100 Years of Scouting

Jaden and I spent all day Saturday with the wolf scouts at the giant 100 years of scouting celebration. There were over 3500 scouts. The boys had fun preparing for battle making swords, shields, forts, catapults and learning fencing and mapping skills. They then actually got to participate in a huge battle.

Making Swords.

Catapults

Very disappointed that it wasn't working too well!

Grabbing some dinner before the big battle.

Battle time. Look how much dust was in the air!

The Closing ceremonies was complete with a jet fly over, a concert from "T minus 5"(the boys all got autographed CD's after), a televised message from the Prophet and a fireworks show set to the theme songs from Superman, Star Wars and Indiana Jones.
