Weiger and Woodward. The
Jack Woodwards, by the way,
comprising a full patrol of
seven persons, drove UP on
Thursday, Aug. %, and exer-
cised squatters' rights on the
camp site.
To help keep the ladies' from
losing their newly discovered
enthusiasm for camping, the
men did the cooking. 1t was
patrol cooking, you might say,
with the assistant patrol leaders
doing the honors.
The highlight of the pleasant
weekend was the Council Fire
on Sunday evening. T-447 in.
vited a troop from the Philadel.
phia area to join in the fun.
They were happy to accept and
participated in the skits. Both
troops had hilarious evening.
1t was with a certain sadness
that the group broke up on
Labor Day afternoon, with the
family patrols piling into their
respective vehicles. Although
the campout was over, all
agreed that the happy memo
ries would linger on to the next
one.
