Troop Meeting

Brother Hoopes led the scouts in a pre-opening activity, Hi-Lo, in which scouts had to stand in line in order from high to low, based on height, weight, age, and other factors, without talking.

The scouts planned for the upcoming ice fishing activity, and played a decision-making game. Each patrol had to decide what to do if they went to a movie, got their late, saw a long line, thought they might not make it into the theater, then see a friend towards the front of the line.
