Some of you may be wondering why there is a post for Many Point 2008 already, when we don't leave for Many Point for another three weeks? Even though Troop 346 may not attend Many Point until the end of July, that doesn't mean there isn't stuff happening up there.
I just returned Saturday from my second trip to camp this year. I first went to Many Point for the work weekend at the end of May/beginning of June. There was a crew of volunteers up there performing all manner of tasks to get the camp ready for this season.
My task this year was to help with the expansion of the Voyager Trading Post. The rear wall was knocked out and the trading post is now about twice the size it was before. I will try to post some pictures later.
It was weird seeing the camp with out all of the people, before the signs had been put back out, and all the equipment was stacked floor to ceiling in any building spot available. The campsites with weeds and grass growing in them was very different than when we see it at the end of July. By then, several weeks of Boy Scouts have trampled the ground and the sites have been mowed.
I'll tell you more about my second trip up there later.
