Troop Nine Victorious

Six first places and the relay!

Ten Honor Ribbons

Best troop for the fourth year.

• Julian makes a new lifelong friend.
• Danny’s short water polo career ends well; on Friday he is discovered by Tony-instant electricity.
• Tom and Nick help Freddy’s Shooting Gallery end with a special treat.
• There is secret night action as well. On Thursday, Geoff appears at Mark’s cabin door just before midnight. On Friday, Tony arrives at Danny’s tent after lights out.
• Friday is graduation. Tom organizes the last day competitions. Julian presents his oversize portraits to Leonard and Sarge.
• Saturday: morning is the relay races, afternoon the awards, packing up to leave. During the last camp assembly, Leonard gets a special lesson in art appreciation from Geoff. The long ride home is busy…especially the hour after dark.
• Julian’s goal for camp remains unachieved-or does it? What are the prospects for the future? What has happened at home?
