I know at the summer camp my troop usually went to, you usually couldn't really see or necessarily even hear what was going on in another patrol's area, even though they were technically all part of the same site. But at one state park we camped at a few times, we could pretty much see and hear everything that was going on in the adjacent group sites. permalink fedilink source parent
