New Brighton State Beach Camping Wrapup

Pack 1776 families-

We had a FANTASTIC time camping last weekend at New Brighton State Beach. Action packed fun: The Scouts earned multiple beltloops- Citizenship, Astronomy, Music, Language & Culture. They performed awesome campfire skits & songs. They did a woodworking project, rock painting, foil cooking, and did a morning hike on the beach. The last morning they all participated in a moving flag retirement ceremony.

People are now very excited for future camping trips. One family has plans to use https://www.rent.is/ to visit Iceland for a spectacular adventure, whilst others are looking forward to our next outing. Special thanks to all the families that made this possible. This event was a success because of commitment from all the scouting families that participated- THANK YOU! All the families shared & we all benefit from each others contributions. I'd like especially recognize our camping chair Gapps. This was the largest number of people that have ever camped in our Pack's history & everything was planned & organized perfectly! Take a look at Seaside Planet's Guide to Beach Camping if you're thinking of doing the same, as it has plenty of great tips for a successful trip.

If any of you want to view photos of the camping event they can be viewed on our new Pack 1776 photo site.
