2019 Summer Camp at Rainey Mountain

Scouts had a great time at Camp Rainey Mountain summer camp.  A few scouts enjoyed the cooking MB class, except when the counselors ate all of the food.   Our first year scouts were all together at fire safety, which was a little on the boring side, until they started brainstorming all the things that could catch on fire at different holidays...sounds like some families will have an exciting holidays. 

Caving at Tumbling Rock

In January, a few brave members went on a wild cave tour at Tumbling Rock Caverns in Alabama.   With our excellent guide, David Lawrence, we spent about 8 hours exploring the cave, and probably only covered about a third of it.  We are planning to go back later this year to explore more.

Summer Camp 2018 at Camp Rainey Mountain

Troop 435 had a great time at Camp Rainey Mountain the past two years.  Staff is great!  So much so, the scouts voted to go back in 2019 and a couple are applying to be on staff.
