Scouts Brave Cold, Enjoy Horseback Riding at Marmon Valley

Hearty Scouts from Troop 185 Bundle Up, Saddle up

It was  little chilly -  OK, make that a LOT chilly - with Friday night temps dipping into the low teens.

Regardless, scouts from Troop 185 crawled out of their warm sleeping bags to enjoy horseback riding and wall climbing at Marmon Valley Farms in Bellfountaine.    They even got a special lesson from the emergency preparedness merit badge counselor.
