Webelos Camping

Eli and I participated in the "Mountain Man" camping event sponsored by his pack this weekend. The event was designed to let the boys experience some fun old-style activities. They got to try their hand with a BB gun, with a bow and arrow, with knife and tomahawk throwing, splitting rails, driving nails and splitting logs for firewood. Eli had a blast. Here is a link to a set of photos of Eli at the event. The camp out was held at Rockmont Camp for boys. One of the dads is on the staff there; and one of the guitar players at church, Dan Davis, is also on the staff there. We spent a lot of time with Kevin Frederick and his son Sam; they were the only two Webelos on the outing. It was chilly last night, but nice and warm today for the activities. No wind; no snow; no hail; how delightful!
