We did a good job of making lemon aide Saturday morning, didn't we!?!
11 scouts came to the Bailey Cove library to continue work on the Wilderness Survival merit badge. This Tuesday night you will have more training at our weekly meeting before the Camporee. At the camporee you will have an opportunity to apply what you have learned in fire building, water purification and shelter building.
Bring your completed personal survival kit to scouts this Tuesday night and show it to me. Make sure you know how each item in it could be useful.
Be prepared!
