KY-TN Conference Camporee--Part 7


Sunday morning breakfast was an assortment of hot and cold cereal and pancakes.

After breakfast, the pathfinders watched and participated in "fire building without matches" activities.

Then it was time to break camp, pack up all our gear, police the campsite for trash, and head for home.

Once the pathfinders were delivered safely to their families, the staff and their families unloaded, put away, set tents up to dry then repacked them, etc.

It had been a great experience--in spite of the cold and wet!

Pathfinder Staff Campout--part 2

After lunch, several people tried their hands (feet, breath, etc.) at matchless fire building.

Mr. L and Mr. B tried to start a fire with a bow drill.
They got smoke, but no flames.

Mr. P and T were each successful in getting flames using flint and steel.
