Here is the Troop Scribe’s take on the weekend adventure at Camp Rotary:

“Saturday morning, after we ate breakfast, we went tubing. We were there for two hours. The weather was perfect and the opened up all four tubing hills, which was awesome because they didn’t last year. When we got back everyone made lunch, then we went down to the lake and played hockey and curling on the lake. The lake was solid enough to go on so that was good. After that we all went inside for dinner and played cards games and socialized for the rest of the night. Sunday morning we packed up pretty fast and left for home.”

The troop went to Camp Rotary in Clare, Michigan for a weekend of tubing and other winter sports in accordance with Winter Sports theme of the month.
