April 2000, Scout Show

Page 2

The scouts of Troop 163 (with some friends) built a tower at the scout show to demonstrate their skills at Pioneering.

The scouts participating were: Neil B, Ty F, Paul F (visitor), Grant K, Curtis M, Sean M, Thomas R, Conrad S, and Isaac S.

We also had a number of adults helping including: Al B (visitor), Bob B, Jody F, Walt H, Maria M, Troi M, Alan M, Dave R, and Don S.

Jody passed around a set of drawings from a web site illustrating several possible projects for the Scout Show. The scouts picked this Stilt Tower for construction.

Our previous scoutmaster (Don) was first up the tower. He jumped around, wiggled, and generally ensured that it was safe. This was a much more solid feeling tower than last year's tower.

All of our scouts had the opportunity to go up the rope ladder to see the view from the top.

From the top, you could see the entire floor of the scout show.

We then tied in a standard ladder to allow easy access to other kids (and a few adults) so that they could see the view.
