cajuncody Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I know day camp is different than summer camp but I had to say "Attention all leaders, we have a lost child . . .again" after den leaders took their kids to lunch at McDs with out signing out . .. again. So how about "Have you seen . . ." Kristi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhendron Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 My first scout summer camp, probably about 3:00 AM. I am a light sleeper, and I can hear when the boys get up to head to the latrine and whey they get back to their tent. So, I am laying there and I hear a stirrin' nearby, then the sound of a tent flap opening. Shortly thereafter, I hear the telltale sound of a scout taking care of business NOT in the latrine. I poke my head out and shine the flashlight in the direction of falling liquid. Sure enough, he is standing there (fully dressed, of course) at the entrance to the tent, peeing out in front of it. I said quietly, "Justin, the latrine is right over there. Perhaps you could use that instead?" He looks at me with a completely serious expression on his face and said, "I'm afraid of the dark. I have to do the same thing at home." (and I go back to sleep thinking...does his mom know??) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK-Eagle Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I'll add to the chaos 1. A Patrol Leader saying "I learned this in NYLT..." 2. A Commissioner saying "I was just thinking.." 3. A Professional saying "Trust me..." 4. A Eagle Scout chuckling "Watch this..." 5. A Scoutmaster saying "Where's the duct tape?"

msnowman Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 "Watch this - this is going to be soooo cool!". I have learned that whenever Nephew tells me a story and it starts with "I was trying to be cool and..." there is never a good ending.

Fuzzy Bear Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 At the end of a long day on the river, I hear Jeremy saying that he wore his Scout shorts all day without sunscreen. When I look around he is standing up on a rock with what he called red Scout Socks on. I am lounging in camp when one of the Scouts runs up and tells me that Mike got hit in the head with a rock. We are in the middle of the second day of a Fifty miler and and two of the younger Scouts have decided that they, "can no longer carry their packs".

grampye Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Ah yes. Winter Campout. 10 degrees. 2 AM. Tent starts shaking. Words I don't want to hear again, for sure. "Mr. E, Brian knocked over a gallon of Orange Juice in our tent!" It was about that time I began considering that opening on the district committee more seriously.
