    I found the week long web II camp experience bizarre. The scout leaders were exceptionally enthusiastic, to their credit, but I thought the unending shouting and screaming of chants at all meal times was excessive and misguided. One of the songs about a torn up little froggy and blood on the ground was inappropriate (I couldn't possibly make up something this weird). The camp sites were flat, plentiful, easy to pitch a tent. The programs were mostly on time. The food very basic but plentiful. Activities were varied - BB guns, bow-arrow, fishing, boating, crafts. The boating pond is a little puddle but on the upside no one could possibly get in trouble without great effort. Many of the fishing poles did not work properly. You might consider bringing your own if it matters to you.

    Camp Lazarus is starting to look "run down". A little paint, TLC, etc. would go a long way in helping to improve the appearance of the buildings, outhouses, etc. Also, regular mowing of the grass and weeds would help when family camps take place in the Spring. There is a really nice store in the front of the camp where you can purchase scout items. There is also running water and flushing toilets in the camp store too.
