Eight troops from all over Hays County competed against each other in areas of fire building, orienteering, Scout trivia, First Aid, knots, relay races, building a tent blindfolded, and building a structure with lashings. Troop 967, chartered by the Buda United Methodist Church, took home the coveted Camporee trophy. Scouts enjoyed a campfire with songs and skits following the competition.
