At the pre-crack of dawn (5:30), most of the troop woke to the sound of gentle rain fall on our tents. It only lasted a couple of minutes but was enough to soak any left out chairs or clothes.
Walter, taking spectacular leadership, got the troop up. Unfortunately, it was 1 hr. 45 minutes before waiters need to be at the dining hall. But due to his diligence, we had most scouts ready for a morning meeting.
I keep calling out “most” scouts, this is because it wasn’t until we got to breakfast that we realized that someone was missing. It’s always the quite ones that get missed. Allan, don’t worry, we got him up and in time to eat quickly before the end of the meal.
