A Home Run of Rain Drops!

We arrived at Classic Park, ready for a great game and a night of camping on the outfield. The clouds looked ominous, but as game time approached, we were all hoping we’d catch a break. The Cub Scouts paraded around the warning track and then we found our seats, grabbing some hot dogs along the way.

The game began, as did the rain. That was ok, because the boys got to race their Pinewood Derby cars! During the fourth inning, a bolt of lightning shut things down and out came the tarp. Some people left. Some people stayed. As the rain continued, it looked unlikely that the game would continue, let alone that we would get to camp! In the end, the weather relented, the game resumed and the Lake County Captains beat the Lugnuts!

We brought in our gear and set up our tents. Boys from different packs formed groups playing football and throwing frisbees. The hour grew late and at one in the morning, the lights were shut off and we went to bed.

The morning came early, but we were treated to a nice warm breakfast before we were on our way!

Go Captains!
