"Cooks are not found wandering inthe woods. Nor do Scouts fry an egg on the first try. Guide them, teachthem, but don't do everything for them."
District Troops have families from allover. They bring knowledge andexperiences from all over the world. And along the way, a few good recipes. Friends and relativesagree that you may have these secret recipes only on one condition. That you add your own and pass on the total to others.

Cooking and eating are an adventure. There is just something about camp cooking that is special.Cooking outdoors requires a different set of rules and equipment. Take time to plan someactivities that will include food preparation, whether it is brought in a paper sack or food that will be prepared by the boys. Cooking is a skill and cooking outdoors with charcoal, wood or a buddy burner will take some skill. Take time to talk about what you plan to cook, discuss safety and practice fire building.
