We have been invited to take up to 25 Scouts and up to 10 adults to the West Point Camporee in May. This is a very popular outing, with many competitive events, merit badge courses, Army displays, and other activities. It is organized by the West Point Cadets, with assistance from Soldiers at the post. […]

An intrepid crew had great weather, including plenty of snow, for the Deep Freeze campout in Albion, Maine. Why is snow a good thing? So you can build snow caves, which are much warmer than tents in winter. Of course, anything worth doing is worth overdoing … more photos in the Gallery.

You might want to pick up the Boston Globe today and turn to Section D–Food. Then look at the center of the page (ABOVE the fold, thank you) and read all about this hotshot Boy Scout troop in Lexington that actually cooks its meals outdoors, of all things, and serves a ton of people by […]

The 2006 Cookoree was a smashing success. Nobody counted how many we fed, but I am guessing that it was at least 60.
It appears that too many cooks do not always spoil the broth because just about everybody had a hand in the preparation of the meal which was beautifully cooked and nicely served. The […]

Troop 160,
