You get out and have some fun in the snow! Add a nice big snow-filled hill and you the makings of a great evening activity while on a weekend outing.<\/p>\n<p>The Scouts of Troop 68 spent a weekend at Camp Stearns in Central Minnesota during the last weekend of February. I had the video camera along so I thought it might be fun to record the guys having fun and catching some air as they went downhill sledding. Previous campers had made a few jumps on the hillside that the Scouts of Troop 68 liked to hit again and again, even if they got the wind knocked out of them.<\/p>\n<p>After an hour, the Scouts had had enough and decided to head back to the building. They had a lot of fun on the hill, and a lot of exercise walking back to the top. Thanks to this video, they will have a way to look back on five minutes of the excitement, and you have a chance to see the fun yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone interested in joining us next year?<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to leave a comment about this podcast.
