There were 55 people on the camp staff. There are 12 units encamped this week. There are about 250 boys and leaders this week. Troop 50 had the smallest unit (7 boys plus 2 adults).
The camp site was inspected daily. Troop 50 earned perfect scores on days 2 and 3, and missed perfection on Day 1 by a single point, because of a single piece of litter in the fire pit.
When motivated beginning at 1015PM, seven boys can turn milk, cream, sugar and ice into ice cream in 27 minutes.
Sunday, MO and TU were really hot. Rain came TU afternoon and merely increased the humidity. It was cooler WE, though, and cloudy in the morning.
Classes are going well; food is good; lake water is warm; everyone is sleeping about as much as one would expect and showering a whole lot less than one would hope.
Thanks to all the parents who helped load-in on Sunday and to the dads, brothers and other assorted family members providing 2-deep leadership for the boys while at camp. The boys eat breakfast on SA morning and immediately de-camp.
Grimes really is closer than our own Council camp in Canton!
The adult leadership on-site will consult and confer and announce camp superlatives later this summer.
If you have pictures you'd like to add, email them! We'll keep posting all summer!
