2010 National Scout Jamboree: To Gettysburg

After a 5 a.m. wake-up, Nathan Cadeux of Green Bay, Wis., tries to stay awake while he and fellow Boy Scouts from the Bay-Lakes Council contingent – on their way to the 2010 National Scout Jamboree – wait to load up their buses to depart Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, early Friday morning, July 23, 2010. This year's Jamboree celebrates 100 years of Scouting.


The Bay-Lakes Scouts watch an episode of "The Red Green Show" on bus television monitors near Chambersburg, Pa., Friday, July 23, 2010.

After arriving in Gettysburg, Pa., Bay-Lakes Scouts gather on a ridge overlooking the battlefield before distributing packed lunches.

For once, a line forms outside the men's restroom.

Young boys play with toy guns in front of a mural of the town of Gettysburg at the National Military Park Museum and Visitor Center in Gettysburg, Pa., Friday afternoon, July 23, 2010.
