Enchanted Rock Campout

Tim and Mason went camping at Enchanted Rock with the Scouts this weekend. They had a great time despite the first night being 32 degress and the second night being 28 degrees. Burr!!
As Tim went to Mason's site to get some pictures, Mason was walking away from cleaning and Tim heard him say, "Well, they are almost clean." I guess that is good enough?
This campout featured a Padded Weapon Battle. Using the "safety guidelines", the kids made their own weapons for the battle.
Here is Chad with his weapon.
Wow - Mason is so strong!!

The Senior Patrol Leader and his assistants all left for part of the time to go backpacking and sleep in a different part of the camp. Mason was chosen to be the Acting SPL while they were gone. The goal is for this to be boy-led troop, so this was an honor for Mason to be chosen.

Tim will be remembered this campout for setting off his car alarm at 5:28 on Sunday morning!!

When did Mason grow up? He looks like a teenager- that's right- he will be in a few days! I'm proud of you Mason!
