Howdy Parents, Tonight we will meet at the picnic tables outside and work on Caste Iron Chef. Steve and I will each bring our outdoor stoves and cast iron skillets to teach the scouts how to setup a camp stove and review cooking safety. Then each scout will get a turn to make campfire donuts. If you can stay and help your scout that would be awesome. The scouts need to dress for the weather and wear something that it’s okay if cooking oil gets on it. If you haven’t picked up your pinewood derby car please go inside for them. Julia and Logan have t-shirts ready for pickup (inside). Kathy
