Treasure Island, PA

30 Jun - 6 Jul 2002

 

Eighteen Scouts and six adult leaders from Troop 1018 enjoyed a wonderful summer camp experience at the oldest continuously operated Boy Scout camp in the USA.  It was a great week filled with activities -- new Scouts completed numerous advancement requirements as "TI Rangers" and all Scouts participated in merit badge and camp-wide activities.  Troop 1018 Scouts earned 43 merit badges during the course of the week and three of our Scouts completed the COPE program. 

(Ignore the dates on the following pictures . . . I forgot to reset the date on the camera).
