Monroe Troop 203- first camp out
Troop 203, Monroe’s newest Boy Scout troop, recently participated in their first camp out at Camp Bullowa in Stony Point, NY. While there they attended and participated in Scout Day at nearby West Point Military Academy. Prior to attending the Army- Morgan State football game, they were treated to a personal tour of the West Point campus, witnessed the Cadet Review/Military Parade, parachute demonstrations, and participated in Cadet club activities. After the game they returned to camp and prepared a delicious dinner and prepared for the stormy weather predicted for overnight. The forecast was spot on as the troop woke to ice and a frozen slush covered camp. As troop 203’s scouts are all experienced, the weather did not deter them from proceeding with plans to cook an outstanding breakfast of pancakes and sausage.
