Off to Camp They Go!

The bus arrived this morning, and everyone was ready to board except Mrs. Shields. She will be joining the troop later tomorrow after work commitments are met. If anyone needs to send any forgotten items down to camp, drop them by the Shields' house before noon on Monday.

As this is written, it's 3:30 p.m. on Sunday. We haven't heard yet from camp, but assume that they have arrived. Camp check-ins are usually hectic and include not just unloading and campsite setup, but reviews with the health staff, tours of camp, official troop pictures, and lots and lots of instructions. This is week #6 of camp at Henson, and a record-breaking number of scouts are in camp this week. Undoubtedly, check-in is moving a little slower than usual.
