Gilbert Ranch:
Gilbert Ranch, a Cub Scout camp, was a very enjoyable experience. Highlights include B.B. Guns, Archery, (Where I hit a fleur de lis Bullseye,) Geology, and Horseback Riding.
At the B.B. Range, We at first used actual B.B. Targets, then we started to use playing cards- apparently it's cheaper. Either way, I guess it's whatever is most cost effective in the end. A lot of the time, however, it looked like you never hit it. Honestly the only way I knew if my own target, actually anyone's target for that matter, is if the card flew out of the close pins.
The Archery Range and Horseback Riding, however were much more complicated. The horse's seemed to like each other and at the archery range the bows were short ranged until you pulled them completely back. Still, this is Boy Scout Camp, you have to make what you have last.
All in all, Gilbert Ranch is an experience I would recommend to anyone, any age. Though it has some downsides, what are you expecting, a five star hotel?
