Ransburg Scout Reservation

A good time was had by everyone that went to summer camp this year. Ransburg is situated on a large lake and has excellent facilities. A large number of scouts come to Ransburg each year and our week was no exception. There were 637 campers and 140 staff in camp during the week. The staff provided a quality program even with the large numbers of people in camp. We enjoyed swimming, boating, horseback riding, climbing, rifle shooting, hiking, archery, just to name a few. Merit badges and rank advancement went well. The weather was hot, but all in all it would of been hard to have a better week at camp. Many wanted to go to summer camp at Ransburg again.
Those attending summer camp this year were Alex D., Alex U., David, DJ, Eric, Jared, Joey J., Joey P., Justin, Kevin, Kyle, Matt K., Matt S., Nate, Philip, Ryan, Steven, Mr. Dzurnak, Mr. Makowski, Mr. Svihlik, Mr. Thomas, Mr. Ulintz.
