The Girl Scouts made some great snacks for the campout. For dinner they had homemade camp stew and little smokes wrapped in biscuit dough. Pictured are Rachael Gimmeson, Anna Everson, Madison Shears, Josie Remacle and Ciara Chaffee. They are showing the dessert they made from biscuit dough filled with fresh apples off a tree, chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. They had these after their nighttime hike over by the park.
