LACO Sheriff’s Department Youth Group

For the second summer in a row, we were joined out at White’s by the LA County Sheriff’s department’s youth group.  The sheriffs brought out 15 kids, who participated in all our usual activities - hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, campfires - plus our Raft Regatta, which we do with our Camp Castaway campers.   The Raft Regatta was impressive, as usual, with the SS Maxwell (named for a little dog that wandered over while they were building their boat) competing against the Joe Mama (don’t ask!) and the Paradise.  The little dog must have brought good luck, because while it was a close race, the SS Maxwell came out on top (although the Paradise was close behind, and the Joe Mama won best name - that’s what happens when you let the kitchen staff decide!).

Overall, the staff loved visiting with the kids and the sheriffs.   Some of us are hoping to be able to pull some strings in the future and get out of a few tickets.  Ha!
