Troop 4 Purdys Batmen Rock 2013 Spring Camporee

Our Troop's first Camporee was a great success. The Batmen Patrol with 4 newly crossed over Scouts managed an Award of Merit and Honor (the highest level award) at the 2013 Muscoot Spring Camporee. The Patrol finished in the top 4 patrols out of 16 participants which is fantastic for our first Camporee as a unit. The Batmen even managed the only perfect score at the How High/How Far station thanks to Mr. Jeffery's education on how to estimate distances at our last Troop meeting.

Points were accumulated for accomplishing certain classic scout skills at 12 stations and for teamwork in addition to a campsite inspection and participation in afternoon and evening activities as a unit. The Patrol skit "Warm Worms" was best in show in my opinion and I am sure will be used again by other Troops in attendance.

More photos coming soon.

All, please remember to clean all Patrol equipment you ended up taking home and brining to tomorrow's meeting.

As a reminder tomorrows meeting will take place at the Middle/High School track. Please bring a backpack packed with what you would bring on a weekend campout.
