One of my fondest memories of being a Boy Scout was that we went on a number of field trips.  Some of these were to regular places where anyone can visit such as museums, nature trails and campsites.  But there were also some trips that we were able to go where you needed special privileges to visit, such as the tour that we had of the inside of a dam.  I vowed that I would give the kids I lead the same opportunities some day when I was a leader too.

That day has finally come, and I am enjoying my first year as a Boy Scout leader.  I really have wanted to give the youth the same memories that I had as a child, so we have been trying to line up some tours for them.

So far, the only company to respond has been Actuality Films, and we are going to get the opportunity to try our hands at being a film and video cameraman for the day while we create our own short feature film.  We will be doing this just two weeks from now and it promises to be a fun trip.

We are also planning the camping trips that we will be taking this year, and we should have that finalized soon.  It looks like this year should be full of adventure – I just hope that it is as good as I remember.
