Boxwell Sailings

Over the weekend, we went to Boxwell for some pre-high adventure sailing preperation. The first night, we didn’t do any sailing but we did learn important sailing knowledge and techniques. The next morning was spoiled by a large rainstorm, but we eventually got out for some sailing. That day, there wasn’t  much wind. There were several other mishaps such as a serious fight over a fish in which a scout was injured. Also, there were several capsize attacks on the smaller boats. After the sailing was over, we came back for some dinner and a quite interesting fire ceremony with songs and skits. Today’s  morning wasn’t ruined by storm, but we did arrive there a little off schedule. There was better wind, and there were no capsize ambushes or injuries. We then took apart the boats and headed back to camp to eat lunch, pack up, and leave.

Wolverines Patrol Trip

From ziplining to canoeing, this was a great trip, in the opinion of all of us. On that Saturday, we first went ziplining, which was a breeze. Next, we had a fantastic lunch and then headed off for our canoe trip. That was also smooth with the exception of some unfortunate tipping. For dinner, Mr. Steve’s surprise turned out to be delicious steak and baked potatoes. After our fun and ghost stories were over, we turned in for the night. The next morning, all we had to do was pack up and leave. Possibly the only mishaps were the tippings and maybe a couple of misbehaviors here and there, but besides those, this definitely a wonderful trip.

The pollen was so bad in the pine forest that we had to come up with some innovative ways of keeping it out of our mouths.
