Camp, afternoon schedule

Here is my afternoon camp schedule.

Lunch — 12:30 pm
Like breakfast but with different foods.
Oh yah, for camping merit badge we had to cook over an open fire (only Wednesday). I learned important lessons, when pancakes look like scrambled eggs, you used to much water in the batter. And Burnt pancake batter is good drowned in syrup. And Grease fires are bad. And after you put out a grease fire, if you put more grease on, another fire starts.

Siesta — 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm
All program areas and the Trading Post are closed and the Scouts are expected to be in their sites. How fun :P This is why I brought Risk with me. This is supposed to be a time to give the staff a break
.
Afternoon Instruction Period 1 — 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Camping Merit badge, it is my last Eagle required :) All we did was learn about a bunch of things that I already knew (4 years of camping) but did not “officially”.
Thursday night was outpost; we went with the camping guys from 4 on. We also built our own shelter, they told us to bring anything but a fire starter. The Boy Scout motto is “Be Prepared” so I brought duct tape. I was able to sit on the roof of my shelter.

Afternoon Instruction Period 2 — 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm
Electronics!! We got to solder (aka play with molten metal to connect other metals together). We made a little thing that beeps every few seconds, also we learned all about circuits and other things that I learned from The Magic School Bus. Fun class.

Special Interest Program — 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm
SIPs are located at the different areas, I usually go to the pool one. We did things like water polo, beach volleyball, snorkel, Eskimo roll for kayaks…etc. I didn’t earn the patch because one of the days I was at outpost.
