McCoy is part of a Boy Scout Troop for 11 year olds. They meet once a week and work on merit badges. His troop was working on the Water Safety/Water Rescue and so they took an outing to the nearby Cluff Ponds. McCoy is an excellent swimmer thanks to swim team so that aspect of the rescue came easy for him but maneuvering canoes and small boats was a little trickier. McCoy learned the 5 ways to rescue someone when drowning. McCoy much preferred the swimming to the boating. He had fun jumping off the dock as well although the very best was all the snacks his leader brought!

I'm sure McCoy isn't about to bop a kid in the head, right?
This pedal boat wasn't working to well so they had to get oars and row.

McCoy had a great time and is one step closer to getting his Eagle rank for Boy Scouts of America.
