For fun out camp staff likes to put on vintage uniforms every Thursday at camp. We break out the old greens and many of the staffers will put on old garrison style caps and some have the campaign hats. It's a fun way to promote Scouting history and I think it has caught on with some of the campers.
As summer camp season his here I just want to remind everyone about my Thrifty Merit Badges option in my Shopify Store. Here troops can get modern era plastic backed merit badges for almost half of what it costs to buy them in the Scout Shop.
I have 304 live auctions on eBay this week. My summer schedule has included very little time for working on listings but this weekend when we have our 24 hours off I hope to load up more to keep the momentum going.
Today we meet with Scouts that are interested in joining our summer camp staff for next year. This is always a fun meeting after lunch to see what a week of drinking the Barstow Kool-Aid does to Scouts. We run a high energy program and lots of kids really love it.
