Council Fire Speaker Our guest speaker this year is Pastor Kevin Smith. As an ordained minister with the Assemblies of God, Kevin has developed multiple ministries serving children, youth and adults. He has traveled the world and spoke in countries such as France, Belgium, and England. With a passion for seeing lives changed and boys developed into future leaders, Kevin has taken his experiences and walk with Christ to come and pour back into young men all over the country. He and his wife Taurina currently live in Springfield Missouri, where they enjoy camping and hiking the great outdoors. Northern Missouri District can’t wait to see what God has in store for Kevin’s Council Fire services.

3 WELCOME TO POW-WOW 2012

We hope to see every outpost participate in this “AWESOME EVENT.” We have lots of exciting activities planned for the boys such as: Archery, 22 Rifle Shoot, Video Games, Paintball, The Lewis and Clark Expedition, and more! Friday and Saturday are days of FUN with events for all. To fully enjoy this opportunity, it is important that you carefully read the entire contents of this Pow-Wow packet.

ARCHERY and 22 RIFLE SHOOT Genesis Compound bows and 22 Rifles will be used for this exciting shooting competition. The event will be scored by the boy’s age, not the age group he is a part of. There will be first, second, and third places for boys ages 8-9, 10-11, 12-13, 14-15, and 16-18.

SECTIONAL EVENTS Each Section will host an event open to individuals, teams, or entire outposts. This year we will have the popular flag football, Video Games (yes, you read correctly!) where individuals will compete via Wii, as well as a host of others!

VISITATION The camp is open for visitation on Saturday beginning from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm as JLTA Graduation will take place at 6:00 pm prior to the Saturday evening service. It is an opportunity for parents, children, and spouses to come up and take in a little of the Pow-Wow experience. We ask that all visitors check in and check out at the Chapel upon entering and exiting the camp. We look forward to spending the day with you.

FCF VILLAGE

The FCF Village is a popular part of the camp, and is always an exciting place to visit. The Village will be open Friday and Saturday afternoon to non-FCF members. This is a great opportunity for boys to see and learn more about what FCF is all about. Boys may partake in tomahawk throwing, watch frontier demonstrations, make crafts, and listen to storytelling. All FCF members will need to be in costume and participate in showing the boys around the Village, sharing with them the spirit of FCF. Every FCF member should set up a lodge in the village whether you are able to stay in the village or not. All young-bucks (FCF members under 18) are invited to stay in the village with their Outpost Coordinator’s permission.

4 BGMC – Masters Toolbox

With your help, the Northern Missouri District Royal Rangers gave $1,910.00 to Master’s Toolbox in 2011 which went directly to the Royal Rangers International (RRI) Translation of the Global Curriculum into five additional languages. Last year, Northern Missouri was the 5th highest giving per capita. This year’s giving will go towards paying for the awesome new climbing walls and zip line at camp Eagle Rock, which you will see at Camporama. This year’s goal is $2500, so please remember to bring your Masters Toolboxes to Pow-Wow to help with the cause. Please give generously.

Competition Abounds

5 OUTPOST COORDINATORS & SECTIONAL COMMANDERS INFORMATION

Arrival and Check-In When your outpost arrives at camp, you must check-in at the chapel. There are 3 entrances to Camp Hope. The chapel is located at entrance 1, which is the east entrance. At the check-in, you will receive a schedule, map, T-Shirts, and patches. Please review the Camp Map and Schedule to see if there are any changes. The Schedule will be posted behind the chapel, at the Staff Lodge, and at the Concession area across from the First Aid Tent. Staff will be working around the camp in various capacities. If you need assistance please contact one of them or check in at the Staff Lodge near the Chapel.

Outpost Coordinators Meeting There will be an orientation meeting at 6 p.m., Thursday evening in the Chapel. This orientation meeting will cover the schedule, rules, protocol, and other important information. The outpost coordinator or a representative must attend this meeting.

Kitchen Duties Kitchen duties are assigned as follows. Each Section shall provide 4 young men to help with kitchen duties and dining hall clean-up. The 4 volunteers shall arrive 30 minutes early to eat their meals, then serve during and after the meal.

Section 1: Thursday Dinner Section 4: Friday Breakfast Section 5: Friday Lunch Section 2: Friday Dinner Section 6: Saturday Breakfast Section 3: Saturday Lunch Section 2 + 3: Saturday Dinner Gold Medalists: Sunday Breakfast

DINING HALL AND MEALS Due to the small size of the dining area, there will be three (3) assigned meal times. Your Outpost will receive their designated meal time upon check-in. Please be sure to be on time for meals. Executive staff and key personnel are able to eat at any of the three times to allow schedule flexibility. You must wear your wrist band to receive your meals. All guests must check-in to receive meal wristbands.

