Scout Uniform

As a troop, we have a lot of work to do with our uniforms. I am in the process of picking up a new uniform. The one I have from my teens is a little snug. Please make efforts to obtain a new uniform for your scout. We have soem events coming up that we want to make sure we look somewhat official. Please let me know if you have any issues with this. You can get everything you need at the Boy Scout Office.

The BSA Centennial Uniform

Design for the latest boy scout uniform came out in August, 2008. The colors are pretty much the same so new uniform pieces can be transitioned as old ones are outgrown. A big difference is red shoulder loops and unit numbers are now forest green. The uniform is promoted as more versatile and wearable in the field instead of just for meetings.

March Camp Out

Troop 900 ventured out on another overnight camp out in March. With snow still on the ground, we opted for a cabin at Camp Lazarus.

Here is Q capturing some solitary time.

Q was also in charge of starting the fire while the other boys gathered wood. Good work Q! I'm pretty sure you used only one match...

The troop kept warm by the fire as they prepared the coals for dinner.

Tin foil dinners for everyone. What a treat!

Todd went for a classic meal of beef, potatoes, and carrots. Old reliable!

Ian got creative. I'm not sure what it was but we know it was done. You can see the extra toasty outer crust. Yummy!

Jacob went for a quick and easy technique. Two frozen pizza's stacked on top of each other. He seems to be enjoying it...

The night ended with a few games. We started with Clove Hitch on a Tree. Here you see Q and Ben battling it out in a round of Bull Riders.
