Previously...

When last I wrote, I ended with a bit of a Cliffhanger... The two troops who were in the Volleyball finals were, Troop 99 from St. Marys PA, and Troop 28 from Warren OH. Troop 99 had the Homefield Advantage, AND won the Coin Toss! It was a fierce battle! Neither team gave up more than one point at a time. It was anyones game, until Troop 99 started pulling ahead! Soon, it was Troop 99 up by 4 points with a score of 12 serving 8! Then... It was like something out of a movie... Troop 28 pulled the following shot off!



Slowly they started catching up... First it was 9-12, then it was 10 to 12... Next thing you know... Troop 28 won!




Everyone had a lot of fun! The teams kept playing for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th places. They just didnt want to stop.

Now, there were a few other things going on at Camp as well...

The 1/4 Mile Swim...



The opening round of the Games Tournament. Round one was Connect Four, the winner was the best 3/5 games played.



There was even Open Handicraft. They were having sessions on working with Plastic Lacing. This type of craft is also known as "Boondoggle" or "Gimp" It is creating a braid with four strands of lacing, and usually ends up as a lanyard, key chain, or bracelet. It is very time consuming, but really neat when finished.



All in all, it was a very busy day! I don't think anyone was in their campsite Monday night! Scouts, Leaders, and Staff alike were all having fun. Which is what camp is about.

One last thing... I would like to thank Alan Chambers from Troop 28. He is a professional photographer, and graciously let me use all the pictures you see in todays post. For more information, visit his website at www.achambersphoto.com The flying dog is one of my favorite pics there! So thanks again Alan, we appreciate it!
