On the first day of Dick Tracy Rock, there was a lot of rain and thunder, which caused us to not be able to canoe to the island(the first day is only allowed for those of a certain rank). However, we still set up camp near the dock, and when everyone finished setting up, the rain stopped. This let us go out on boats driven by other people who were kind enough to allow us to ride on them and give us an opportunity. With the boats, we could either go to Dick Tracy Rock and test gravity or ride around on the boats and do things such as tubing, wakeboarding, and skiing. Since the last Dick Tracy Rock Trip, the water level has increased, making the test of gravity closer to the water (the height got lowered).Also on the last night we do our customary PLC camfire with a lot of funny skits. While waiting for a boat, people could canoe at the dock or stay at base camp. The canoes were cleaned by putting them upside down on a rack, and we also made sure to leave no trace at base camp. 39 Scouts and a couple of parents were in attendance. The best part about this trip is the water sports and going on the boats. The troop had a lot of fun and we were able to connect with each other.