PASTORS DAY Friday will be promoted as Pastors Day. This is an opportunity for pastors to come and enjoy the activities with their outpost. Pastors are encouraged to stick around for dinner and attend the evening council fire service. Pastors may want to spend the night in the staff/VIP lodge or stay with their outpost and watch your boys compete in the Lewis and Clark Expedition event on Saturday. The Pastor’s camp fee and meals are free. All pastor’s attending will receive a patch and T-shirt. Pastors should check in at the Chapel (Entrance 1).

6 CLOTHING Because of warm climate, the official dress of the Pow-Wow is the issued Pow-Wow T-Shirt or other Ranger Related T-Shirt, jeans or shorts. It may get cold in the evening, so make sure the boys bring a sweat shirt or jacket. All persons wanting to swim must wear swim trunks, shirt, and shoes to the pool. No Jeans or cut-off pants allowed in the pool. After registration you will receive 1 Camp T-shirt and 2 Camp Patches, for everyone in your outpost. We can only guarantee T-shirts and patches to those who pre-register.

EQUIPMENT A variety of equipment and other items will be used for the activities or events. Please do not move, re-arrange, or use these items unless you are invited to do so. These items have been placed here at great effort and expense.

BGMC Challenge Outpost Coordinators, in case you were not aware, BGMC has created a special offering box for Royal Rangers to use to collect money for the "Masters Toolbox" program. These boxes are free, and they can be ordered by calling GPH at 1-800-641-4310. These boxes (like any of the BGMC free resources) are not listed on the GPH or BGMC Web site because they are a free resource.

7 POW-WOW RULES

The following rules and regulations governing the Pow-Wow are outlined for the safety of your Outpost as well as the enjoyment of the facilities available. Royal Rangers must always keep in mind to leave the area in better condition than when they came. A Pow-Wow experience will never be forgotten by the boys or leaders; therefore it should be a good experience for all and left with the desire to return next year. The rules should be covered with your outpost so the boys and leaders understand what is expected of them.

1. CONTROL AND SUPERVISION: (EVERY OUTPOST SHOULD HAVE ONE LEADER FOR EVERY 4-6 BOYS, DEPENDING UPON THEIR AGE AND CAMPING EXPERIENCE.) Outpost Commanders are to control and supervise the boys in their outpost at all times. Boys should travel to and from events using the buddy system. There should be no one wandering around alone. Know where your boys are going and make sure they have proper supervision. There is always the possibility of an accident.

2. FIRE SAFETY: (A COMMANDER MUST SUPERVISE BOYS WHEN WORKING WITH OR AROUND FIRES.) ● Properly clear the area for a fire. Fires are permitted ONLY in fire barrels! Camp New Hope does not provide us Fire Barrels. If you plan on having a fire in your camp you will need to bring a Fire Barrel or pit with you! ● Each fire shall have a bucket of water, sand, or dirt readily available. ● Be sure there are no overhanging trees over the fire. ● Boys are not allowed to bring liquid fire starting fluid to camp. ● No candles or fuel lanterns will be allowed in tents or cabins. ● Make sure that when you leave your campsite that all fires are extinguished.

3. KNIVES AND AXES: (A COMMANDER MUST SUPERVISE BOYS WHEN WORKING WITH ANY HAND TOOLS.) ● Only boys who have completed the Royal Ranger Tool Craft course shall be allowed to use knives and/or axes. ● No sheath knives are allowed. Boys should bring pocket knives only.

4. SWIMMING: Swimming will only be permitted during the scheduled times and in designated areas only! No boys may go into the water without a commander supervising them. NO EXCEPTIONS! The “Buddy System” will be strictly enforced in the swimming area/pool.

5. REGISTRATION FORM & INSURANCE: Each boy is required to have a medical release and permission forms filled out in their entirety. Every commander, leader, or father needs to have a medical release and Pastor’s certification filled out in their entirety. The Outpost Coordinator needs to keep one copy on file at his campsite and turn one copy in to the District Director when they register.

8 POW-WOW RULES (Continued)

6. PRAYER: Commanders we ask that you start praying and fasting now that there will be many boys coming to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and being filled with the Holy Spirit during our council fire services. This is what Pow-Wow is all about! Commit to pray daily that the Lord will move in a mighty way.

7. COUNCIL FIRE: All Rangers and commanders must attend ALL morning and evening services. No one is to be left back in the campsite. It is also a time for announcements and presentations that you do not want to miss.

8. VEHICLES: Vehicles will be allowed into the campsites for loading and unloading only. They must be removed as soon as they are unloaded. Due to the location of the camping area it may be necessary to offload your outpost equipment into a trailer and have it towed to your campsite. Any outpost that has not removed their vehicles from their campsite by morning assembly on Friday will not be eligible for Awards. Let’s be considerate, patient, and compliant.

