The scouts enjoyed a canoe outing at Cedar Lake last weekend. We braved the rain, experienced catching catfish from a jug line, and practiced how to rescue a swamped canoe in deep water!

Here's another fun outing the scouts experienced this summer. A trip to Fontenelle Forest and the Strategic Air Command and Aerospace Museum in Ashland NE. They climbed, zipped, and swung through trees, and got up close and inside some of the coolest aircraft and spacecraft in the USA.

The troop toured the Madison County Jail this week as part of their fingerprinting merit badge. The scouts were able to experience calling 911, seeing the inside of a jail cell, and being fingerprinted. It was fun to see the 911 operator screen zoom in on the exact location of the call within seconds of receiving it. Thank you to Denny and all the jail staff for hosting us!
