Geneva Troop 5

Camp Big Timber, March 19-20, 2004


This was our first Electric Campout. Video games, DVDs, etc. not only allowed, but required! We stayed in the "T" Lodge at Camp Big Timber. Saturday started out overcast, but the first day of spring turned out to be beautiful.
It wasn't until I began to put this page together that I realized Dale didn't use his dutch oven on this outing!
