Another Summer Camp has come and
gone, hope you didn't blink. We had 18 boys from Troop
75 attend the 5th week of Summer Camp at Pupukea this year.
There were close to 300 boys at camp this past week,
including Troops from Maui, Big Island, California, and
Texas. Camp was so large that each meal service was split
into two time slots. We lucked out and got the second time
slot. Which meant we got to walk up for meal assembly, walk
back to our campsite, and then walk back up at our appointed
mealtime. Personally, I logged an average of 8 miles of
walking each day at camp.
Oh and did I mention that the boys
were smiling and laughing from the first rooster crow until
the last raindrop fell each night. I hope that meant they
had fun! I would like to thank each Scout who attended
Summer Camp this year, it was truly a memorial
event.
I would also
like to thank each parent for allowing your son to attend
this camp, for bringing all kinds of goodies from ice to
donuts to pizza, and for picking up your son after all his
classes were done. A BIG mahalos to Kevin for towing the
trailer to and from camp, to Steven for spending the wettest
part of the week with us at camp, and to Al, Paul, and
Damien for coming out during the week and participating in
the Scoutmaster Belly-Flop contest at the pool. A SUPER BIG
mahalos to Jason for not only staying the entire week and
cooking an awesome Troop 75 I Want Some More Cobbler, but
also teaching 2 Cooking Merit Badge Classes at camp this
week.
Once again the
boys worked hard at camp when they were not in class and
have earned their Honor Troop award.
And last, but not least, please
congratulate Kamren the next time you see him for completing
the BSA Mile Swim.
Mahalo,
Jeff
