Spring Camporee 3/6-7/2009

On Friday March 6, and Saturday March 7 we went on a camporee just outside of Casa Grande. The boys that went were Porter S., Porter D., Ian P, Brandon, Nicholas, Ben, Spencer, Tyler, and Caleb. The leaders that went were Brother Bradshaw, Brother Weed, Brother Austill, President Derrick, Brother Severtson. When we first got there we set up our tents and our flags. then we had spaghetti and meatballs with frechbread for dinner. Later we started planning our skit. Then we went to the opening camporee ceremony and watched a lot of different skits and performed ours. Then we came back to our campsite and had s'mores and went to bed.

The next day we woke up and cooked omelets with plastic bags. We had to put it in boiling water for a few minutes. Then we went and did all of the contests. There were many different ones first we went to there was different papers with different stories and we had to tell how to help out the person that gets hurt in the story. Another on we had to start a fire and boil water with only one match. On one we had to look at 100 different scouting items and remember as many as we could.

Later on that day after we did all of the contests we had to start taking down our tents. We did that and all had sandwiches for lunch and cleaned up everything then left. We had to leave early so we never got to learn our scores.
