3 days of competing in 30 degree temperatures, 60 degrees colder than last time. How fun...
We competed with some other troops in the region in events like discus throw, orienteering, pioneering, first aid, archery, rifle shooting, tomahawk throwing, and obstacles. For some bizarre reason we didn't win as many events as last time.
