Scout Encampment- Tylers story

I went scout encampment in June.  It was 5 days long.  The first we set up camp, had dinner and had a meeting.  During the meeting a helicopter carrying a speaker came in.  It was so powerful that it knocked over tents. I also met my companion my first day (It was held kind of like a missionary experience.  There was a junior companion and a senior companion).  My companions name was Jacob Coy.  He was 15 years old.
Day 2- I got up and had breakfast.  Had a morning devotional. Then went canoeing. Then I came back and had lunch.  I had an afternoon devotional after that. I drove a excavator. It was fun.  It was bouncy too.  Then I ate dinner.  Then I had another devotional. Then we went back to camp and I played cards with the people in my ward.  Then we went to bed at 10 because that is our curfew.
Day 3- Breakfast then morning devotional.  Then I went geocaching.  I found a water poncho, a thing full of candy, and some money. After geocaching I had lunch and afternoon devotional. Then I just hung out with my companion.  Then dinner and a meeting.
Day 4- Same morning routine. I then went to wood carving.  I carved a fishy fishy fish. Then the lunch time routine. I went to play Frisbee golf.  Then I went to dinner and nighttime devotional.  After dinner there was this meeting that we also did there were stands I was on the stands.  I jumped off so I could land on the ground.  My companion caught me instead. 
Day 5- Morning routine.  I made a knife.  I had lunch.  Then packed up and headed home.  We didn't stay for the 6th day because it was just cleaning up.
