Scouts had a great time at Camp Rainey Mountain summer camp. A few scouts enjoyed the cooking MB class, except when the counselors ate all of the food. Our first year scouts were all together at fire safety, which was a little on the boring side, until they started brainstorming all the things that could catch on fire at different holidays...sounds like some families will have an exciting holidays.
In January, a few brave members went on a wild cave tour at Tumbling Rock Caverns in Alabama. With our excellent guide, David Lawrence, we spent about 8 hours exploring the cave, and probably only covered about a third of it. We are planning to go back later this year to explore more.
Troop 435 had a great time at Camp Rainey Mountain the past two years. Staff is great! So much so, the scouts voted to go back in 2019 and a couple are applying to be on staff.
