Doane Valley Campout

The scouts of troop 718 had a chilly evening of camping on Mount Palomar at the Doane Valley Family camp on 24-25 October. Connor H., Connor M, and Devon A. enjoy cooking dinner.

Cesar C. still attended despite a broken ring
finger on his right hand.







Connor H., Connor M., Cesar C., and Devon A. have their tent setup and are ready to hit the sack.






Devon A. served as the cook for the campout and did a great job.



Fishing at Doane Pond was not happening. Water is low and too warm and the aquatic plants were overgrown.
