What does a Greased Watermelom taste like?

It's 3 on Monday afternoon and everyone is at the beach for Greasy Watermelon. It is kind of like water polo, played with a watermelon that has been coated with Crisco. After they get done playing they get to eat watermelon (no, they don't eat the greased one that has been handled by 40 scouts in lake water).
Breakfast was waffles and sausage.
This moring, the first year scouts went to leatherwork & basketry merit badge class and then off to First Class adventure to work on advancement. After Gmel (greasy watermelon) they will have First Class Aquatics. All the other Scout have four hours of merit badge classes.
Lunch was Ravioli.
After lunch they broke into two groups (the Cowboys and the Aliens). Half went to Ethics in Action (team building skills) and half to Super Troop (troop service projects). After an hour they switched places, and after another hour, they came here.
Dinner tonight will be meatballs and gravy and then after dinner they will have two hours of free time to go try out all the camp has to offer.
That's all for now from Many Point Scout Camp.
