A cold first night turned into a great weekend of fun at AirCamp!  Plenty of aircraft, scout games, archery, exhibits, and an enormous encampment of scouts!  Two of our scouts even went up in a helicopter!   This is a once-every-four years event sponsored by Blackhawk council in Rockford, IL. 

Another GREAT year at Summer Camp!  A week in the woods and on the water.  What could be better?

Camping at the Apple River Fort State Historic Site, the scouts had a couple of cold (26F) nights but both days were clear and warm, making for a great pilgrimage to Galena, IL. They hunted trivia from the Generals, visited museums and a working historical blacksmith shop, and of course the incredible battle reenactment!
