The fire building and cooking station was a big hit.
The Scouts had to choose a couple of food items they had in their backpacks
and the counselor gave them a secret item to add to whatever they brought.
The boys had a bratwurst and apples. The secret ingredient was Sour Patch
Kids. They had to cook these items together and each boys and the counselor
had to try it. They all said it wasn’t too bad. Pictured are Carson Schmidt,
Anthony Karel, Blaze Berdoy, Kevin Tillinghast, Hunter Chaffee and Tate
Berdoy. See story above left. Photo by Shari Chaffee.
