The over nighter did not quite go according to schedule but that is not all that important. The key to the activity is that the Young Men enjoyed themselves and got something out of it. I believe we had some really good activities. Those participating did a fantastic job. The lads operated well even with as little as 4 hours sleep. A few photos were taken and I will put some up as I get them collated.
