Summer Camp at Summit Bechtel Reserve

(June 28 - July 4)

This year, troop 680 returned to the Summit Bechtel Reserve for summer camp after visiting Ockanickon Scout Reservation  last year.  Troop 680 had a fun and successful time at the Summit.   The Troop earned a lot of Merit Badges and did a lot of activities. Troop 680 also received the Honor Troop award and every single shooting award that Summit had to offer.  The Scouts had a lot of fun doing their Merit Badges on Monday-Thursday and fun doing other activities on Friday.   The newest Scouts in the Troop also participated in a new Scout program (called Brownsea Island) every morning except Friday.  On Friday. some of the Scouts did the Big Zip, some did whitewater rafting, some did shooting sports activities , some did other random activities, and some sat and hung out around camp.   Many Scouts also did a lot of whittling while sitting around our campsite.  We also built an evening  campfire on Wednesday in our campsite and invited one of the other Troops over to enjoy the campfire.  Overall Troop 680 had a very good time at Summit and got a lot of Merit Badges.
