Eagle Feather awarded to Soaring Eagle

Falling Leaf Moon Campout October 2010

Man, what a great weekend in Creekland. It was sad for me to leave all the fun and festivities. The weather certainly was a contributor to the great times the Creek tribe shared under the semi-full moon at KARS park, but it was the tribe members who made the weekend superb!

Let me thank all the Big Braves for making it a pleasure to be a part of this fine tribe. Friday afternoon, was a cooperative effort to get the camp set up in our new home for the weekend, on the southern fields of KARS behind the Ceramics house. By sharing KARS with the Scouts, we were at close quarters with our brethren tribes of the Canaveral nation, and banded together as one.

After a quick meal prepared by the Medicine Man, the Little Braves enjoyed some fun times around the campfire, and playing night football. The Big Braves enjoyed some great camaraderie fireside under the absolutely perfect weather conditions.

Saturday, was again an exercise in cooperation as a couple of our new dads stepped up to the plate to get breakfast rolling: thanks Mike, Shelby, and Freddie. Also, a special thanks to Dean for bringing in the groceries.

We began the display set up early, and it sure paid off, as the Little Braves of the finest tribe in the Nation outshone all the other tribes for their presentations.

The Big Chief was so impressed with the performance of all of our Little Braves that he made a special appearance to present the Orange ribbon to all of these helpful presenters.

The catapult was a great war game, and some friendly rivalry took place during the War Game phase of the day.

The evening wrapped up with a spectacular fire walk under the well illuminated moon, and light Banana River breezes. The highlight of the Council fire ceremony was the awarding of the 1st Eagle feather by two of our Little Braves. Congratulations to Soaring Eagle, and Running Fox for an exemplary achievement. Standing by for the coup count………….

An Eagle Feather awardee!!

A heartwarmingly patriotic meeting opener.

The October craft

Here is the October craft, which is not only functional, but will be a HUGE hit for the "new craft" judging at the campout.

Here are the Little Braves of the Creek tribe at our latest October meeting. The Fox family hosted a great meeting with a sweeeeeeet craft, and the boys earned some turquoise feathers doing their swim qual. A beautiful Florida day.
