Etiwan camporee



This weekend's Etiwan district camporee was a great success due to Dan Miklancic's outstanding work in planning and executing the event. The scouts and adult leaders of Troops 11, 59, 502, 20 and Pack 9 all learned quite a bit more than expected due to his hard work. Have any of you ever heard of a "spanish windlass?"

Our scouts had a great time! Acting SPL Wythe Crisler and ASPL Michael Hall did a great job in running the bridge building event and our combined patrol of Gators/Frogs did many amazing feats of building on the fields of the old Santee Gun Club, now Santee Coastal Reserve
(for background on the old Santee Gun Club cut and paste this link

PLC tomorrow as we plan for the rest of November, election for SPL and PLC leadership requests will be coming up soon...
