29 Palms Primitive Camp – Jan 16 to 18.

29 Palms Primitive Camp is just around the corning in mid January and I’m told it’s something every scout should experience (parents too). 

Oh no!!! What are you going to do?!!!!?  HOW WILL YOU SURVIVE!!!!?!!?? THIS ONE IS A BLAST!!!!!!!
 
Any parents have ideas for cooking breakfast in rustic manner? And we’ll be needing lots of wood
 
Scouts!!!!!……You will:

Dig trenches to set your lean-to up to and sleep in.  
Dig a latrine
Cook a turkey over a fire pit!
Bake a chocolate cake in an oven you’ll make! 
Go on an orienteering expedition and maybe play against Mr. Wold and Mr. Taylor!
Explore
Play capture the flag and mafia
Learn some survival skills
…and much more.!!!!
