The Great Rivers Council hosted a Camporee this weekend. Boy Scouts from all over our area joined together to camp and compete using old fashioned games, like the bolt toss and two scouts sawing a log with a huge, two-man saw! Our troop was one of more than a dozen that camped this weekend.
The highlight of our weekend was our Troop's cooking contest. For the last few years, one patrol has won. This year they didn't. My patrol didn't either, but we came in second place - not bad for the new kids!
The weekend was great, and I hope we have more camporees with a lot of other troops joining ours since it was a lot of fun to meet other scouts from across mid-Missouri.
