Troop 27 setup a large orienteering
course on the far side of the inlet . Note the three
starting markers and the patrol running the course by the
line of Juniper trees. |
T21 ASPL Jeff Morris reads the description of his symptoms to a patrol at the First Aid competition. Scouts must correctly diagnose the situation, then explain and demonstrate proper treatment for such incidents as heat exhaustion, arterial bleeding, broken leg, and shock. Patrols also had to take a written quiz on First Aid topics. |

In the Baden Powell Challenge, each
Troop selected six boys to work as a "patrol".
Each patrol had to load a backpack with tent, sleeping
bag, stove, pan, and matches. The patrol then ran 100
yards from the starting point to the setup area, pitched
the tent, deployed the sleeping bag, put a scout in the
bag, setup the stove, lit the stove, cooked an egg
(fully), had the scout in the bag eat the egg, then broke
camp, packed up all the gear and ran to the finish line.
Patrols were judged based on best time. In other words,
it was barely controlled pandemonium. |
Jeff Morris, Schuyler
Leonard, Adam Dickey, Spencer Ardt, and Eric Fredstrom
scramble to setup the stove while Anthony Moorman
patiently waits in the sleeping bag for his egg. |
