Anybody want to share any good stories, Practical jokes, pranks or otherwise good natured misbehavior?
My favorite was when we stole the clapper out of the bell and got to sleep late the next day. This was at the old camp.
Me and some buddies, got up in the middle of the night after carefully planning the prank. We "borrowed" tools from the maintenance area and snuck out with flashlights and wrenches. It was a huge success. I forget exactly what Bill Bailey did to get everyone up but I seem to recall him walking around with some object like a pot banging on it to wake everyone up.

How about the "escaped convict" hoax? do they still have camp hoaxes?

I remember the escaped convict hoax. That was a good one. I don't know if they are doing that stuff anymore. I don't think the escaped convict would be a good one in modern times. At least not since Eric Rudolf.

LOL - no more escaped convicts, then! There was also the flu shot hoax. I missed the UFO landing by a year.

Did you catch Bill Hydrick's bio page (came up when I did an Arrowhead search). Tried to e-mail him, but got the proverbial bounce-back. Everyone has fallen off the edge of the earth.

You stay in touch with anyone from Camp days?
