Two and half hours later, 15 Scouts and their leaders arrived safely at Harrison Park. After unloading the -vehicles and bidding our drivers a safe return home, we set about. getting our campsite ready. Most important was. to assemble our snow lodge •which would be our sleeping quarters for two nights, 'erect the dining cover, tent for storage, get the fire going and. gather wood- and water. By' midnight' we were. ready to settle into our lodge. Saturday morning, we awoke to a gentle snow . and frosty tempera- tures. A warm breakfast was pre pared and then off. to the toboggan and ski trails for some fun until opening ceremonies. By noon we were back hauling more wood and supplies .: and ready for a' hardy • lunch. • The afternoon was. jam-packed with activities - a rescue mission, orienteering, obstacle course, fire lighting, knots, log sawing. and .a side trip to the area hospital (hope you're feeling .better Matthew). By night fall we were ready for a warm fire and supper. In the evening we rallied with the other 500 Scouts at a campfire 'full ,. with skits and songs. Having had a very full day, we retired rather early to our toasy • sleeping bags in the lodge. Sunday we awoke to milder tem-. peratures which provided additional 'challenges' in keeping our clothing and boots dry. After a 'pancake breakfast served by our hosts; we took off in search of adventure with our skiis and toboggans. Prior to lunch we also took in Scouts Own and Closing ceremonies before bidding farewell- to the American Scouts who had a long trip home ahead of them. ' . At noon we were busy taking - down our campsite, chowing down • our last outdoor meal of the week-. end and ready for our parents to pick us up and ger urs g ar home, very wet and reacor a hot bath 4 - It was a. terrific "experience amongst hundreds . of fellow Scouters from 'Ontario, Michigan • and Ohio. Now that: we have a better appreciation of what . is expected, we'll' be ready next year having sharpened our skills to bring . home some hardware to Lucknow.
