Shoe Football November 3, 2010

After completing their group requirments for their merit badges and planning their next campout, (To be held December 10-11th at Lake Ray Roberts), they decided to have a game of shoe football. Everyone had a great time and no one got hurt. Note the covering of a few faces as the smell of a dozen, 12-13 year olds with their shoes off at the end of the day was not good. Eeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwww
