The success of 'this particular. camp was apparent in the queries on the return journey, —Are we' going to go again next•year?" and ``When is -our next winter camp?" Inasmuch as no one complained about the cold this time. around, it would appear that the lessons were learned well on our initial outing of the winter. Our thanks to Scout: fathers, Ross Carter and Gary Freeman who provided the transportation, and enjoyed the weekend with -the Scouts. The troop- meeting of February 4 saw the in- troduction of a new game called "Douse -Me - Knot". This particular game should • help the boys learn their knots in short order sp that they can remain dry, (particularly the patrol leaders). Patrol leader Jeff Petit discovered the iwet consequences of not knowing his bowline. Reverend Oestre.tcher continu-ed the' religion and life program instruction. Troop badge designs were roughed•out,and the preliminary instructions on the Scout -Guide week ' posters were discussed. Rrian Phillips was awarded his achievenient badge for camping, bronze level, and Wesley Delve received his communicators badge to add to his collection of challenge badges.
