I guess they weren’t prepared.

Just another grooming event. Boy Scouts have been anything but for several years now.

100 degrees?
Here in Texas we call that “summer”.
If you’re going to hold an event in July...

Is this for real??

I was at the national Boy Scout jamboree in 1989, at what used to be Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia. Temperatures reached over 100 a few days straight. We were sweating so bad it was stinging our eyes constantly. But we managed to walk... and wow did we walk... all over that place. They were careful about being prepared for nasty things like heat exhaustion, and one person died of a heart attack. But otherwise it was just one week and a half at Boy Scout camp along with 30,000+ other boys.

95 Fahrenheit? Really? The lack of preparation sounds like the biggest issue - shade and water, it sounds like - but 95? We’re having one of the mildest summers ever in the Pacific Northwest and I was processing firewood in that, no shade, no big deal. Management should have provided the little nippers with sufficient beer. It’s got electrolytes.

I guess a scout isn’t always prepared. Head for the Hilton.

I’m 63 years old. I don’t work outside. I spent 2.5 hours cutting grass this afternoon, mostly in direct sunlight. The recorded temperature was 100 degrees on the nose with about 45% humidity. My outside thermometer read 103 at one point. I did not die. In fact, I’m feeling pretty good.
