Day Camp

Our Cub Scouts went to Day Camp in June, and I was able to help out in the Arts and Crafts area (which covered drawing, painting, leather working, woodburning, boat painting, rock collecting, pirate hat making, and so on). I mostly helped with the woodburning and rock collecting, and only had to send a few boys to first aid with burns (sigh).

One of the really cool things that they did was create a sibling den for the kids of parent volunteers who were too young for scouts but a little too old for tot lot. Both Colin and Spencer were able to go and do just about everything the other scouts did, including BB guns and archery. I loved watching their hats fill up with doodles - they were covered by the end of the week! Here are some pictures.

That looks like so much fun! I can't wait until our boys get to officially go together next year! (Of course, that means WE get to go too! Fun stuff!)
