We arrived Friday afternoon at Nobscot and brought the gear up in several loads. By then it was dark so we set up our tents as the adults prepared dinner, which was beef and beans with chili. After dinner we hung around the fire for a while and then went to bed.
Saturday morning, several more Scouts arrived, and we had a breakfast of eggs, bacon, and various other things. We then watched the ceremony for the beginning of the freeze-out, and loaded the sled with the proper gear. We got lost at the beginning of the competition, but then we managed to get to all the events except the flag raising and Easter egg hunt. We did well in several events. We also had a bag lunch after shelter building. As we were ending with the fire building, we realized we were late and had to run to get to the sled race. We performed well, and managed to get around the track quickly. Since our campsite was where the sled race started, we didn’t have to go anywhere once we finished. Later that night we had a dinner of beef, vegetable, and dumpling stew. After that, we went down to go to the troop skits. Our troop performed the bridge skit. We then went back to camp and had a cracker barrel. We went to sleep.
On Sunday morning we got up, had some of the breakfast from yesterday morning, and started getting the tents down. We then went to the awards ceremony. We didn’t get any awards but we did our best, which is what matters. We then got all the gear into loads and began bringing it downhill. After getting everything down, we waited for parents to pick us up, and we went home.
