Chickamaga Battlefield
Chickamaga Battlefield has been a tourist attraction for over 100 years. Just recently my boy scout troop on January 20th through the 22nd took a camping trip to the historic Chickamaga Battlefield. It was said that a few boys in our troop had seen the ghost of a lady in a wedding dress looking for her husband. It rained the whole first night (the 20th), and we had to cover up our gear when we set up the tents so that nothing got wet. The next day it only rained a little bit in the morning, but every thing was muddy. On the first breakfast our patrol had breakfast burritos, lunch we had BLTs, dinner was chili dogs, and for the second breakfast omelets. Later we hiked to the visitors center,watched a 30 minute movie on the Chattanooga Champain, looked at the different guns that people used in the Civil War, and looked at the gift shop. On our hike back to camp we passed a big dirt mound site. We went back to camp and then some of the boys decided to go back to the dirt site and play capture the flag. It was so muddy that the mud was 2" deep on our boots. Later that night me and two of my friends made bug juice, out of sugar ( Gatorade mix) and water. We put more sugar in it than we ever have before, and everybody's face was stained red because of it. The next day (Sunday) I lead the Chapel on Psalm 1, then we broke down camp and left.
