Troop 389 at Scout Show with 1st place ribbonCongratulations to Boy Scout Troop 389, chartered by Atlantic Christian School, for taking first place at the annual Scout Show for their creative and educational display focused on the theme of sustainability. Dozens of Cub Packs and Boy Scout Troops from across South Jersey participated in the Scout Show, which was held on Saturday, February 4 at the Hamilton Mall. For their winning exhibit, the Scouts in ACS Troop 389 built a display table out of bamboo, an eco-friendly wood and demonstrated how lightweight solar panels can be used outdoors on camping trips in reduce the use of batteries. The scout exhibit also included a home-made hot water heater system that showed how to take the heat from a campfire and recycle it to create hot water in a container for use at a campsite.  The scouts pictured above at their exhibit are: Jacob Campsmith, Kyler Campsmith, ACS 6th grader Hunter Jorgenson, and John Wurzer.  Troop 389, which meets Monday nights at ACS, is open to ACS and non-ACS students and is led by Scoutmaster Peter Karabashian and Assistant Scoutmaster Mike Jorgenson.
