On May 3-5 Troop 626 Scouts participated in the annual Camporee at Ensign Ranch.
At Camporee we were lucky to have warm and sunny skies and absolutely no rain! For those of you who don’t know Camporee is an annual event organized by the Order of the Arrow where scouts have fun, preforming skits, practicing essential scout skills and passing different ropes course challenges. The day is split apart into two sections, the first part of the day field events, and the second part of the day high adventure. Field events is basically where you go around the field and are faced with different types of scenarios that force you and your team to work together to overcome. This part of the day focuses on testing your scouting knowledge and skills. High adventure is where scouts work together to overcome obstacles in rope challenges. This part of the day is mainly focused on your teamwork abilities. After this we have the campfire, where scouts gather around at the camp-fire bowl and different patrols perform skits for each other. Overall I think this was a fun, bonding experience between scouts and I would definitely do this again.
