Troop 260 WEBELOS CAMP-OUT

A big thank you to Pat Jones and Troop 260 for inviting the Webelos to their camp-out last weekend.  We had a good turnout and the boys all had an excellent time.  The Scouts did a skit for the troop and the troop did several songs and skits for us.  The food was excellent and everyone enjoyed the hike on Sunday morning.  It was a beautiful weekend for Scout camping.  Thanks again to Troop 260 and we hope that we can do it again soon. Randy Marlette Cubmaster, Pack 262
