Eagle Watching at Starved Rock    

In addition to seeing Eagle perched in the trees and soaring over the river, the scouts had an interesting time chatting with a deckhand as a barge moved through the locks. It was a wet day but lots of fun!

Summer Camp 2023

Troop 923 will spend a week at Camp Blackhawk, Owasippe Scout Reservation, Twin Lake Michigan. Activities include a climbing wall, high and low rope course, rifle and shot gun, archery, day hikes and a 5 mile canoe trip. Non swimmers can learn how to swim, there will be instruction in canoeing and sailing and the proper use of a knife and axe. Scouts participate in campfires, cooking meals over an open fire, pitching tents and the proper way to raise and lower the American Flag. In addition there will be instruction in leather working and basketry and a host of other activities including a star hike at night. This is what happens when you go to camp rather than stand on street corners or go to the mall. A good time will be had by all. Thanks to all the Adults and Jr. Leaders who make this possible.
