Maxwell got home from Falling Creek on a Friday and packed back up to leave for Boy Scout camp on Sunday morning! He had a good partner though…
Yep, Robert went to Boy Scout camp for the whole week too! He’s a good dad.
Some pics of the accommodations…
From the stories I heard, it sounds like it was a great week – nothing luxurious about it and the bathroom was…lacking – but a great week nonetheless! Maxwell earned 7 merit badges – Shotgun Shooting, Environmental Science, Emergency Preparedness, Search & Rescue, Reptile & Amphibian Study (still to be fully completed!), Animal Science (oh, the stories from this one!), and Wilderness Survival. A very full and productive week! Robert completed the adult IOLS training (Introduction to Outdoor Leadership Skills).
Sounded like everyone had fun shooting shotguns!
Animal science! I think Maxwell learned how about shearing a sheep…and about castrating a “kife”! Also, “sheep are shtupid”!
For Wilderness Survival, Maxwell slept out in the woods with nothing but what was in his hands. Better him than me!
Maxwell cooked jambalaya for the troop one night! Go chef Maxwell!
I’m so proud of all these scouts, especially Maxwell!
We are all very glad to have our Scout and our trained Scout leader home now.
They’re both the best, Scout’s honor!
What troopers they both are! Great going guys!
What an adventure! Robert is such a good sport and a great father!
This was great experience for Maxwell to learn safety and survival. For a new Jr. High student, this will help him adapt.
Good job, Robert and Maxwell!
I love plumbing!
