The scouts were transported back to the Medieval Age as they made their way through a lazer maze to the music of Mission Impossible III. They each recieved a sword depending on their crew’s placement after a sword fight with inflatable swords, the quality of which differed from foam swords to much more realistic swords. They then went on to Edgewood Park, where each crew put their orienteering skills to use in order to find their shields.
At the wall crossing, the task was to use two planks to get across a “broken wall.” There was a very specific solution to the puzzle and many of the patrols succeeded with flying colors. It was wonderful seeing the varying levels of teamwork in the patrols.
At the sneak attack and semaphore event, the boys had to creep up on three unsuspecting knights and gather materials. From these materials, they created a tripod from which they could receive a coded message. Getting into the spirit of the event, knights and boys exchanged humorous banter.
And many more events, including a visit to a sword fighting school.
