Memorable answers from Goshen Webelos camp

While at camp, scouts learn many things about the outdoors from the camp counselors. One of the best ways to teach is to ask questions, though sometimes the answers are a little strange.

Counselor: Why do we call this a box turtle?
Scout: Because it lives in a box.

Counselor: What tree do these leaves come from?
Scout1: Oregano
Scout2: Rosemary

Counselor: What do we use camp fires for?
Scout1: To keep warm.
Scout2: To cook our food.
Scout3: We may not want to do it in camp, but we can use it to light dynamite.
