Sunday is reorganization day at Kingswood.  I’ll paste the schedule below.  Keep scrolling to the four photos just taken this very minute.  You can witness our “continental breakfast” going on, with mostly the young boys in early attendance.  The exception is the older boys making sandwiches and packing gear for the three-day hike in the northern extremities of the White Mountain National Forest.  It has been quite some time since we have done Mt. Cabot, for example, and the group is very excited about the pioneering aspects of this trek.
