Into the Swing of Things

What a great camping trip! (It's taken me a whole week just to recover.) What was your favorite part? I liked the fact that the boys had plenty of time to be silly, and still managed to accomplish a few things. You may not have known it, but we earned a few electives - being in a skit and camping skills - a couple of achievement parts at the flag ceremony, and belt loops for Archery and BB Gun shooting. Enormous thanks go to Rebecca Woody for running a comfortable camp, and to everybody who pitched in to help. If you have any pictures you want to share, I'm sure I can figure out a way to post them here.

We've also got a lot of great stuff coming up too. Of course, Monday night is the Pack meeting and Raingutter Regatta. Bring your best boat and your best wind! And Saturday, Nov. 1 is the trip to the Kangaroo Conservation Center. You will have already signed up if you're going.

Our next Den meeting is Nov. 2 at the Eustons. There's a map to our house in the lefthand column. We're building Bluebird houses. I would appreciate it if parents can plan to stay for the whole meetings to work with their son on this project. Also, if you have a hammer, please bring it. Feel free to wear your new "Class B" uniform, which is Scouting talk for the Pack T-shirt we handed out last weekend. (I have Rael's.) Cole Reynolds is responsible for snack, and one of the Euston boys will lead the flag ceremony.
