Our Spring Camping was March 24th-25th, great job to the scouts who completed navigation by compass and or the sun, as well as checking out the constellations at night or Venus/Mars/Saturn in the morning, setting up tents, learning, and using the bowline knot and just observing and exploring the natural world around us. 

Notable mention to the one scout, scout 016, who achieved the "Camping Skills" badge, and good work to the many who explored some of the scout skills. It was also amazing to see scouts as young as 5, scout 20, engaging with the navigation by compass, girls and boys singing campfire songs, and girls chopping wood (under supervision), scout 001.

What to expect from Nāmakanipaio Campground: A small but nice camp location near the Volcano National Park, with restrooms and firepits it's a good location for beginning campers. It does get very cold in the morning due to elevation, please bring blankets or sleeping bags, warm jackets, or layers of shirts. Sunblock is still recommended, mosquito repellent optional, but recommended. Water is available by the restroom, there is wood that can be gathered (but may or may not be dry), and a shared pavilion with a fire pit and picnic tables, as well as individual fire pits and picnic tables. The cost is $15 for a site, a site may host two tents. We attempt to get the inner circle area, but it's first come first serve, so no guarantee for site locations. 

If you woke up before or near dawn Friday, you probably noticed Venus, Saturn below, and Mars to the right!
