Timon, when arriving at camp, was a non-swimmer. Our "Leader-Project" for the week, Teach this scout to swim! |
| (Day 3) Now we learn to over come our fear of "Deep Water". Buffy works with Timon in deeper water, even going over his head. This will be a big step, due to the fact of his fear of the water. To give a break, and back to shallow water, he starts improving on his backstroke. |

One day ahead of schedule, Timon is off to try the "Swimmers" test. 100 yards! Thanks to the "staff", they cleared the beach, and the test was on! During the test, Timon was ready to call it quits, but due to cheers from the beach, and Moonie right beside him, he would complete the Swim test, and complete our Troop as a "100% Swimmers Troop". |
| Congratulations to "Timon"! He's now a "swimmer". Of all the "scouts" who came to Camp Parsons from our Troop, Timon, probably gained the most. He learned to "Trust" our leaders, Overcome his fear of water, and learned to Swim! After coming up to shore after the test, Buffy said, "I'm so proud of you!" And his response was..."I'm proud of me too!" |
