What could be better than getting together at camp with some Scouting buddies for a few hours, telling jokes and war stories, and playing with your favorite hand tools? The Camp Snyder fixer-uppers were at it again in November, this time patching up some worn-out floorboards on the south porch of Carroll’s Cottage. There’s nothing quite like the creak of old nails being pulled, the whine of a circular saw, and the satisfying feel of a power driver sinking a screw through a board deep into a joist below.
We have Sawdust Saturdays at Camp Snyder twice a month. Next up: December 5 and 19, January 9 and 23. Email Dan Kurtenbach at cwbs.volunteers@gmail.com for more information.
