11 Year Old Scouts Camp Out

An overnight camp out was held at the Hafen Ranch for the 11-year old boy scouts from 9 troops in Virgin River Valley District with about 25 scouts camping for the night. These troops are sponsored by the Mesquite Nevada Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The scouts were working on the Tenderfoot rank on the Trail to Eagle by learning to set up tents and preparing supper on Friday night and breakfast on Sat. morning. Bishop Brian Wursten spoke at the campfire program explaining the steps on the trail to earning the rank of Eagle Scout. He explained that as they progressed they could attend week long summer camps and earn merit badges toward the 21 required to receive the rank of Eagle Scout. At the campfire program scouts from each unit entertained the others with skits. On Saturday morning they participated in a service project for the Hafen Ranch by picking up nails from the pallets.
