Survivor Challenge and Court of Honor

On August 8th, Troop 282 attended the survivor challenge family picnic. The challenges tested your skill, teamwork, and spirit. Not only were they challenging but they were enjoyable. For the challenges, the scouts were split up into two tribes, The Shirts (Team Blue) and The Green Goblins (Team Green). The team leaders of both groups had to make sure everyone got to participate and work together. On The Green Goblin’s last challenge they found the necklace of immunity which could change a poor score on a challenge into a perfect score. The Green Goblins ended up winning 67-80.
After the Scouts finished their survivor adventure they got to see their parents who showed up to eat the wonderful food that was provided by Sherie Hendren. After the meal, the leadership of the troop led us in The Pledge of Allegiance, Scout Oath, and Scout Law so we could begin our program. Mr. Dudley and Mr. Norton had the scouts lineup in alphabetical order to receive rewards. However, once we finished bickering on who went first in line Mr. Dudley played a trick on us. He started calling people up from the end of the line and worked his way to the front. After we got through that mayhem there were a few more awards to be handed out until our picnic came to an end. Overall it was a great day and we all had lots of fun.
