Our diverse and far rang- ing camping expeditions found each group in a different and exciting area. Donit ever sell the American boy short! The spirit of adventure and adaptability to rough environment still is part of our make up. Every boy in camp had the oppor- tunity to pitch a ten-t, build a Hre, cook, eat raw or burned food, clean a messkit, test his endurance on a hike, avoidf?J poison ivy, sleep in his clothes, listen to a scarry ghost story, count the billion stars at night . . . and back at camp, spend hours removing the accumulated dirt! Lower camp tripping again was led by our rugged elder statesman, that premier cook of home fries the morning after, 'tElderberry Jack T urek. The Bluejays had their introduction to the sleep- ing out at the Pine Point camp site, a dense hemlock forest along the lake not far from the saildock. Every little man had his chores-tent pitching, wood gathering and clean up, but if SGCIUS WC Spent most of our time eating Jack's deliCi0US cooking. Campfire and story time at night WSIS great and when we crawled into our sleeping bags, the bed of pine needles felt like a down mattressC7J- We were also invited to the Sparrow fish-fry one night and we had a glimpse of the fun that waits for us next year. We learned our lessons well, and all of us are ready for 1968's adventures away from camp. The Sparrows, our eight year old boys, braved the wilds of Mowhawk Forest, again with Jack blazing the way. This was their first experience away from camp and Jack tells us they were the most rugged Sparrow group ever. One thing cer- tain- they ate more food than any group of 8 year old boys ever did! The Robins camped in a different, far more rugged area of Mowhawk Forest. Led by Big Jim Ranchino, our super woodsman, the boys enjoyed a never-to-be-forgotten experience. The boys did virtually all of their own chores attendant to camp- ing out. The highlight was a difficult seven mile hike along the Mattatuck and Appalachian Trails. Along every step of the way, Jim patiently taught the boys woodcraft. This training is most important for the trips to come. The Falcons, on their first three day camp out ever explored the wilds of Pittsfield State Forest in Western Massachusetts. Now for the first time, the boys put to a test the woodsmanship they had ,E , 1 ,,, W--,:-...-. gf:--, lif----2:f':4.lg-1-1'I1-1-,:f..: t.'::.'.zEf?- 1:.:-..-.ff--- -g-----'--'W , - - H , W , in - . 1---rat-ef--:::::rfr::-'-'P..::r:E-23:1-::.f:li.?.4:.:1-I ::..':73fi2'J:.+F? 1 IT' '
