Troop 170 - Mt. Holly Springs, PA
What a week we had! The weather was incredible so we got a lot of sailing, snorkeling, beaching, and island exploring in to the MAX! Out on Fowle Cay reef, which is an ocean reef, this troop snorkeled for about 3 hours! Love it! And they came together as one of the best sailing crews we have ever had on board. They did it up and they did it right! We even got a full moon sail in with the guitars playing, everyone singing, and a few crazy dancers! It was such a pleasure to have every one of you on board. Thank you ALL!

They didn't really like the taste of the grapes on the grape tree 
They LOVED Miss Lola's cinnamon buns. Ooooohh yummy!
