Patrol ChallengePatrols should be prepared from the moment they register as patrol - camp, sleep, cook and eat as a patrol. Testing skills and fun should be the goal for the patrol.

AttentionSuccess may depend on your patrol ability to be prepared.

Each unit is asked to support the Camporee by providing at least one volunteer to help staff the various events. If enough volunteers come forward the amount of time spent volunteering will likely be limited to only half a day on Saturday. Contact Kevin Knepp at

[email protected] to learn more about what events are available for volunteers and to submit volunteer names.

Sunday April 28 we will celebrate Earth Day – we will be planting seedings around camp.

Campsites: Campsites are included in the cost of the Camporee. Boy Scouts Troops will be assigned a campsite based on the size of unit. If your unit desires to spend the night in a Cabin we understand, but would like to encourage you to camp so that the scouts in your troop can get the most out of the Camporee. Cabin reservations must be made by contacting Karen Vance at 937-325-6449x102. **Money will not be refunded for units who book cabins online.

Check-in Troops will be able to bring their troop trailers in the Wednesday and Thursday before the Camporee. Troops will be notified of their campsite assignment the week prior to the Camporee. Parking will be at a premium. It is HIGHLY ENCOURAGED to carpool and limit the number of vehicles required for transportation this weekend. Check in at the Turner Building front entrance Friday from 6 to 9pm. Saturday late check in from 7:30-8:30 am will be at the Information Booth located near the dining hall. Lost and Found will be at the Information Booth throughout the Camporee.

To ALL Adult Leaders: We need your participation and help to truly make this a great 2018 Spring Camporee !! All units will be required to provide a volunteer to assist with an event. Yes, still need assistance, not a typo or repeating myself!

Uniforms Scouts and leaders are expected to appear at Saturday’s opening flag ceremony and Saturday evening’s campfire in full Scouting uniform.

SAFE HAVEN

We know that different troops handle their programs in different ways. However, when you’re at the Council Camporee, we all must live close together under some common rules. To make this a pleasant experience for everyone, we’ve listed the Camporee Safe Haven Rules. Please take some time prior to arriving at the Camporee to have your Senior Patrol Leader review these with your Scouts: 1. The Camporee follows all points found in The Guide To Safe Scouting. Discipline is to be handled by unit leaders in charge. If a troop has any questions about this, please ask the Camporee Chairman. 2. An atmosphere of respect and consideration for others needs to be promoted and exemplified by all adult and junior leaders. 3. All language used at the Camporee must follow the 11th and 12th Points of the Scout Law. 4. Scouts are never to enter anyone else’s campsite without being invited. 5. Scouts are not allowed to leave their campsites after the designated “in camp” time each night, except for kybo trips. Adults and Scouts must adhere to the Lights Out and All Quiet times each evening. This consideration for others is especially important when troops are camped close to each other as they are here. Scouts that roam the area at night or are in “ninja” clothing will be escorted back to their Scout Master by the Camporee Chairman. 6. We ask that no adult or Scout arise before 7:00 a.m., but we know that’s not always possible. Adults and Scouts arising before 7:00 a.m. in the mornings must talk in whispers, not make any noise that will disrupt neighbors, and stay in their own campsite except for kybo trips. 7. Competition must always be conducted with Scout Spirit. 8. Inappropriate troop or patrol yells should not be used at any time during the Camporee . The Camporee Chairman will notify a Scoutmaster if this is in question with his/her unit. 9. Nothing is to be thrown while at the Camporee, including fir cones, rocks, sticks, or anything else, unless in an event approved by the Camporee staff. 10. The uniform makes the Boy Scout troop visible as a force for good and creates a positive youth image in the community. Boy Scouting is an action program, and wearing the uniform is an action that shows each Boy Scout’s commitment to the aims and purposes of Scouting. The uniform gives the Boy Scout identity in a world brotherhood of youth who believe in the same ideals. The uniform is practical attire for Boy Scout activities and provides a way for Boy Scouts to wear the badges that show what they have accomplished. 11. Campfire etiquette calls for silence upon entering the campfire bowl until prompted otherwise by the Master of Ceremonies, and be quiet upon leaving. Adult leaders should be interspersed among their troops to maintain discipline. Flashlights must not be used during the campfire. Please confiscate your Scouts’ flashlights or laser pointers if they are being used during the campfire, then return them afterward. Make sure that your Scouts are practiced in raising their hands in the silent signal for “attention!” 12. Since the purpose of the Camporee is not to entertain, we expect troops to manage their free time. Please ensure that free time activities are positive contributions to the weekend program. 13. Webelos Scouts will be visiting and/or camping overnight at a Webelos event at the same time. We ask all adults and all Scouts to make this a positive experience for the Webelos. What they see here will be a “picture” of Scouting in their minds. Will they want to become a Scout after experiencing the Camporee. We hope so!

In no cases should Scouts be allowed to search for others alone.

Camping Unit leaders are expected to inspect their campsite. They will look for safety concerns such as: improper storage of fuels, leaking, loose, or improper fuel fittings, tripping and/or climbing hazards, proper control of axe yards and proper storage and use of axe yard tools, proper use of grease pits, proper storage of foods and cleanliness.

