Joshua Survives Cub Scout Day Camp



Joshua went to Cub Scout Day camp this week at Camp Stevens, down by the French Broad River. He enjoyed archery, BB guns, and making home-made paper which they shaped (in cookie cutters!) into shapes to give to their fathers on Father's Day. He also got to play kick ball, make an animal mask, participate in a flag ceremony, and talk about animals. (I imagine they got to talk about animals a lot, since the theme for this year was a Jungle theme!)

He did have a hard time with the running they asked him to do, and some of the boys in his den were just as pushy as he can be, so that was a bit upsetting. But he liked hiking around the camp, and he even came up with the "cheer" for their den. All-in-all it turned out to be a great week.

(In the slide show below you can see a couple of pictures of him, his den, and even his two cousins, Erik and David Hobson.)

Thanks for your kind comments on my blog.
Seth and I were involved in cub scouts for years and attended lots of day camps. Sounds like this was a good one.

It was, but don't expect Joshua to say so! :)
