Turkey Fry Fundraiser

The scouts that showed up included me, Jordan R., Noah, Leo, Matthew, Josh L., and Chris. We arrived at 6:00 a.m. on Saturday to start setting up. We brought all the equipment outside. Unfortunately, there was a wind problem but Mr. Steve solved that by having us put tables in front of the fryers. We had a delicious breakfast cooked for us, including sausage biscuits, doughnuts, and coffee. The actual frying started around 7:00 or 7:30. In between shifts we went and played soccer in the park. Jordan and I were able to teach the younger scouts how to prepare turkeys and wrap the cooked ones, so next year they will be able to help others with that. We finished up around noon and cleaned up. We taste tested one of our turkeys for lunch and I have to say, it was delicious. Even though we didn’t sell as many turkeys as we expected, it was a good learning experience for the younger scouts and I think it’s safe to say that we all had a pretty good time.
