Some campers wish to specialize in advanced equitation. Others, after learning the elements of safety and handling their mounts, want nothing more to com- plete their happiness than the thrill of exploring miles of beautiful woodland and mountain trails with a good horse under them. Each camper is not only allowed, but encouraged to follow his own bent. We are proud of our record through the years, of the great number of boys who have come to Arrowhead as rank beginners, and who, long before they left, mounted their horses with that unmistakable look on their faces which said Gee, fellows, this is really it.', . ggi Ni .Qs- Xt ze 5.

Some organizations schedule the major part of the camper's time and activities, others, little if any. Arrowhead's course is in between, believing that some scheduling of instruction periods and regular follow up is desirable, if balanced with a gener- ous amount of free time for the camper. Each week day morning is divided into three activity instruction periods. You select your own activities, and then we set up your schedule, fitting you into groups of proper age, size and ability levels. No matter what your size and age, you may be an advanced swimmer, beginning rider, or vice versa. As indicated on the application, a camper chooses six activities, and each comes up every other morning, or three times a week. You too should have six activities for the mornings, unless you wish to double up on one or two Cexcept ridingj. That is all right, with parental approval, just so long as your mornings are planned intelligently and purposefully. There are of course exceptions to any morning schedule. Wle go on many camping trips, and on such occa- sions your schedule is set aside, to be resumed when you return to camp. This also applies when you are on a canoe trip or are at Lake Summit for sailing, aqua-planing and skiing. You may wish to shift from one activity to another occasionally. All right, if the change is reasonable and not too frequent. You should not, however, request to substitute another sport for, letls say swimming, if your parents have especially requested that you learn to sxvim. But you do not have to hang on to archery, for instance, all season just because you signed up for it, if you find that you would rather take up soft ball or something else. The whole'plan is for you to participate and receive regular instruction so Schedule that you will derive the keenest enjoyment from your sports by increasing your skill. It is not intended to tie you down to a daily routine. The afternoons are not scheduled, but are devoted to supervised free time. The activity centers are in operation, under counselor supervision, and you may have many choices of things to do every afternoon. VVe would like for you to experiment and to broaden your interests and skills. If you are a tennis bug and had tennis in the morning, you may play some more in the afternoon. Gr you may hike and explore with your gang, or sleep or pick blackberries for a pie, or write to your parents and girls. Vile want you to have a good time, to have time for accomplishing definite objec- tives, and time to devote to your pet schemes and hobbies, and time to relax and enjoy life. However, free time does not mean spending every afternoon doing nothing. Campers or parents who have questions in this respect should take it up with the camp director on an individual basis. There are many important events which take place during camp, not appearing on the activity check list and which will not be worked into your morning schedule sheet. These include the camping trips to Pisgah and other outpost spots, the canoe trips to Summit where you sail and ski, the county fair, minstrel, circus, and square dances with Glen Arden, the movies at camp once a week, council fires and all sorts of interesting evening programs, group games, birthday parties, hay rides, and treasure hunts. All these are planned on an informal basis with you and your varying interests in mind, and each of you is urged to join in the fun. Vile encourage campers to want to get somewhere, and in so doing have the most fun along the way. Look over the activity check list on the application blank. Check the 6 you prefer for a starter remembering that you may change later on as the situation merits. , , , , .. V V - t ' -V - - - -I f , ,...

The camper who enters or leaves at mid-season misses much of the best fun and basic values of camp- ing. This is particularly true for a boyis first camp experience. Full season campers make up the large majority of our enrollment. HALF SEASON Dates and Fees First Half- June 21 to -July 18, 1962 Second Half - July 19 to August 15, 1962 Include with application 5 50.00 Payable on or before june 1, 1962 240.00 3 TOTAL 5290.00 Recognizing the fact that many fine boys are eager to attend Arrowhead but are unable to enroll for full season, we will accept a limited number of campers for either the first or last half ,of the regular season. In case too many applications are received for one par- ticular short season, we may find it necessary to sug- gest the alternate- half ineorder to even up our enroll- ment throughout our entire camping season. No refunds for late arrivals or early withdrawals unless serious illness of a camper makes it necessary, fin which case one-half the unused portion may be refundedl homesickness is not applicable. Registration fee of 550.00 will be refunded if request is received on or before March 1, 1962. Arrowhead reserves the right to accept or reject any application at its own discretion, the application fee to be returned of course upon rejection. Arrowhead further reserves the right to dismiss any camper without refund, whose presence is con- sidered undesirable. HORSEBACK RIDING There is a charge of 525.00 for horseback riding for the regular eight-Week season, and 515.00 for the half or four-week period. Horses are engaged on the basis of registrations for that activity so no refunds will .be made after the season opens. Campers who wish to add horseback riding to their schedules after arrival may do so- if space is available in a class. LAUNDRY AND LINEN SERVICE Arrowhead furnishes blankets, sheets, towels and pillow cases to all campers, thereby eliminating the necessity of mothers supplying, marking, and packing them off to camp. Pillows are not available as part of the linen service. The combined linen service and laundry fee will be 525.00 for the full season, 515.00 for half season. There is no limit to the size bundle of wearing apparel a camper may send each week. MISCELLANEOUS The fee includes all trips and activities, other than horseback, plus an allotment for craft materials and ammunition for riflery practice. Campers may purchase additional craft supplies and ammunition if approved by parents. There is no charge for medical expense unless camper requires the service of a physician, pri- vate nurse, special prescriptions, or has to be hos- pitalized away from camp. Arrowhead maintains a well equipped infirmary with one or more registered nurses on duty at all times. . Arrowhead makes available a group health and accident insurance plan which will cover the cost of all medical expenses up to the limit of the policy. This coverage applies to camp infirmary patients and pays many claims which would not be paid by a family hospital insurance policy. This is optional and further details will be furnished to applicants before the begin- ning of the season. - ' CAMP BANK AND j CANTEEN Very little spending money is needed at camp. 525.00 for the eight weeks should be sufficient for mis- cellaneous expense and this allowance should be de- posited in the camp bank. The deposit in canteen should be increased if camper expects to buy, Arrow- head T-shirts. They cost 51.50 each and four are suggested. Arrowhead cannot be responsible for cur- rency in possession of campers. Arrowhead maintains a small canteen where stamps, film, toilet articles and other small items may be purchased. Expendi- tures exceeding the recommended allowance must be approved by parents. HOW TO GET TO ARROWHEAD Tuxedo is on U. S. highway 25, 30 miles south of Asheville, 8 miles south of Hendersonville. It is on main line of Southern Railway between Jacksonville and Cincinnati on the Spartanburg-Asheville division. If driving, ask directions in Tuxedo for the turn off. Camp is three miles off highway 25. Campers ar- riving by train will be met at Tuxedo. except those coming north through Atlanta, in which case they will be met at Greenville, S.
