| As
Troop 810, we could not have asked for a better turnout
for the Greater Cleveland Council Yard Charge. Free
doughnuts and coffee brought our day up to speed as we
headed out into the cool fall day. Our first yard was
(gratefully) completed and gave us a head start on the
"competition". We tied the last string on our
leaf bags around 12:30 and we headed out for our
complimentary KFC Lunch. Still exhilarated from the yard charge (yes, that's a joke), Troop 810 packed up our gear and headed out to Hemlock Creek in the Metroparks where we would stay for the night. I believe that all of the scouts would agree with me saying that we could have not picked a better spot to camp that day. The steep, rolling hills surrounded the rocky, and deep (just ask DJ) river. We set up camp and played around for the rest of the day; well, at least until dinnertime. Our perfectly cooked pot roast could not have tasted any better. We finished the night with hobo-pies and some fireside games; then we closed up camp. The next morning, we closed up camp after doing some games (for instance, running down the hills). We returned to the church parking lot at about 11:00 and most attended mass afterwards. Those who attended the Yard Charge were: Alex U., DJ, Jared, Kevin, Matt S., Nate, Philip, Ryan, Steven, Mr. Makowski, Mr. Mayher, Mr. Svihlik, and Mr. Thomas. Those who attended the Hemlock Creek Campout were: Alex U., David, DJ, Justin, Kevin, Kyle, Matt M., Matt S., Nate, Philip, Ryan, Steven, Mr. Makowski, Mr. Mayher, and Mr. Thomas. |

 Beautiful morning to break down camp and head on home. |
 Hey, where did everybody go? |