9. RESTROOMS AND SHOWERS: This camp has restrooms and shower facilities. We will be assigning some outposts to help us clean the restrooms and showers each evening. Remember we want to leave a good impression of Royal Rangers, as we would like to use this facility annually. If the restrooms need attention, please notify someone on the District Staff.

10. Each Outpost Coordinator will be responsible for the conduct of his Outpost.

11. Pow-Wow’s are geared for boys ages 8-18 so have your boys invite their friends!

12. All garbage must be kept in garbage bags. Full garbage bags need to be placed in the dumpster behind the maintenance building next to the swimming pool for disposal.

13. No one is to take a short cut through another campsite.

14. The time between lights out (taps) and reveille must be respected. That includes keeping quiet while remaining in your camping area. No one is to be about the camp after Taps. The only exception to this rule is the Ranger Patrol and Camp Staff.

15. No one is to be in the Council Fire Area or Swimming Area except when he is instructed to go there, and supervised.

16. All flashlights will remain off at the Council Fire Area until after the council fire is over. Commanders please help us with this.

17. There will be no cutting of live trees or saplings. There are no lashing materials available at this site. Bring your own lashing materials for projects and please take all materials home with you.

9 POW-WOW RULES (Continued)

18. No ditching of tents or digging pits for fire or dish water disposal.

19. All camp fires must be in a fire barrel unless approved by the District Director.

20. No Golf Carts or Gators allowed unless prior approval is made by the District Director for use. Outpost Coordinators may contact the District Director to arrange transport of handicapped persons. Emergency vehicles will be assigned and marked for use.

21. Camp New Hope has a swimming pool. All men and boys wanting to swim must wear swim trunks, shirt, and shoes to the pool. No Jeans or cut-off pants allowed in the swimming pool. Please instruct your boys on the buddy system and practice it before you come to camp. We will need each Outpost to provide Commanders, Leaders, or adult supervision with their boys when they come to the swimming area. Please check the schedule and bring the boys at the appropriate time. Do not bring them if their age group is not supposed to be there.

22. Camp New Hope is a large camp. The buddy system will in effect during Pow-Wow if any staff member finds a boy by himself, he will be taken to the staff lodge and released only to the Outpost Coordinator of his Outpost. There is a lot to see and do at the camp, and we want every boy to experience the excitement, scenes, and beauty of Camp New Hope, however, we want them to be safe as well. Be sure your boys understand the buddy system and use it.

23. Camp Sanitation: Trash cans will be provided at various locations. Let’s keep the camp clean at all times. Everyone is expected to do their part and pick up the trash, whether it is their trash or not. Outpost leaders, please take charge in ensuring this is a priority.

10 NORTHERN MISSOURI DISTRICT ROYAL RANGERS Lewis & Clark: The Expedition Continues

THE CHALLENGE This year’s district event is The Corps of Discovery! With your exploration of the West, teams will encounter native games, foods, shoots, and streams. So be prepaired to complete the course with the best time! Most of all have fun!

THE RULES A. Each outpost/team is required to have a boy for each event (you may have your boys compete in more than 1 event and the times will be averaged) B. Each outpost is required to supply adult helpers to run the events C. Each outpost/team should be comprised of a mixture of age groups D. Outposts with more than 10 boys may have multiple teams

The Course! The course will be timed from beginning to end with each station requiring the competitor to complete a simple skill or activity properly and as quickly as possible.

Each Outpost/team will need to make sure they have boys stationed at each location to compete in that challenge or event. If you don’t have enough boys from your Outpost team, they may do more than one event in order to complete the event. In between each event you will need a runner. This way you can utilize several people from your outpost team.

Event 1 – Ol’ Grizz: On your way through the prairies, you encounter a ferocious grizzly bear and must blast your way to safety with a BB gun. Pick the fastest boy you have to run a distance in a hurry as they race to event 2

11 Event 2 – Native Game - Rock Ball: Using strength and skill, one team mate must through a weighted ball up and into a basket. Send your runner on his way to event 3.

Event 3 – Buffalo Hunt: Using bow and arrow, hit the kill zone 3 times. Send your runner to event number 4.

Event 4 – Heading Upstream: Using only your raft and arms, navigate the turbulent waters (must be a good swimmer and wearing proper swimming attire). Have runner advance to event 5.

Event 5 – Native Game #2 - Indian Wrestling: While crossing through Native territory, you have encountered a tribe that wants to test your manhood. Wrestle your way to victory as you compete against this warrior and the clock!

Event 6 – Fire Starter: Like good ole John Colter, it’s a gettin’ late and you’ve gotta keep warm. Start a fire quick and make it big enough to keep you from shivering and burn a string in two.

Event 7 – Rock Stomach: Local cuisine may not be as tasty as you wish, but you’ve gotta get it down without throwing it up!

Awards First, Second and Third Place Mount the podium as awards will be given to the top three outpost teams, with the fastest time to complete the course. (Assuming that we have three finishers!)
