January 28-29 MK Brown
Great Camp! We tried something new due to the fire ban and most of the Troop hiked 6.5 miles from the Old Mobeetie Jail across several ranches to Camp MK Brown. We had Pack 80 Webelos hike a shorter 3 mile route and meet us there. Patrol cooking went great. Temperature got down to 25 degrees on Saturday night and then a balmy 67 on Sunday for shooting rifles. Mr. Sahli delivered a great sermon on Sunday morning. A few scouts learned about electric fences and we had a few faceplants during the hike but all in all this was a fantastic camp.

Comments:
Great campout! Some of the boys struggled with the hike, but all had fun hiking in with NO permanent injuries. Walters, Amason, Laughlin, and Payne either fell or know what an electric fence is. The Webelos all did a wonderful job, and kept their eyes out for “Sand Snakes”. We had a full weekend of shooting at the 22 range. Thanks to the Council for furnishing the ammunition. Thanks Bob Altman! We even got to see an actual Indian burial ground on the hike.
