For the second year in a row, Troop 45 was very happy to participate in this Invitation Only event at Kings Point.  In spite of the busy Troop Schedule, we were one of the largest Troops at the event bringing 26 Scouts and 7 Leaders to Kings Point the weekend of April 27-29. During the weekend the Scouts participated in many of the Camporee activities as well as Troop activities like building a Gateway, cooking meals, and rank requirements. As was the case last year, many of our newest Scouts had their first Troop camping experience this weekend.
