2025-04: Camp Sequoyah

Posted on

For our April Campout we headed to Camp Sequoyah in Alabama, a really cool camp that we’ve never been to before! Unbeknownst, there was a camporee going on so we ended up spending the day in fire building, water relays, canoe tug-o-wars, races, and more! It was so much fun, especially the kraken rescue. We ended the evening with skits and songs at their camporee camp fire and then headed off for some night repelling! Great way to spend a weekend!

2025-02: Bert Adams

Posted on

Over Valentine’s weekend we went to Bert Adams Camp. It was supposed to rain all day but it only rained at night. However the severe weather sirens at five in the morning gave us  the fright of our lives as well as a good example for why we need to know what to do and where to go during dangerous weather (we crammed 10 people in a single bathroom stall) . We did the fingerprinting merit badge and other advancements. This was a scout’s first time camping and we promise that this normally doesn’t happen.

2025-01: Day of Fire

Posted on

Last weekend we continued our tradition of going to day of fire every year, and had so many people sign up that we were split into three patrols rather than our usual one or two. On the first night, we set up our own personal campfire along with our tents. After struggling to get out of our warm sleeping bags and into the cold, we ate breakfast and headed off to one of the coves. We dragged sticks and logs to the fire for a few hours before heading back to camp for lunch. Some of us decided to stay back at camp and watch the fire while the others went to a different cove to continue helping out. When the day was over, we gathered around the campfire for dinner and dessert before going to bed.

2024-12: Escalade

Posted on
Last weekend, to close out 2024, we went to escalade with troop 22 G, and had a great time! We spent our time climbing and working on the climbing merit badge, and later into the night we played games. When we started with a smaller group, we played hide and seek. Eventually, everyone else joined in and we decided to play sardines. We slept throughout the gym, but most of us decided to sleep on the mats of the children’s play area. Before we had the chance to get much sleep, it was already time to leave in the morning.

2024-11: Starlight Campout

Posted on

This weekend, we went stargazing at camp woodruff! We learned about the solar system and constellations, and met most of the requirements for the astronomy merit badge. Thank you Daytona for camping with us this weekend and teaching us about space! Later, we joined WSC Staff in folding the tents from summer camp for storage. After that, we waited for it to get dark by singing camp songs, and when the sun set we went to look at constellations and planets.

This weekend, we visited camp westin for a skills campout. The older scouts helped teach the newer scouts requirements like first aid, flag folding, and fire safety. After lunch, we went for a swim in the nearby lake. We dried off and had dinner and some delicious cobbler before going to sleep. When we woke up, we packed our things and got ready to leave.

2024-08: Flint River

Posted on

This weekend, 15 of us went canoeing down the Flint River! The trip was nine miles and seven hours long, and our boats capsized so many times we lost count. Despite that, we made it to the end in one piece. When we got back, we had a delicious Mac and cheese dinner made by one of the scouts. By the end of the trip, we had fully earned our canoeing merit badges!
