Have you ever slept in a cot under a mosquito netting inside and a frame canvas tent? Well at Rota-Kiwan summer camp, you can. at this summer camp, you can go on hikes, do as many merit badges as you want, go to the trading post and get some candy, slushies’ and suvineors. every day you have to come up with a cheer and that cheer depending on how many claps you get, that troop will get there food first. The spirit stick is a wooden pole that you can decorate however you want. All troops will get to decorate the spirit stick and at the end of the camp, one troop gets to keep the spirit stick. You can also go swimming during free swim which is at 3:30 to 5:00 and 7:00 to 9:00. There is an iceberg that you can climb up and slide down on the other side or jump off the top. They have a gigantic chess set which people love. The water carnival is a carnival in the water. There is the greased watermelon, canoe races, rowboat races and a root beer chug. If you go to Rota-Kiwan summer camp, you will experience all of the fun.
Attendees: Owen, Jake, Christiaan, Brendan, Efrain, Josh and Luke. Travis was working there, so we saw him too.

The hike was just on the best day. With the sun shining it was a great hike. Hiking 5 miles the troop made its way through a waterfall, and also by train tracks. Waterfall glen was a fun hike, though simple lands, we will be prepared when we do 10 mile hikes in the spring. As troop 562 prepares it seems that hikes get easier and easier. Attending: Brendan M., Josh C, Travis B, Mr. B., Mrs. B., Mr. C.
Eagle Cave 2012

Location: Eagle Cave
Summary: All of the boys got to the cave on Friday and Mr. P. and Luke got there on Saturday. Instead of sleeping in tents outside, we slept in a cave under a tarp! The cave was gigantic and had a lot of smaller caves inside of it. Usually only the kids could fit in the littler caves. Everywhere you go inside the cave you saw stalagmites and stalactites! On the outside of the cave was a gift shop/ arcade and there was a mess hall. Inside the cave they had a stuffed animal hunt where people would hide stuffed animals around the cave and people would have to find them and they would win a prize! Even though the cave was public, there were a few bats here and there. Saturday night the people who worked in the mess hall invited people to play bingo after dinner. Once all three stuffed animals were found, they hid them again. The exploration was pretty neat.
