Troop 2137 wants to send a HUGE thank you to Troop 2142. The bathrooms we were provided were completely trashed by some less than Scout like kids. They spent at least two hours cleaning about 16 – 20 shower stall. Very classy move on their part. Kudos!!

Another hot steamy day at Jamboree. We have had three short rains. Only one was heavy and sent everyone scattering for cover. The boys spent the day participating in activities, doing some patch trading and shopping at the trading post. Many of you have gifts coming…..other than getting your son back. 
One of the highlights of the day was having NASCAR drives Dale Jr. and Jeff Gordon visiting.
A side note, we are currently having our fourth rain and it is a downpour. Hopefully it will slack off as quickly as the others.
We got to help JP Greggo celebrate his 14th birthday this evening with a cake.
Tomorrow morning at 6:00 AM is a 5K fun run/walk and several of our boys have decided to get up early and participate.
That’s all for now. Hopefully we will have a much drier day tomorrow.
Why feet get tired at Jamborees

One thing common to any high adventure program is tired feet. This map shows the relative sizes of some Last Frontier Council camps compared at the same scale with the Jamboree site as well as Disney’s Magic Kingdom – all of which produce tired feet at the end of the day.
