Boy Scout Troop 482 Camped along with Cub Scout Pack 482 during their Arrow of Light Weekend 5-20 thru 5-22 2011 at Camp Agawam located along Slippery Rock Creek in Lawrence County, PA. This turned out to be a great weekend with beautiful weather and memorable events. Saturday morning the Troop and Pack worked on service projects for the camp. Troop 482 stained the exterior siding of a new latrine while Pack 482 cleared and cleaned up some of the camp's hiking trails.
Saturday afternoon the boys enjoyed fishing in the lake, hiking, and a game of capture the flag. The Boy Scouts prepared a Dutch Oven beef stew over the campfire coals which was enjoyed by all for Saturday supper. After supper the highlight of the weekend was the Arrow of Light Ceremony where one Webelos Scout crossed over from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts. The ceremony was held in Camp Agawam’s beautiful amphitheater which is framed on three sides by massive natural rock formations with the Slippery Rock Creek flowing nearby. After the Cubs called to Akela, a flaming arrow flew from the trees to ignite the bonfire for the ceremony. What a memorable experience! Congratulations to our newest Boy Scout and Welcome to the Troop!
