On Saturday the Fairport Masonic Lodge graciously hosted our new scouts so they could get a solid start learning some of the skills they’ll find useful throughout their scouting and camping careers.
First the scouts learned a bit about how troops and patrols function.
Then they broke off to different activity centers such as knot tying after fusing cord.

Proper pocket-knife care and use was also a popular activity.
