Unit Campout |
| Where: |
Griffith League Ranch - The ranch is the newest
Capitol Area Council property. It is almost 5000 acres in
size. This may be your only chance to see this beautiful property
for several months. The council is just beginning to determine how
the property will be developed and what the use guidelines will be.
Camping will be limited until this task is complete. So, come on out
to this event - you don't want to miss this opportunity! |
| When: |
January 29-30, 2000
Units arrive between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m. on Saturday
Leave by 11:00 a.m. Sunday |
| Program: |
The focus of this campout will be to come out
and have fun exploring the ranch. Each unit will be given a map with
an area of the ranch to explore. Scouts will be asked to locate the
significant natural features of their assigned area, as well as any
historical artifacts they may find. After dinner Saturday night
there will be a campfire program conducted by the Order of the
Arrow. There will be an inter-faith worship service Sunday morning
before we all head home. Each unit will receive a flyer in the mail
with more details and a registration form. It is very important that
you pre-register for this event. Also, watch for more details in Scout
Talk and attend your District Roundtable for the latest information as
plans for this event are finalized. |
| Camping: |
This event is designed around unit
camping. Units are responsible for bringing their own food, water,
and gear for the event. Port-a-potties will be provided. All
Scouts and leaders should bring their own canteens and a trail lunch for
Saturday. Plan to eat your lunch on the trail to your unit's
assigned area. |
| Cost: |
$5.00 to cover the cost of materials and
port-a-potties. |
