Arriving at camp at 2.30, the boys went ahead and put up tents and built fireplaces. After - supper campfire was laid out and wood was gathered for it. After campfire was made we all went for a swim in the river. Although a few boys had bloodsuckers on them they all enjoyed their swim. At 9 o'clock campfire was lit and we sat around it singing songs, playing skits, and planned for our daily activities. Lights were out at 10.30. The following day was a bright sunny one, but when I awakened there was a startling noise outside my tent. Opening the flaps I found a herd of steers so close that I could have touched them with my hands. The boys were awakened and after breakfast they were giv- en time to make gadgets., At 9.30 inspection was held. This being Sunday we held a Scouts Own Service. Free time was then given until dinner time. After dinner the boys had free time to build, and to get settled in camp. At 3.30 the boys went for a swim. After supper they cleaned the grounds and the tents and washed up. At 9 o'clock we were invited over to the Cub camp to campfire which we all enjoyed very much. After campfire we were all treated to hot chocolate. The days after were followed in the same pattern along with a few hikes. Every day three boys were picked to go to the store in Hol- mesville which is a three mile hike. On Wednesday of that week the troop went for a ten mile hike. On this hike the patrols carried food for dinner. After dinner, and on the way home, most of the boys were tired but kept up good spirits.
