was fun trying to build the fire because we got to throw logs on it and watch them slowly burn. The activities were fun. I enjoyed the hand saw and the tripod. The tripod was fun to learn and now I know how to do it. I liked the food, it tasted good. Finding the supplies and setting things up was easy but some things were a little hard to find.

I like the overnights and the trip to Landahl was a great one!

South side Parker

Once again Santa-Cali-Gon has come and gone. And as usual we parked cars. On Friday it rained and rained, resulting in the Chamber of Commerce closing the festival at 5:30 on Friday. Then Saturday came with more rain, but not as hard as the day before. On the south side we still could not park cars in the grass even though there was a break in the weather.

But this did not stop Mr. Gentry or myself from parking a stretch limousine. You heard right. We parked a stretch limousine this year. As I was walking back from the executive bathroom, I saw a stretch limousine coming down the street. I hollered across the street "Mr. Gentry, how about the limo?" So Mr. Gentry went running up to the limo to let them know that we have room if you want to park. And once again we parked it.

Our motto is "We have room, We can park you". So that everybody knows we are still trying to park a semi truck and trailer. We tried to talk some into parking, but no luck. This is our goal for next year. So I would like everybody to mark down on your calendars next year the dates of August 30, 31, September 1, 2 so that you can help park cars at Santa-Cali-Gon Days. With everyones help we may reach our goal of parking a tractor trailer.
