The camporee pictures are floating around in cyberspace. If I can find them I will insert them into this post at a later date. As a matter of fact everything regarding this event is lost in cyberspace and/or the recesses of my mind which pretty much guarantees they’re gone forever.
Some things I do remember, though, and tops among these is the fact that it was blistering hot. As a matter of fact it was as hot as this fellow’s home-
. I mean we were burning up.
The Camporee was well organized. All the events ran smoothly.
Troop 8 won several awards, the most significant being the prestigious Spirit Award which we won because Troop 8 Scouts displayed the most enthusiasm and overall high spirits.
The other Scoutmasters were most impressed with our scouts generosity and willingness to help competing troops in the competitions
But that’s always the case.
