Troop Scribe's Report - November 2006
By Eric Bergstrom
Orienteering
On Saturday October 28, 2006, Orienteering took place at Mar Vista Park. We split up with our patrols and put coordinates in our compasses. We also had to estimate how long the street is, how wide the basketball court is and how tall a brick wall at the park is. Orienteering started at eight o'clock in the morning and went until nine thirty.
For the last thirty minutes until ten o'clock, the scouts played football in the grass that became moist from the evenings’ dew. It was a lot of fun and organized very well thanks to Senior Patrol Leaders Kevin and Ryan Cohen and Adult Leader Mr. Chen.

The scouts used many tools like rakes, shovels, and hoes, which we liked a lot. There were lots of scouts and parents helping to get the work done. It turned out really good thanks to Steven. And thanks to the workers at the Madrona Marsh in Torrance that let Steven and Troop 764 help there.
