Scouts do the J-stroke on Lake Washington

On Sunday, September 20th, ten of our scouts participated in the annual Mercer Island Canoe Race. hosted by Troop 457 Mercer Island. This year we had beautiful weather too!

Six teams competed in the relay race that consisted of 5 legs around Mercer Island, covering a total distance of 13 miles. Scouts who participated were, Sam R., John T., Jacob T., Cory B., Harrison K., Ricky A., Gabe R., Chris F., David A., and Alex L. Mr. Thackray captained our spotter boat and Mr. Lodge was our official Coast Guard spotter.

It was a tough race, but everyone had a great time; especially at the AWESOME picnic hosted by Troop 457!
