June 2011 Update
Hnu-Ra-Con supported the Lodge on April 8th-10th at Section Con-ference. We had a large contingent of brothers go out to support the Lodge. We had numerous brothers participate in all the games and competitions. Even when we weren't participating we were still rooting our fellow broth-ers on. Hnu-Ra-Con is proud to be a Chapter in most spirited and the Best All Around Lodge. During May we had a Chapter Fellowship at Bellante’s Pizza in Kendall. A large number of Brothers came out and we had a great time. We've had three meetings since April. The first one was celebrating the Lodge's victory in the Best All Around Competition. The second was a discussing Summer Ordeal and cooking. The meeting in June was reflecting on Summer Ordeal and making plans for next year. Hnu-Ra-Con has been very active in the southern region Drum Team and provided the location for the Drum Meetings. I met with adults from the Chapter and my advisor Dave Kussner at a Drum Team Meeting so we could plan cooking at Summer Ordeal. During this Summer Ordeal, our Chapter brothers were kept very busy. As the service Chapter we cooked all meals for the Lodge. Based on the initial plans of camping at Camp Seminole our Chapter prepared a Seminole style menu for the weekend. We served hot breakfasts on both Saturday and Sunday that consisted of scrambled eggs, hominy, and homemade muffins. For lunch we served "Seminole burgers" that resembled empanadas and the response was thumbs up and satisfied stomachs everywhere. For dinner we had 'surf and turf'. While cooking steaks the lights went out on us, we spent a good 6 minutes looking for other sources of light and judging the steaks in the dim moonlight. Finally, after the lights turned on we started serving our steaks and alligator tail nuggets and hush puppies. If that was not enough we really 'wowed' the crowd after we brought out dessert, peach cobbler. Overall it was a great weekend with interesting Lodge election results. Congratulations to all new Lodge Officers.
