CAMP FRIEDLANDER 2009  (Friday~Sunday, April 3~5)
Page 3

After the hike, it was back to camp for lunch.  During the afternoon, Cubs mostly paired off with their moms or dads to go fishing, do some more hiking around, revisit the obstacle course, or play in the sand on the volleyball court.  Several dads took on the project of building a campfire for Saturday night and other parents cooked the evening meal so the boys could play.  After a truly grand meal, the group roasted marshmallows around a campfire.

 
Saturday lunch was the ever popular camp favorite "Box Oven Pizza."  The Cubs got to make their own pizzas and cook them in a cardboard box oven.   Pack 868's resident chefs (Sam Borquez, Steven Frank, Leo Heppler, and Alan Wetzel) undertook the task of cooking grilled chicken for Saturday dinner.
 
Mrs. Rich, Mrs. Brown, and Mrs. Zimmerman got to play "lunch lady" and do the serving.   Den Chief Chris Brown sat with a group Cub Scouts.
 
The campfire was more than sufficient to roast marshmallows and the heat felt good on a cool April night.   It's amazing how many marshmallows and smores a group of Cub Scouts (and Cub Scout parents) can eat.
 
There's just something special about the fellowship around a campfire.   On Sunday morning, a few dads didn't want to roll out of bed ... until Mr. Meek turned the "wake up crew" loose with his bull horn.
 
For Sunday morning breakfast, campers had their choice of hot oatmeal or cold cereal.   These guys are fired up and we aren't even finished with breakfast yet!
