Turkey and omelet competitions

November is the campout with a big communal meal, a gaga ball pit and an omelet competition.

This year scouts cooked everything but the turkey cooked in a trash can — that was tended to by our VFW Charter Representative Andy Airasian. Scouts cooked potatoes, beans, stuffing, prepared cranberry sauce and served all the food, making sure to clean up afterwards.

Sunday morning scouts had an omelet-making competition won by Nico, who added a surprising number of peas to a perfectly flipped dish.

It wasn’t just food this trip: There were fishermen checking out the pond, a gaga ball challenge, scouts learned how to use an axe and Duncan was master of ceremonies at the campfire program.

We can’t wait for next year’s trip.
