Boy Scout Camp

Kyle went to scout camp this week to volunteer as the aquatics director at the camp. The camp is located just north of town, so Tuesday night Kyle invited the boys and I to share his tent and check it out.
By the time we got there it was dinner time, so we didn't witness any merit badges. Since Kyle is over the water activities, he spends most of his time at the lake.
He really enjoys helping out with scout camp and learning new things. He is sporting the texan look with his cowboy hat and longhorn council shirt.
The night we were there they had skit and song night. They also had some guys from the American Legion there to retire some flags by burning them. It was a really nice night and the boys seemed to enjoy it. Of course it hasn't been easy for me with Kyle being gone all week. The boys do drive me crazy at times so it has been a long week. All that being said, I am glad Kyle has found a way to help others in the community and learn some wonderful skills. Afterall, that is what being an Eagle scout is all about, right?
