Boy Scout Camporee

Dorito didn't hang out long with his patrol today as he was busy helping with the Regional Camporee. Our theme was "Wild, Wild West" and included pioneering skills, whittling, furs, footprints, and Pony Express re-enactors. I helped by bringing a table of artifacts from 1860s for Show-and-Tell. There was also a Pioneer Trivia Contest at my table, where the top five winners were awarded Buffalo Beef Jerky. It included a campfire popcorn popper, brick of tea, quilts, and a jar full of antique buttons. This evening will include a Mic-o-Say dance which qualifies "Northern Spirit" to earn his blue coup. Only he and Alexander have ever earned the blue coup in their first year as a Brave! Good job.
