BELGRADE — More than 100 Scouts and leaders from across southern and western Maine attended the Fall Camporee at Camp Bomazeen the weekend of Oct. 18-20.

Scouts stayed in patrols and traveled around camp competing in some traditional Scout camp activities, such as outdoor cooking and BB gun shooting, and also at activity stations designed to fit with the theme of the camporee: “Got Game?”

One station was Scout Jeopardy; the next was an epic-size game of Battleship, and then it was off to Deal or No Deal.

Eric Handley of Sidney ran the Battleship game. Two picnic tables were separated by a blue tarp. Scouts on both sides of the tarp had a large board with cups representing their battleships.

Scouts who stayed overnight with their Troop also took part in a Gateway building competition and the Next Level Chef Competition. There was also a costume competition.
