It was a cold wet weekend in May. The forecast for Friday, rain, for Saturday, rain, and for Sunday, rain. I hope the new scouts brought the right equipment for the weekend or else they’re in for a wet one. When we arrived it was raining. “What is the first thing to put up?” asked the Senior Patrol Leader, Nathan, to the Raging Rams. The answer is the dining fly in order to keep our personal gear dry.
After everything was set up tents and all, David H and Matthew M taught the Raging Rams how to start a fire and the different types of fires. The rest of the night the troop played capture the flag. In the morning the Screaming Eagles and the Crows/Penguins both had pancakes with eggs and bacon. The Raging Rams had one-eyed jacks. Shortly after breakfast each of the patrols were assigned to service projects around the Monastery grounds. The Screaming Eagles pulled out weeds along the driveway and in the front garden. The Crows/Penguins/Raging Rams cleaned out overgrown vegetation around the front part of the property. We went for lunch after the service projects and then worked on advancement. Our evening activity was dodge the rain with a few songs mixed in. The muddy members of 810 included Alex D.(1), Chris C., David H., DJ, Donald, Eric(1), Jacob D., Jacob S., Joey P.(1), John, Jordan, Justin(1), Kevin, Kurtis, Kyle(1), Matt S.(1), Matthew M., Nate, Nick, Sam, Steven, Mr. Dzurnak, Mr. Makowski, Mr. Mayher, Mrs. Verhovnik(0).
