Scout Camp

Geoffrey and Brent went to scout camp Jun 23-30.  Brent went as a leader.  For Geoffrey this was his first week-long camp.  They had lots of fun.  Geoffrey finished earning First Class rank and got the Metalworking, Rifle Shooting, Environmental Science and Small Boat Sailing merit badges.  Here are some pictures.  Brent took lots of video.  Once he uploads to his computer I'll post some clips.
