Friday's Jamboree Update

This morning started with a 5K run. We got up @ about 5:30 and most of the troop ran the Southern Region 5K with the others cheering us on. Then we had a light breakfast of cereal, muffins, yogurt & apples.

The Scouts then scattered to the four winds. I've heard about Buckskin Games, a confidence course, merit badge midway, bikeathon, aquatics and the ever popular patch trading.

Lunch was a grilled chicken sandwich and dinner was burgers and potato salad.

We are getting ready for a crowded Saturday and we are looking forward to the Arena Show tomorrow.

Thursday's Jamboree Update

For a day that had nothing scheduled, the Scouts certainly were busy. Some guys went to the Buckskins Games, while others worked on Pathfinding. We had a couple of storm roll through, but they didn't last very long and everyone made out pretty well. Between the storms, 8 Scouts were able to earn their CPR cards.

For breakfast on Thursday, the Scouts made pancakes, eggs, & sausage. For dinner, the guys made a nice combination of mac & cheese, and Spam creation. For lunch, we had ham & cheese sandwiches.

Everyone is getting hydrated for the 5K run/walk in the morning. All of this walking this week has definitely prepared them for the 5K.
