Troop 380 set off to Camp Bowman at Goshen Scout Reservation this morning. It was a nice sunny day for the troop to head off to camp. After shuffling the gear around in the bus a bit, all the scouts were loaded and were ready to head out. We will see them when they return next week with a number of merit badges and rank advancements completed.
