Midweek Report from Onteora Wednesday, July 18, 2007
So far camp is half over and this is shaping up to be one of our best years ever! This is our 5th year at OSR, and this year Troop 189 was the largest Troop in camp for our period. Our Troop is represented with a full range, from brand new first year campers up to Staff.
The weather has been good. Even though Long Island has had a few major storms since we left, the camp did not. Even today, the big storms back home did not reach us. When we checked in on Sunday there was a little rain, but Monday and Tuesday were perfect days. It rained last night, but only after the boys were in bed.
Everyone has been busy working on Merit Badges and enjoying all of the activities that the camp has to offer. OSR Days are long days, packed with activity. We already have a stack of earned achievements, and the boys are rightfully very proud of what they have accomplished. Charles, Matt B and Zach were inducted into the Order of the Arrow, the national scouting honor society.
