We arrive at night and cooking is done during the day by the scouts as its required for various scout ranks (NO hotdogs allowed BTW) and there is a cooking merit badge which is typically lots of fun. One requirement I love is Plan a menu for two straight days (six meals) of camping. Include the following:
A camp dinner with soup; meat, fish, poultry, or an appropriate substitute; two fresh vegetables; drink; and
dessert. All are to be properly prepared. When preparing your menu, follow the nutritional guidelines set by the food pyramid. (Cooked dessert by a scout what a wonderful thing to watch)
Most scouts have puzzled looks on that "nutritional" part, they hear things at school, but parents don't always practice them at home.
