It was a beautiful day for Scout Camp. Air temp around 54 degrees and “the water was warmer than the air”.  Three and then four men struggled from the fartsack to endure a unique at the cabin. Great time was had by all and we have to do it again!

Warm up: 10 of each in cadence, with your life vest on: Windmills, Cotton Pickers, SSH, Drunken Hillbillies, and Mercans.

The Thang: Gather your paddle and launch your canoe or kayak. 1/2 mile paddle to exercise the shoulders over to Charleston Park for phase 2. Phase 2 was a 3 mile trail run on the bike trails to work out the legs. Refreshing dip in the water was optional before boarding your craft and paddling back. Canoe and paddle carry up the hill to the house.

CoT: Standard wrap up and prayers

Naked Man Moleskin: Great food and drink with everyone contributing to the event. After dinner a nice time on top of the dock looking at stars and the airplanes headed to ATL. Manhole broke the ice and led us for an evening swim across the cove. Great game of Spades followed with a passional discussion of how best to take the talent of F3 Shadow and engage and improve the community!

Everyone eventually found a bed and Saturday morning there were vocal protests against bootcamp before coffee! Great morning with Ralph serving breakfast, Manhole spending too much time in the shower sitting on the bench and Fireballs slicing homemade bread for toast. A little boat ride and waterskiing (home field advantage) got us to lunch.
