Jamboree Day 3 - Wednesday, July 28

Woke up at 5:00. Cereal and bananas for breakfast. In class A uniforms and off to the arena show a bit after 7:00. Got to the arena at 9:10. Arena show was quite good but hot. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates gave a very good speech sharing some of his scouting experience. Other speakers were the Chief Scout Executive, Order of the Arrow Chief and Miss America who also sang. Also saw WWE stars, parachuters and a great drill team. Lots of water was handed out. The troop was dismissed after the show and the boys gave the scoutmasters their class A uniforms to return to camp. Grabbed lunch on the way back to camp. Went to escort back to camp two scouts from the subcamp 11 medical tent. Rode the bus back then handed off the boys to Scoutmaster Rob at the second bus stop. Walked back to camp stopping to shoot clay pigeons with a shotgun. Hit the first four but missed the last one. Jambalaya dinner. Relaxed at camp after dinner.
