Trek Planning Guide Last Updated: 2/10/2021 Page 2 Two Scout Camps and a High Adventure Base in the Northwoods Dear Scout Leader, We are excited to have you join us this summer! Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan’s goal is to provide a safe, fun environment for your youth to test their Scouting mettle in the beautiful outdoor setting that is Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan Scout Reservation. Whether you are in East Camp, West Camp, or out on a Trek, we know that you will find the experience you are seeking. At Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan, we promise your Scouts will find fun, adventurous activities to do. A Scout’s experience at camp helps independence, self-reliance, and develop Leadership skills and values that are key for good citizenship and service to others. This Camp Guide and the Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan website, www.makajawan.com, are resources for you and your Unit to prepare for camp. CAMP FORMS: All Camp forms are now available in Appendix 2 – Useful Documents & Forms on page 27 . Please feel free to duplicate any materials for distribution to your fellow leaders, parents, and Scouts. Explore our social media pages for regular updates. We invite you to share your favorite photos and experiences on all of them as well. https://www.facebook.com/makajawan https://www.instagram.com/makajawan/ We firmly believe that you and your Scouts will leave with valuable new skills, abilities, and memories. Expand your summer camp experience by taking advantage of all our council properties as part of your year-round camping program. We look forward to seeing you at camp! “The camp world is not a world of make-believe. It is a normal world where there are JOBS TO BE DONE, cabins to be swept, bunks to be made, tables to be cleared. Where there is HELP AND GUIDANCE, the other showing the younger how to handle a canoe, make bows, shoot with skill. Where there is FELLOWSHIP AND FUN in working together with saw and twine and paint in handicraft lodge. Where there is BEAUTY AND INSPIRATION in singing voices and the leaping campfire reflected at the water’s edge. Camp is not a world of tearing down, of fighting and hating and mass conflict, which for the present we adults must endure and finally vanquish. Camp is, as always, a normal world of change and progress, of challenge and security, of effort and reward, of beauty, and meaning, and peace”. – From a 1945 camp brochure – Rory Fencl, Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan Reservation Director Adam Hoeflich, NEIC Camping Committee Chairman Tom Macfadden, NEIC Vice President of Program Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan Scout Reservation W6500 Spring Lake Road, Pearson, WI 54462 Proudly Serving Northeast Illinois Council, Boy Scouts of America since 1929 Trek Planning Guide Last Updated: 2/10/2021 Page 3 Year-Round - Council Office Contact Information Kasperson Center for Scouting at Morrison Park Northeast Illinois Council, BSA 850 Forest Edge Drive Vernon Hills, IL 60061 Main Phone: 847-433-1813 / Main Fax: 847-433-2036 Council Website: https://neic.ihubapp.org / Camp Website: https://makajawan.com NEW: Mail-in and In-Person Payments Form: Mail or bring this form to the council office.

  • SHORT HISTORY. 3 Along the St. Lawrence. During the Regime of the Associates the Founda- Tions of Montreal, the Future Metropoli
    SHORT HISTORY. 3 along the St. Lawrence. During the regime of the Associates the founda­ tions of Montreal, the future metropolis of Canada, were laid. In 1667, four years after the 100 Associates had ceased to exist as a chartered com­ pany, the white population of New France was nearly 4,000. 5. In 1672 the Count de Frontenac was appointed Governor, and, next to Champlain, he is in every way the most conspicuous figure among the early holders of that office. The chief glory of his administration was the spirit of daring exploration and discovery by which it was characterized, the grandest achievement of all being the exploration of the Mississippi River and the great West under Joliette, Marquette, La Salle and Hennepin. In 1688 war between France and England led to hostilities between the French and the New England colonies. After nine years of harrying, peace came, and by the treaty of Ryswick (1697) the two nations restored to each other the conquests they had made. The peace lasted four 'years. The war of the Spanish succession then involved England and France in bloody strife, which, of course, had to be shared by their colonies. Thenceforward until 1713 tragic scenes were enacted from the shores of Acadia to the pathless forests of the West, in which French, English and Indian warriors outvied one another in lust for blood. During the long period of peace following the Treaty of Utrecht (1713), the population of New France slowly increased. The cultivation of the soil was, however, greatly neglected for the seductive fur trade, which possessed for the adventurous voyageur and coureur des bois a fascination that even its enormous profits did not wholly explain.

