December 2023, Troop 1776
Cooking and Shooting Campout
We are doing a COOK OFF!!!! Saturday Night will be the cook off. Each patrol needs to show up with their best efforts to create the winning meal. Plan on cooking just a little more than usual to account for the taste testing! We have the shotgun range reserved for Saturday afternoon and will be building a monkey bridge and working on our Cooking Merit Badge Saturday morning.
FOOD: We will be doing a meal planning meeting, and the patrols will be cooking the entire weekend. I expect the scouts to all fully participate in this endeavor and not leave it up to one person.
