Powhatan District Fall Camporee

Flying Circus, Bealeton, VA

24-26 Oct 2003

Another great District Camporee -- this time at the Flying Circus in Bealeton, VA.  Troop 1018 Scouts were treated to an airshow put on by the Flying Circus, a RC Airplane Demo, including a wide range of models and flight by the US national RC champion, and a falconry demonstration.  Through it all was the usual assortment of clever games in the Patrol Competition -- this time with an aviation theme.  And . . . to top it off . . . a Camporee with no rain!!
