At scout camp this summer, one of our boys decided he needed to puke...inside his sleeping bag. That was a mess like nothing I’d ever seen before. He spent most of the day in the infirmary sleeping off a fever. To his credit, he never once asked to go home even though he only lived 10 minutes away. I purposely never called his parents because he never asked me too.

I would say that the worst experience I ever had at summer camp was the year it rained the entire week. It was almost a constant rain from the time we got there on Sunday until we left Saturday morning.

Many of the activities were cancelled, the fish weren't biting, and we weren't able to complete our archery, astronomy, and rocketry merit badges.

It was quite depressing.
