Camp Comer


Our Troop went to Camp Comer in Mentone, AL from June 29- July 5. We had a great time in Campsite One - Beaver.

We worked on merit badges did some service projects and participated in the campfire with a skit on Thursday night.

One of our members participated in an Indian dance. He made his costume himself.

We had three visitors join our troop for the week from other troops.

Each new Scout earned at least 5 merit badges. Some of the badges earned were Archery, Riflery, Citizenship in the Nation, Environmental Science, First Aid, and Cinematography.
Our older scouts earned other badges.

We won the Honor Troop award. We also won the Best Dressed Award. The best dressed award goes to the troop who wears their uniforms to the best degree. This award is offered to only one troop and it is handmade.
