“It covers the full year for us. This is our one single fundraiser for the year,” says Troop 1’s Scoutmaster Lee Rubel.

Parents and scouts got started early Saturday morning.

“It is 7:30 right now. We all arrived at 6:00. So our MO, the breakfast starts at 8:00. We bring everyone here at 6. We came last night and got most of it set up. Then we come int he morning and we do a dry run. Our dry run is we get the grills hot and we feed our crew,” said Assistant Scoutmaster David Christensen.

“The setup went pretty easy. It was a little hectic like it is every year leading such a large troop like we have,” added Assistant Scoutmaster Evan Rubel.
