Chase and Matt had the opportunity to go to scout camp at the same place. Chase went to scout camp and Matt was on High Adventure at the same place. They went to Camp L and had a great time. Even though they didn't do the same thing, they were able to camp by each other and still see each other throughout the week. Matt even spent a day with Chase instead of going on the overnight wilderness survival night. Luckily Chase wasn't backpacking in because his pack was very heavy but he was able to fit everything he needed for the week. They left Monday morning at 4:45am and came home Saturday afternoon around 3:00. (That's a long week of camping!) Chase got along with everyone and strengthened some friendships. Matt was able to bond with his teachers. He was dreading the campout but came home with a new outlook on life and was very positive about the whole experience. We have a great group of young men and leaders!
This is just Chase's group. Chase is in the very back row second to the end on the right side. Chase worked really hard on merit badges and came away with 7!!! He's doing a great job of working on the merit badges to get closer to his eagle. One of the challenges Chase had to do was "Polar Bear Springs." You have to stay under this freezing cold waterfall for 10 seconds. Chase did it!
