It's looking like we are going to have to postpone it, as much as I hate to 
do so.  We are going to have to be creative to come up with a theme for the 
September campout as a replacement.  Maybe a practice orienteering one in 
preparation for the Camporee in October.  Jordan and Justin are pretty good 
at compass and map reading (lots of practice at Philmont), and could bring 
the other boys up to speed.  The Scouts had scheduled a couple troop meetings 
as instruction periods for the younger Scouts to get up to speed.

The same from this side.  The more the merrier.
 BW> We may have to share the tents with your
 BW> guys since yall are growing.
I don't think that is a problem, as many of our scouts have their own tents 
(Eureka Timberline) that they prefer to use, and we still have troop tents 
(also Timberlines) from when we were twice as big.
 BW> The November campout will be fun.  I really don't know 
 BW> what me, Jerry,
 BW> and Bab are going to power cook yet, since it is a 
 BW> family campout/flour
 BW> war, I really do believe the boys should cook.  
I have a couple younger scouts that need to cook for advancements.  One needs 
to assist.  We can work something out.
 BW> On the flour war, should
 BW> we pit troop against troop, or have them chose sides?  
 BW> Choosing sides maybe more fair. Watchya think?
Last time they just sort of mixed it up, and it seemed to work well.  I'm 
sure that they will work it out.
