COVID-19 UPDATE Campership Deadline March 28, 2020 Great Southwest Council, Boy Scouts of America | Council Website The Scout Office and High Desert Scout Shop are CLOSED through April 10 in response to State's "Stay at Home" restrictions. COVID-19 UPDATE The Great Southwest Council is committed to providing safe and healthy Scouting activities, including Cub Scout Day Camps and all activities at Gorham Scout Ranch. In response to COVID-19, we are assessing our programs to ensure the safety of our participants. This situation is not unique to our Council and we are consulting the BSA national office, other councils, industry leaders, and COVID-19 experts. The Great Southwest Council is closely monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak and following CDC, federal, state, and local guidelines for mitigating the spread of the virus and for keeping our Scouts and leaders safe. We are hopeful that we will be able to open Gorham Scout Ranch for all of the 2020 summer camping events as scheduled, including Brownsea, NYLT, Summer Camp, Webelos Week in the Woods and Cub Scout Family Camp. The camp leadership has created a plan that adds additional precautions to ensure a safe and healthy camp for all Scouts and leaders that attend. While we are hopeful that we can hold camp, due to the uncertainty of the progress of eradicating the threat of COVID-19 among the general public, the Council's leadership will make final determination on whether or not to open Gorham Scout Ranch on April 15. If the Council is unable to open camp this summer, a virtual merit badge camp program will be introduced on the 15th for your Scouts as an excellent option for a summertime Scouting activity. During these uncertain times, be sure to take care of yourselves and your families. Please wash your hands, sanitize and disinfect contact surfaces and keep up to date with advisories and recommendations from public health authorities. Thank you for your patience as we all navigate through these challenging times. Thank you for your generous support of Scouting and the Great Southwest Council.

ARCHEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS IN NEW MEXICO, COLORADO, AND UTAH By J. WALTER FEWKES (With 14 Plate's) INTRODUCTION During- the year 1916 the author spent five months in archeological investigations in New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah, three of these months being given to intensive work on the Mesa Verde National Park in Colorado. An account of the result of the Mesa Verde work will appear in the Smithsonian Annual Report for 191 6, under the title " A Prehistoric Mesa Verde Pueblo and Its People." What was accomplished in June and October, 1916, before and after the work at the Mesa Verde, is here recorded. As archeological work in the Southwest progresses, it becomes more and more evident that we can not solve the many problems it presents until we know more about the general distribution of ruins, and the characteristic forms peculiar to different geographical locali- ties. Most of the results thus far accomplished are admirable, though Hmited to a few regions, while many extensive areas have as yet not been explored by the archeologist and the types of architecture peculiar to these unexplored areas remain unknown. Here we need a reconnoissance followed by intensive work to supplement what has already been done. The following pages contain an account of what might be called archeological scouting in New Mexico and Utah.

  • A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’S Historical Membership Patterns
    A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns BY Matthew Finn Hubbard Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert ____________________________ Dr. Terry Slocum ____________________________ Dr. Xingong Li Date Defended: 11/22/2016 The Thesis committee for Matthew Finn Hubbard Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert Date approved: (12/07/2016) ii Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the historical membership patterns of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) on a regional and council scale. Using Annual Report data, maps were created to show membership patterns within the BSA’s 12 regions, and over 300 councils when available. The examination of maps reveals the membership impacts of internal and external policy changes upon the Boy Scouts of America. The maps also show how American cultural shifts have impacted the BSA. After reviewing this thesis, the reader should have a greater understanding of the creation, growth, dispersion, and eventual decline in membership of the Boy Scouts of America. Due to the popularity of the organization, and its long history, the reader may also glean some information about American culture in the 20th century as viewed through the lens of the BSA’s rise and fall in popularity. iii Table of Contents Author’s Preface ................................................................................................................pg.
