Troop 304 Attends Minuteman Council CampOree

The Minuteman Council CampOree is an opportunity to camp with other troops and test our scouting knowledge. Over 500 Boy Scouts camped through the weekend and we were visited by almost 1,000 Cub Scouts on the Saturday. The weather for this year's CampOree was fantastic and fun was had by all!

	The raising of the flag is the official start of the CampOree!
	The Scouts receive instructions from a State Trooper on the proper care of horses.
	At one of the stations, first aid knowledge was tested and refreshed.
	The Troop helped cut the wood for a pioneering project.
	And then we lashed the wood together. The completed project would be a bridge!
	As a final exercise, the Troop was taken out into the woods (blindfolded) and told to head for a specific location only using a map and the Sun. We arrive safely, but we did have to cross a little swamp...
