Hello again. This is our weekly update for Young Mens camp!
We have just over 2 weeks to go, so a few reminders.
Please have 5 favorite scriptures for the camp. We will all share one of these a day during camp.
Please look at the packing lists on the tab above. One of the big things on there is closed toed shoes. At the park we will be running around on the edges and there are a lot of weeds and such. Flip Flops are not great for this, I have seen it before.
Another part of that list is dishes. It doesn’t need to be a mess kit or anything, but a plastic plate and silverware that can be washed. I will have wash water and we will do our best to be good stewards of the environment by not creating a bunch of garbage. We will practice Leave No Trace. I will not have paper plates or plastic cups available. Bring a cup or a water bottle. I will have water to refill them with.
I still need the permission slips to be turned into either myself or Jackson by Wednesday the 19th.
I have the following boys attending:
Taylor- Wednesday and Thursday
Max- all days
Gabriel- all days
Tristan- all days
Wyatt- all days
Anthony- all days
Jakob- Friday and Saturday
Marcus- Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
If there is a change please let me know.
And finally, the boys will be cooking their own meal on Thursday. I like to have this as an actual cooking session. Yes I will help them. My old Scout requirements were anything that is not: heat and eat, out of a can, hot dogs, mac and cheese, or any other add water and stir. There is a place for all of those, but I would like the boys to learn a bit more of a skill. Please be thinking of what they can make, and please send any questions my way.
Along with this, we will be deciding on what to eat for the overnight camp and making a plan. Have them think of something they would like for the campout. Otherwise, I am making stew and biscuits.
That is about all for today, there will be more to come next week. Please feel free to ask me any questions.
