    Hammock display takes spaghetti dinner by storm.

    So Saturday I worked a spaghetti dinner for my Son’s Scout Troop. I was asked to come and do an outdoors camping display. So in classics Hammock Forum style I had to hammock the display up. So I laid out hammock forum cards and stickers and I even made a mini hammock setup complete with tree straps and toggles. It was a big hit with everyone. And the parents are all saying that the boys all want hammocks for Christmas. So I think that counts as a win. Check out the pic of the mini setup it was cool if I do say so myself.

    Sweet setup!!
    So I’m guessing all Scout Troops have spaghetti dinners? Mine did also! I loved selling tickets and serving dinners all night long!

    I was expecting a full-size hammock setup and was pleased to see the mini version. It reminded me of the mini tents I see at outdoor stores to advertise their big brother equivalent. I always wanted one of those!!
