Mt. Lemmon - Cub Scout Campout '09
















Here are a few pictures from our really fun 24 hour campout on Mt. Lemmon this weekend. It's a lot of work to camp for just one night...but it was really fun. The boys LOVED the great outdoors and we really enjoyed the cool evening and morning! I think there will be more camping in our future!

As part of the camp-out the kids crossover to the next rank...by physically walking over a bridge and then having the previous rank neckerchef removed. They are given their new rank book and a new neckerchef. You can see the difference between the orange Tiger rank in the flag ceremony pictures and the new yellow Wolf rank after the Crossover. The Tigers, now Wolfs got to lead their very first flag ceremony - bringing in the flags to start the meeting...Let's just say, the flags took 3-4 kids and 1 adult to hold upright! :-)

Looks like fun! We always say it requires the same amount of stuff whether you go for 1 night or 5 nights. So you might as well go for 5! Though the novelty of sleeping on the ground probably wears off faster than that. You'll have to work on that formula and let us know.
