Klecknersville Camporee May 29-31, 2009 - Could there possibly be any more mud? Rain during the week prior to this event made this an interesting camping event with all the mud and soggy fields. We had a great time participating in this event and earned a second place award in the Obstacle Course. Everyone successfully got real wet! A very special Thank You to the Klecknersville Rangers for sponsoring this event for the past 20 years! | ||
