Scout Troop 5 Spends Weekend Kayaking and Exploring Outdoors on the Ouachita River

Scout Troop 5 Spends Weekend Kayaking and Exploring Outdoors on the Ouachita River
Hope's Scout Troop 5 camped on the Ouachita River near Mount Ida, Arkansas. Darin, Bonita and Jordan Laughard hosted the youth and adult leaders on their riverfront property. The weekend was full of games, cooking, eating, swimming and fellowship highlighted by a 7 mile trip kayaking down the Ouachita River.  This trip has become very popular and there are more Scouts that want to kayak than there are kayaks available. Troop 5 is seeking used kayaks and paddles to purchase or for donations. Pictured are: (Left to Right) Kody O'Brien, Amanda Hurd, Emma Wright, Junior Assistant Scoutmaster; Kaden O'Brien, Dakota Greer, Brian Matchett, Harper McMahan, Penelope Tucker, Lucas Matchett, Karen Smith, Scoutmaster; Makenzi Golden, Senior Patrol Leader; Jordan Laughard.
