Resident Camp 2014

Last week Cap and I went to "Resident Camp" at Camp George Thomas.  It is a multi day camp designed for Cub Scouts.  The weather was great, even though a strong rain storm came through around 2:30 AM the first night we were there.  For June it was mild, and we did not feel like we were melting the entire time.  Cap got to shoot a bow and arrow for the first time, and we took an after dark hike to the "Old Flag Pole" so we could watch the fire flies in the field below.  We camped at, what one of the program directors said was, "the prettiest campground in camp."  This also made it the farthest from everything, seems that beauty hides itself on the outskirts of camp.  The kids did a skit, learned about trees, animals, how to rescue people from the pool, and how to cook s'mores in tin foil on the coals of a fire.  Here are some pictures...
