Scout Activities Highlight Week With Camp, Trail and Frost

Several Scouts attended a Court of Honor in Spindale Tuesday night and others traveled to Gastonia last Saturday to see a Pueblo Indians band from New Mexico. They enjoyed an outlook meeting Monday, built a trail to Mr. P. R. Greene’s estate in Fairview and used his land freely. The group traversed a town trail, encountered two snakes, cooked meals in the woods, and played games near a stream. A boy fell into the stream, getting soaked, and some campers reported a light frost on their blankets the following morning. The Troop plans an overnight camp soon.