Water: Water will be available at camp

Garbage and Trash: You must haul out all garbage and trash from your unit when you leave the Spring Camporee . Bring plastic bags and or garbage cans. Leave no garbage or trash (including food scraps) on the ground at the Camporee site.

Campsite Inspections: Campsites will not be inspected this year. Remember a clean and neat campsite provides a safe and happy campout.

Health and Safety An EMS will be on duty at the 1st Aid Lodge during the Camporee. All unit leaders should ensure they have up-to-date health forms for all individuals attending the Camporee. The camp’s “Emergency Procedures” will be adhered to. These will be made available via the internet and upon check in. Only camp staff and medical vehicles will be permitted driving privileges during the weekend of the Camporee. No other vehicles other than small personal golf cart/utility type handicap vehicles will be permitted. There will not be handicap vehicles available from the camp for loan. Individuals will need to provide their own small golf cart/utility type handicap vehicle if their individual needs require it.

Tobacco Policy: In accordance with BSA policy, we strongly discourage the use of all tobacco products. Tecumseh Council discourages smoking on all camp properties. Smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco products is not permitted by anyone under the age of 18. Smoking and the use of any tobacco product, (to include but not limited to: electronic cigarettes, dip, or chew) must be out of view of any youth (Camp Birch will be crowed during the camporee. It will be difficult to smoke out of view, Camporee staff ask that smoking and use of tobacco take place in the parking lot). Smoking in any building, tent or within 50 feet of the door of one of these structures, is prohibited by law. Please dispose of all litter in a sanitary manner. In accordance with BSA policy, no alcohol or drugs are allowed on Tecumseh Council property.

Check-Out Procedures: Please ensure your campsite is clean. Tear down your campsite, remove all trash and debris, disassemble any pioneering projects, and patrol your site. Self inspect your campsite and send word to HQ that your campsite is ready. Once everything is completed, your Troop is free to go but have your Scoutmaster stop by the McMillan to turn in a Thorns and Roses and a suggested them for next years event.

Patrol events – Subject to updates and changes – Be Prepared!

1. TALLEST FLAG POLE- Patrols will provide twine, and their own spars and stakes, to lash together poles to create the tallest patrol flag. The winning patrol will have the tallest flag pole to remain standing for one minute without human intervention. Time limit = 20 minutes.

2. FIRST AID – Provide aid as need3. BLIND TENT – Build a tent blindfolded with instructions by patrol leader4. SIGNALING – Semaphore message. Send and receive a message using

semaphore flags 5. KIM’S GAME. The patrol has 1 minute to test their memory skills with

this classic scout game! 6. SIX KNOT RELAY: - Six Scout team; judged on time taken to tie knots

correctly. In turn, each Scout runs 30 feet, ties a knot, and returns to tag off the next Scout. The six knots are the reef, bowline, sheet bend, clove hitch, round turn and two half hitches, and sheep shank

7. COMPASS GAME: There are 4 colored pebbles representing 4 locations set out in distances from the Starting Flag at set bearings. The Patrol is given a compass. If the patrol has a compass additional points will be awarded. They can find the bearings and distances which they need to use on their Patrol scorecard. The bearings are: 85° for 30ft, 170° for 45ft, 65° for 60ft, 125° for 75ft. - Patrol members need to estimate their pace length using the two cones set 10 feet apart. Then the Patrol follows the first bearing and distance (using their pace length which they have worked out), marking the location with a flag. The Activity Judge measures the distance between the Patrol's flag and the actual location. The distance is noted on the Activity Judge's scoresheet and the flag is removed. This is then repeated for the other three locations. If the Patrol takes 30 minutes, end the attempt

8. FIRE BUILDING: Each patrol will be given two stick matches and directed to a place where there are two poles driven into the ground. There will be two strings tied between the poles, one at 8 inches, the other at 12 inches off of the ground. Each patrol can use any kindling found on the ground in the immediate area, NO FIRE STARTERS WILL BE ALLOWED AT ALL. This is to be a test of proper fire building, not of how much dryer lint you can pile in. Scouts are encouraged to bring something to strike the matches with. The fire lay cannot go above the lower string at any point or the patrol is disqualified. Once the lower string has been burned through, no additional materials may be placed on the fire. This encourages proper fire building, rather than just putting on tons of leaves

Scouts will discuss what Engineers must think about in planning the building of a bridge using vocabulary words like tension and compression. Scouts will then become civil engineers and experience the design and assembly of a bridge that they can travel across. (non scored)

13. EDP – is a design challenge to build a rescue litter and rescue and potato/bean bag stranded in the mountain (table top) using straws, popsicle sticks, pipe cleaners, foil, etc. .

14. GPS – This demo begins with a discussion on navigation and reviews cardinal directions, different kinds of maps, and Latitude and Longitude lines. Scouts will also discuss magnetism as it relates to compasses and the Earth’s magnetic field. There is a brief introduction to satellites and trilateration.
