Iron Chef Update and News about West Baldy Backpacking Trip this Weekend

Hello Troop 648

What fun last night, our first ‘Iron Chef: Dutch Oven’ cook off! The scouts split into three groups, two cooked meals using the dutch oven skills they learned this month and the third group was our own celebrity panel of judges.

In the end, no one was ‘Chopped’ and both received great reviews and helpful critique. I skipped dinner so I could taste their creations and kudos to both for a job well done! Some pictures are below.

Let the Double Dutch Competition begin!

Can it get any better than pizza and camping? The Leprechauns took home the Silver Spatula with their pizza creation. Yeah, it was that good!

West Baldy Update
This weekend is the West Baldy backpacking trip. Meet at the church at 3:00 pm. Please bring $25 for gas, plus money for dinner Friday night and lunch on Sunday. We should be home mid-afternoon on Sunday.
The creek is flowing, so we will have access to water. Bring your own food for the trip.
Temps could get into the 30s at night, so dress warm and will be in the high 60s or even 70s during the day- this will be an awesome trip so please be sure to join us!
Don’t forget a permission slip. These can be found on the troop website.
Have a great week everyone!
