Encampment

In November, the younger two and I went to encampment. It was middle daughter's last. Who doesn't like smores by an indoor firepit? 

The girls did a lot of service projects including making birthday bags for the food shelf. 
This game is British and a lot of fun. The die goes around the circle until someone gets a six.  That person runs around the circle until they get back to their spot. They sit down and put on the scarf and oversized gloves.  Then, they try to get a piece of the king-sized candy bar using a fork and knife.  If they get a piece their turn is over. Meanwhile, the die continues to be passed around the circle.  If another person gets a six, they run around the circle and then have to get the scarf and gloves off the person currently wearing them and try for the chocolate. The game ends when the chocolate is gone!

Making fleece blankets was another service project.  This one was nice because it had cutting lines printed on it.  Even though I haven't been a leader for a couple of years, I am still registered and I end up going with one troop or another and join in on the fun!
