Hello All. This is Paul Ernst, Scoutmaster for Troop 1034. I am so proud of our three Troop Scribes in maintaining their blogs. They have done a fantastic job. Each patrol walked around DC with an adult and a member of the senior patrol. Unfortunately, the Scribe could only blog about the patrol he was with and some contingent events. Sorry some the pictures only contain certain scouts, but these blogs reflect what is seen by the eyes of the Scribes.

We have had an awesome two days in DC. The kids have been great with no major behavior problems and plans have come together. Each troop has been holding nightly PLCs (Senior Patrol, Patrol Leaders, and Scoutmasters). Tonight's PLC went well, as we planned for arrival at Jamboree and all of the logistics that will be needed for setting up camp. Needless to say, we are all very excited about our first day at Jamboree.
