Carson and the Jamboree

A few pictures of Carson from the National Scout Jamboree and their tour.
(Carson is usually the tall one in the back)

The next four pictures show the troop in Gettysburg learning about forming ranks, closing ranks as men fell in battle, and most importantly, about keeping the flag aloft and visible. Carson is the one on the far right. He is falling down in the fourth picture.

And the best for last!!
The title on this picture is "C3P0 and Some Guy"


I asked him what his favorite thing at the actual Jamboree was and he immediately replied SCUBA! When I asked him what his favorite thing to see on the tour was, he told me, without hesitation, the Sacred Grove. He had an awesome time going to the Jamboree. In his words, "It was life-changing."

It was worth every penny it cost to send him to hear those answers.

  1. I have been to all of those places and they are near and dear to my heart. I hope Carson had a real life-changing kind of experience back there.
