Scouterhorn at Arlington Archdiocese Campout

2022-05-07

The Archdiocese of Arlington hosted a family campout the weekend of 7 May. The Scouterhorn was used at that campout. Thanks to dedicated volunteers, we had no incidents, though in the future, we need to bring the Scouterhorn down when weather conditions could lead to hypothermia or hyperthermia. Though there was no thunder (lightning) or high winds, very few participants were prepared for the weather. Better not to have a "attractive nuisance" than enable people to get cold and wet. What would you do if in this situation? Please send email to Tony Waisanen at NCAC.COPE@gmail.com with your opinion.

6	Made it ALL the way to the top (and then some). Specks in the picture are water drops on the lens of my iPhone. 05/07/2022 03:10 PM 2.99MB	The video of the return.
