Coaching Caleb in Flag Football

As the kids grew up, coaching them was one of my special privileges.  I mostly coached soccer and baseball, and for a couple season basketball.  Then there was on year I coached Caleb in flag football with California Youth Sports.  This was really a pleasure.  I must admit I can't remember the names of the kids, or the other coaches, but we had fun, and our team was really good.  There was one other team that was also very good, and man did we have a good game.  It went back and forth, and to be honest I don't remember who won.  I remember one play that we did a quick pass to Caleb, and someone almost got his flag behind the line of scrimmage, but he made it around the corner, and then the entire field was open to him.  It was exciting.  I don't know if we have any pictures, but I have my t-shirt, which is getting old and ready of the DI, so I had Miranda take a picture of it. We played at Blackford High School, and practiced at Maywood Park.  The players came from a much broader area than usual sports.  It was like thee first year of the league.

Scoutmaster: Camp High Sierra 2001


 I should say the best I can tell this is 2001, Canp High Sierra.  I think I am Scoutmaster with Ken Danielson and Cary Morgan as assistants.  However the first year I went to camp I was assistant to Stan Dye as Scoutmaster.  We are at TeMoak Campsite, which was always our favorite and the traditional site for troop 456.  In the picture below, taken in front of TeMoak Rock, Kody Macaulay, MarkWardle, Matt Skowbo, David Danielson, Tyler Gardner, Jeremy Wardle, Tyler Morgan, Adam Roberts, Struk, Ian Dalton and Lynn Hansen.  My favorite time at camp where the troop flag ceremonies.  Everyone had a turn.

 Ken Danielson was our Deacon's Quorum adviser.  He had a knack for turning any conversation into a spiritual lesson. He had a great influence for good and getting the boys to think of God's role in their lives.

 Activities included canoeing, swimming, archery, climbing, shooting, camp-wide service, merit badges, polar bear etc.  Older scouts had more high adventure activities and less merit badges.  There was also a forge and a woodsman area.
