Cub Scout Day camp

We had our Cub Scout Day camp yesterday- Ben and his group of Boy Scouts are camping nearby, and they were the instructors for our day camp. It was SO neat to see the Boy Scouts mentoring the Cubs. We stamped leather wristbands, made soda pop rocket launchers (see this post for more info on the rocket launchers. They played ultimate frisbee, did boondogle, cooked their hot dogs for lunch. Launched water balloons at the Boy Scouts. And had a real live lesson in Fire Safety (thankfully it was put out quickly, and the boys all learned- especially the Boy Scout who was playing around with a lighter)
