Troop 152 at Frontiersman Cabin

Last weekend was my troops campout at Camp Lowden to work on Frontiersman Cabin.  We got started at 9:30 AM and finished at 10:00 PM.  It was a long day and everyone did a great job.  Thanks to Mike McCleary for organizing the work date and all those from Troop 152 that came out to help.  We even had a special treat from Betty Miller who brought out dinner. We were able to finish the ceiling, insulation, and install an outdoor outlet.

Outdoor outlet added on the North side of Frontiersman.

Camp Lowden Weekend, October 16, 2010

I was out at Camp Lowden on Saturday to help with a couple of projects.  It was great to see all the activity at camp.  There was training going on, OKPIC cold weather camping training, NYLT staff development, and Scoutmaster outdoor training.  There were two troops that went canoeing and another that was out to use the shooting range.  Mighty Pack 5 from Winnebago was out for the day as well.  All together there must have been 350 scouts, parents, and volunteers using the camp facilities.  In addition we had work crews out staining Winnebago Cabin - Frontiersman Cabin was done on Thursday by Ed Allen and hit brother Don - as well as work on the soffit and fascia for both cabins. It's great to see our camps getting this much use.  Next Saturday, October 23, is the Wood Cut day at Camp Lowden, consider coming out to help.