Les Autochtones chassent et vendent leurs fourrures aux Européens. Ils échangent les peaux contre des armes à feu, des armes blanches, des chaudières, des outils, etc. La chasse devient plus facile avec ces nouvelles armes. Elle s’intensifie aussi à cause des besoins insatiables des Européens : on fait des chapeaux très chics avec la peau du castor. Par conséquent, les castors se font plus rares dans la vallée du Saint-Laurent. De plus, les guerres amérindiennes affectent grandement les Hurons, les principaux intermédiaires des Blancs. Les Français décident de traiter directement avec les nombreuses communautés autochtones : c’est le début des coureurs des bois. En canot d’écorce, ils remontent le fleuve Saint-Laurent vers l’ouest.

  • Coureur Des Bois Program
    Coureur des Bois Program A Coureur des Bois (English translation: Runner of the Woods) was an independent entrepreneur who journeyed to the interior of North America at the beginning of the 18th Century to take advantage of the Fur Trade.

  • “Real Fire, This Food of Louisiana!”: Food Choice, Consumption, and Class in Colonial Louisiana
    “Real fire, this food of Louisiana!”: Food Choice, Consumption, and Class in Colonial Louisiana Lou Henderson Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Honours Program in History University of British Columbia Okanagan (2017) Faculty Supervisor: Dr. Julien Vernet, Department of History Author’s Signature: Date: Supervisor’s Signature: Date: Honours Chair’s Signature: Date: Abstract Although the cultural backgrounds of its population largely determined food choice in colonial Louisiana (the French generally preferred European foods and resisted indigenous foods), economic resources were equally, if not more important in determining taste. Applying the ideas of Claude Fischler and Pierre Bourdieu, this thesis examines the historical development of a distinct cuisine against both developmental and socioeconomic processes, as the overall development of the colonial economy made bare survival more remote and resource distribution became increasingly hierarchical. This meant, on the one hand, that once merchants firmly established shipping routes, colonial elites could import Roquefort cheese or host lavish parties as a kind of conspicuous consumption. On the other hand, much of the population remained in a precarious state, and could face starvation with a bad turn in the weather. The division between necessity and luxury in food choice reflected class divisions in colonial society. These divisions grew in proportion with the economic development of the colony; this grew from relatively egalitarian conditions when subsistence and necessity were the norm to increasing conspicuous consumption and discursive strategies for marking good and bad taste. Acknowledgements It is hard to imagine that this project would have ever been completed without the encouragement and support of my supervisor, Dr.

  • Narrating Quebec's Insurgent Girlhood
    Souveraines de corps frontaliers: Narrating Quebec’s Insurgent Girlhood Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University Rachel Elizabeth Willis M. A., B. A. Department of French and Italian The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Danielle Marx-Scouras, Advisor Jennifer Willging Wynne Wong Copyright by Rachel Elizabeth Willis 2017 ABSTRACT This dissertation reconstructs a narrative trajectory of French- Canadian girlhood in the twentieth-century through literature and film, revealing the French-Canadian girl as temporary sovereign of the contested borderland of her own body. In the works studied in this project, the girl- body emerges as a corps frontalier, a gendered borderland between childhood and womanhood, a space of no-longer/not-yet-ness that disrupts stable, traditional structures of identity and subjectivity. The girl herself, inhabitant of that body, is a troublesome subject-in-process, a figure marked by ambivalence, uncertainty, fluidity, and potentiality. She resists categorization as either child or woman, seeking instead to claim sovereignty over the territory of her body and her destiny as a girl. In many ways, she is like French-Canadian society, perpetually and actively en devenir, always working to define herself. Life in that unstable zone is at once exhilarating and exhausting, and appears untenable – but must this be the case? Or can a new conception of girlhood align with new conceptions of Québécois(e) nationality to make it possible for both to retain the active potentiality of being mineur(e)? In order to better understand the relationship between feminine adolescence and French-Canadian identity, this project traces the evolution of girlhood as narrated in a set of literary and cinematic works.
