What a great overnight the scout troop had this weekend at Rotary Camp. We started out overnight by doing a service project for the camp. We picked up limbs, littles limbs and trash to allow the grounds to be mowed. We also placed mulch around some small trees. The service project was great as the scouts all worked together and listened to the Sr. Patrol Leaders.

We then got our personnel gear off our Troop Bus and moved it to the cabin we were assigned. We ate lunch and then we got to go fishing. The fishing was fun even if we didn’t catch any fish.

Now it was time to play Gaga Ball which is a favorite game of all the scouts. We played for a few hours. Then it was time for supper. Supper was great as we had caesar salad, spaghetti with meat sauce, meatballs and to top it off we had garlic bread.

Then it was back to the Gaga Pit where we played till it was dark. Then our scoutmaster had a meeting around a fire that had been built by the leaders where we sang songs and just relaxed. The funny part was there was no campfire planned for this over night but we ended up having a campfire. It was great. We had a troop cracker barrel. Where we had cobbler, apple, cherry and black forest. The cobblers were great. Then it was time for bed.

When we got up on Sunday morning we prepared our personnel gear to move it to the Troop bus. Then it was time for breakfast where we had french toast(made with Texas Toast) , syrup and bacon. It was great. Then it was back to the Gaga Pit till it was time for church. At church we had an opening prayer, a song, a sermon, a responsive reading, a song and a closing prayer. I really like our troop church services. Then it was time to move our gear to the Troop Bus. A little more gaga ball and one last sweep of the camp to pick up trash and it was time to get on the Troop Bus to head back to the church for our parents to pick us up.

I can not wait till next month’s overnight.
