Traditional Kellerskopf Hike

 The Troop gathered at the Scout hut in Wiesbaden and was getting ready for their traditional 10-mile hike to the Kellerskopf memorial. While the Scouts practiced map reading skills along the hike, some adults already drove up to the Kellerskopf and set up the lunch station for our hungry Scouts.
 This annual hike is a joint venture for Boyscouts and our bridging WEBELOS preparing them for life within a Scout troop and help them to connect to the Scouts for an easier transfer. The WEBELOS did pretty well on the hike! After eating lunch in the great outdoors the Scouts scrubbed the Boyscout memorial, our annual Service project, to remove all the green stains from the marble.
It's hard to gather them all around the memorial for a group shoot, but we finally got them. Great job and great hike Troop 107!
