Any thoughts where I can get 100% wool socks? I'd prefer about four more pairs of CF ones, but I'm running out of contacks who's MOC is infantry? Any ideas? Thanks, Bill.

We have a nice landscape, forests, lakes, streams, practicaly everything you'd need, for a proper scouting experience. I believe we've got quite af few international campsites, e.g. Houens Odde, like Richard told you. Well... That's all I can think of telling you right now. Richard and I can probably tell most of what you need to know, so feel free to ask.

Great weather and a slight breeze to keep the black flies down. Will do the same thing next year! We may have also signed 4 more adults for Group Committee - HURRAY! Now maybe I can step down and just help you with Scouts! Time will tell!

Candy says that is should be in soon but probably not till after he leaves :( Will have to see what we can do to get it to him. Maybe you and I could drive down in the new year and present it to him in front of his new troop? Time will tell. Terry is posted and will be gone by end of summer. Elections are the end of this month so a whole new group of people to bug, or at least some new people and some older ones in newer positions. Will keep on it and ask Candy at Scouters Club for another update.
