Maple leaf festival





Last weekend I helped the Boy Scouts with the annual Maple Leaf 
Festival in Baldwin City, Ks. Every year thirty to forty thousand people come there 
over the weekend. There are craft booths, bake sales, and fundraisers. Food
included roasted corn, turkey legs, funnel cakes, hot dogs, and bratwursts.


 I helped the Boy Scouts park cars, and pick up trash.
  There were tons of trash cans and dumpsters all over downtown
Baldwin City. Some other Boy Scouts and I went around and
replaced the filled trash bags with empty ones, and put the filled ones
in the dumpsters. Parking was 5 dollars at the Boy Scout cabin, and the school,
both of which the Boy scouts ran. We raised a ton of money which we (the Boy Scouts)
will use to go on camping trips. Later this week I will be going on a campout
and will be doing a pre-Civil War reenactment of the battle of Blackjack.
