There were so many things to do while we were there. I wanted to earn honors, so did lots of others! It was a challenge to get into the classes, but I was able to earn some honors.
I want to tell you about the Model Railroading Honor. The first thing I had to do was take a test about model railroading and its terms. Then I learned how to make a model railroad. Cork is used as the railroad bed, then you have to stake it down so it won’t move. Next, you put the track down with 3 small nails. Then in between, each track you put small little pieces of fake gravel. After that, you use a solution of alcohol and water on the gravel and track. Then you put glue down and wait 24 hours, and then the track is done. I also worked on the scenery. I made a tent, and a tree.
You can earn this Pathfinder honor yourself! To learn go to these links:
