Paul Bunyan Day!

Paul Bunyan Day is like no other day at camp.  It starts out with a silent breakfast--a tradition taken from the lumberjack camps of the old northwoods--and finishes with some of the boys' own tall tales about the giant lumberjack and the mysteries of northern Minnesota.  

Here are some of the images from the day:
Zylon focuses on catching the egg

Tom demonstrates excellent form in the arrow toss

Charlie tries for a basket from the Paul Bunyan Swing
 
Will takes aim at the hatchet throw
 
Gordon demonstrates the proper throwing stance
 
With a running start, Miles launches Paul Bunyan's "toothpick" as far as he can.

And of course, what would any special activity day be without a little bit of bombardment?
Throw, Mac, throw!
