Spring Camporee 2007 | |
| Troop 55 took part in the Spring Camporee. Due to rain and flooding, it was moved from BlackHawk Park to Camp Ingawanis. The Organizing Districts did an awesome job setting it up. The scouts had a great time as did the scouters! The Webelos of Pack 55 joined us as well. | |

As soon as we arrived, it was time to find a camp site. |
