The 2026 First Aid Meet was an exciting and memorable experience that challenged us to apply what we’ve learned in realistic situations. Throughout the event, we worked together as a team to respond to a variety of fun and intense scenarios that tested our first aid skills. Each situation required us to think quickly, communicate clearly, and adapt to changing conditions while under pressure. By the end of the meet, we didn’t just improve our medical knowledge but we also built stronger teamwork and confidence. Overall, the experience showed us how important it is to stay calm, support each other, and work together when it matters most. In the end over 130+ scouts and leaders from across the general Nash district had fun interactive time learning about first aid.

Troop 137 competed in the Klondike derby at Camp Hart on Saturday, the 21st. Klondike is a race where participants complete stations to learn skills and are graded on teamwork and skill. Our troop started early in the morning with the scouts making breakfast. Once we were done we gathered our tools and packed our sleds. Once the derby began everyone sprinted off to complete stations all across the camp. We had to use a 2-man saw to cut wood, shoot in archery, solve puzzles, complete Challenges, and more. We continued this for 8 hours and by the end felt confident in what we had done. Before trophies, we raced our sleds across a field for time. Once it was time for trophies we waited with suspense and won 1st place in teamwork and 1st place overall in the Braves division. Besides just winning we gave a valuable learning experience to our younger scouts, teaching them scout skills. In the end, we all had fun and were happy with what we had done. - Garrett Williams
