What’s the best thing about summertime?
Well, as some of our scouts would like to suggest, no school!
But aside from not studying and doing homework, summer is the perfect time dust
off backpacks and restock essentials and get outdoors! Whether you are hiking, taking a bike ride up
the pacific coast or camping with your unit or family members, summer is the
best time to explore the great outdoors.
Our camps have been
busy over the past few weeks with our scouts.
Camp Cherry Valley has
been nothing but fun in the sun on the beautiful beach front on Catalina
Island. From water sports like
snorkeling, canoeing, sailing, and swimming. And there’s plenty of trails
to hike over the mountain terrains.
Hubert Eaton Scout Reservation had a busy summer over
at their Camp Big Horn at Circle X Ranch too! Their program included everything
from shooting sports, swimming, crafting, horseback riding and climbing walls
and not to forget their new 1,100-foot Zip Line!
Troop 115 scouts
along with their dads, completed a service project over the summer by refurbishing
the playground equipment at St
Hilary’s in Pico Rivera. Outstanding job scouts and of course to the dads that
helped! Here they are in action, seen below!
No matter where you are at during the summer break, I hope everyone had
a chance to cut loose and have some fun outdoors.
Also, I’d like to take a moment and give a big thanks to Tom Garcia
for putting together
another great District Summer BBQ. Everyone had a great time, and the food was
delicious as always! If you missed out on it this year, we hope that you can
make it out next year.
