Boy Scout Summer Camp Information For 2008

Chief Logan Reservation     Camp Falling Rock     Oyo High Adventures

Welcome

Somewhere, someplace, sometime in the maze of schedules, the rush of activity, the intensity of excitement, the attention to duty, come moments of deep value and lasting impressions in the camping experience.  No one can guarantee these values, no one can establish them in a program schedule, and no one can assess the results.  We, as camp staff and as Scout Leaders, can establish a tone within the program or create and suggest circumstances that may result in depth of meaning and understanding to boys.  In this we deal in faith and extreme hopefulness.

When, before the break of day, a group of boys and their adult leaders climb to the summit of a lofty hill and from there observe the panorama of the valley below, when they gaze in wonder at the first streaks of dawn signifying the birth of a new day, then there can come to each one a lasting spiritual joy never before experienced.  God is there!  A new creation is taking place.

When the adult leader and his small group sit quietly in the waning shadows of the evening and the leaders speak softly, recounting the blessings of the day and the hopes and plans of the morrow, then there can come a depth of spiritual understanding for each one present.

When, in the clamor and excitement of daily activities, one boy in discussion with another draws himself erect and makes the Scout sign and says “Scout’s honor” – here may be the beginning of a practice that demands that a man’s word should be as good as his bond.

You can expect only the best from our dedicated camp staff in providing these programs.  It is our sincere desire to assist you in providing your unit the best possible program while at camp.  We are looking forward to being a part of your camping experience this summer.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call on us.

In the Spirit of Camping,
