 Good day everyone.

There has been a date change for Camporee it is now May 18th, 19th and 20th.

Location: McIver State Park
Activities Theme: Top Shot
Event Theme: We are ready for youth suggestions on this (what will the look and
feel of the event be).

Cost: TBD

Top Shot Events will happen at King Fischer Campsite at Milo McIver park and at
Douglas Ridge Rifle Range.

We believe we will have a gateway competition this year.

There will a Patrol talent competition (winners will be a part of the Saturday
night campfire).

We are looking for volunteers to work on Camporee. Please Contact David
Blackburn if you are interested. So far we have people from 2 crews and 3
Troops involved.

To ALL Lewis and Clark Scouters,

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Merry Christmas and thanks for making 2011 a successful Scouting year. The District Leadership couldn't have done it without your continued support and involvement.
