Woodbadge

For the first time in our Scout Council, there was a Woodbadge course offered on two Thursday-Friday-Saturday weekends instead of two Friday-Saturday-Sunday weekends.  I have been wanting to attend woodbadge for years, so I jumped at the opportunity to participate.  As you can see from the pictures, it was a really difficult experience.
We had to survive on meager camp food.
And we had to study dry subjects like obscure Arthurian legends.

It was a great experience, even though it rained all day Thursday and we woke up to snow on Friday morning.

Does that guy have a piano on his back??

I think maybe he was demonstrating how not to pack your backpack. They were part of our indoor campfire program (because of the wind and rain). Remember the knights in Monty Python and the Holy Grail?
