Many scout troops start their weekly meetings again!

Pockit Knives

         Every good scout aught to have at least one.
It can be the most useful tool he/she can have! From opening
bottles and cans to starting fires, they can do just about anything!
         Their are several types the can be useful:
1. The single lock-blade
2. The leatherman style
3. The classic Swiss-army multi-tool
      
    In my opinion, the multi-tool is the best.
You might like a different kind for some reason, but, this knife
can do every thing from start fires to catch food!

      No matter what kind of knife you have, every scout and outdoors man should posses a good knife.

Of moody rainy campers. . .

As all outdoors men know, good weather is in no way essential for a good camping trip. In no small way does it affect the mood of your fellow campers! If the rain does make your trip miserable, it might mean that you have neglected to fallow the scout motto "be prepared!" Of course, sometimes you can be caught in a thunderstorm, and then its just down right scary!
