At Brazos bend we went on a long hike. On the hike we stopped at a nature center and saw snakes and baby alligators. We also saw an alligator in the water. In the night we went to the observatory and saw Saturn rings and lots of stars.

 Gianni was the top seller for popcorn sales this week.

At ILST Zach the ASPL did the first module mainly about SMART goals. He gave an understanding of what a smart goals are and scouts were able to apply them to troop goals. 

After Zach’s module we had a 15-minute break. 

Module 2 lead by Jacob Ortiz the ASPL was about communication and teamwork. We played games that  gave us a better understanding of what he was discussing. 

After the games we had pizza for lunch.

Jacob wrapped up with videos about preparing for patrol meetings and utilizing the edge method.

Giving the Eagle Charge was Troop 1922's 14th Eagle Scout, Benito Emanuel Colon Mercado and all present Eagle Scouts, adults and youth alike assembled to take the Eagle Promise given by Scoutmaster Carter.
The three Eagle Scouts earned the Rank just prior to and in the early months of the Covid Pandemic and did not get the opportunity for a Court of Honor to publicly recognize their achievement to Scouting's highest Rank.
As of this Ceremony there are 18 Eagle Scouts in Troop 1922's storied history since its founding in 2011; the Scoutmasters and Committee are excited to congratulate more Eagle Rank achievements in 2023!!!

Saturday morning when we got up it was cold and we made breakfast. Some had pancakes and bacon while others had bacon and eggs. Then we covered orienteering things like basic map reading, how to measure a tree with a small stick, and how to use a compass.

After lunch, there was an interpatrol competition to see who could pull a log up a hill without touching it with any body parts. The Biting Barracudas won by 6 seconds.

Next we did an orienteering course set up by the Scoutmasters and Logan Sileo. We used the skills we learned in the morning to navigate a mile plus long course. 

After dinner, we did a flag retirement where we learned we need to retire the flag cutting scissors as well.

Sunday morning we planned to do a Polar Bear Plunge in the lake but everyone chickened out. We were too cold.

Three Scouts worked very hard and completed their last requirements including Scoutmaster Conference for 1st Class. Way to go Owen Brawn, Dean Medgaarden, and John Medgaarden.
