2024-05-12: Watersports Weekend

This past weekend we had a wonderful time at the Allatoona aquatics base. We had perfect weather and we got to use kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards! Thank you to our grub masters for making great food and shout out to Elisiah who stepped up to be a grub master because we were short a grub master. We also made great time getting out of the campsite on Sunday. The weekend could not have had a better weekend!

For our April Campout, we heading to one of our old stomping grounds, Chickamauga Battlefield! Chickamauga is a really cool place with a ton of history and some easy hiking for a good shake down distance hike. In the morning we explored and battlefield and monuments and the afternoon was filled with kubb, axe yard, and relaxation. Pretty great trip as we get closer to summer!

2024-03-22: Troop Training Campout

Did you miss our March Campout? Here’s a recap! We went up to Bert Adams to enjoy the outdoors. Our scouts had a great time practicing essential scouting skills such as fire building, tool safety, and flag handling and raising. The rain on Friday night was not the best addition to the camp out but our scouts worked together to put up tents under the pavilion and carry them out into the rain. The camp out was a success and our scouts had an amazing time.

Court of Honor

2024-02: Court of Honor

This past Monday, we had our first Court of Honor of 2024 and boy was it jam packed! In just that last 6 months, our scouts have earned 37 merit badges, completed 33 rank advancements, we have 5 new eagle scouts, 11 other awards, plus 3 Foothills District Good Eggs. Our previous SPL Xan, also passed the leadership torch on to our new SPL Devin and the entire new leadership team was sworn in. Congratulations to all the scouts on all you’ve accomplished and thank you to the entire Troop 2319 Advancement Team, putting together a court of honor takes a lot of work and we really appreciate all you all do.

Adopt-A-Mile

2024-01-28: Adopt A Mile

We had our first successful #KeepCobbBeautiful Adopt A Mile over the weekend! It may have been a little chilly, but sometimes the job still has to get done. Thanks everyone who came out. We didn’t collect that many bags of garbage this time, but that’s actually a good thing because it means that thanks to our efforts, the road is staying cleaner and cleaner!

 

Eagle Project

Eagle Proj: Kenric N.

My eagle project was to build two storage bins for Simpson Middle School. They will be used to store sports equipment and other equipment that the school would like to keep outdoors.
There were 15 scouts and 6 adult leaders who were present. It was a cold windy day but every scout braved the weather and put in their best effort. We made 2 teams, each building 1 storage bin to optimize time. Everything went smoothly and fine. we had a small challenge with the slow closing hinge but with the guidance and expertise of the leaders we were able to complete the build. Thanks everyone who came out to help!

Had a great & relaxed weekend at Woodruff Scout Camp! It might have been a little chilly, but we still had tons of fun and scouts got a lot accomplished. Some scouts knocked out a 5 mile hike, some finished up their camp cooking, others spent the afternoon in the ax yard, a few went fishing, and a couple even completed their trail cooking! We finished up the day with a warm campfire with skits & songs. Couldn’t ask for better.
