This year Troop 542's Pre-Camporee was held at Scouter's Mountain.
Pre-Camporee is held to ready the Scouts for the activities,
games, and competitions that will be held next month at Camporee.
Only two words can adequately describe this campout...RAIN and
MUD! Troop 542 got a taste of what Lewis & Clark must have went
through the winter of 1805 when it rained nearly every day of
their stay in Oregon.
Many of the activities we had planned for
Saturday were delayed due to rain, but we eventually were
able to complete all that we had planned.
Fort Courage, home of Troop 542 for two days, and
courage we will need to outlast the rain.
