Where to Go Activities Guide
Order of the Arrow Where To Go Activities Guide Sponsored by Ni-Sanak-Tani Lodge #381 Gateway Area Council (Spring 2009 Edition) Ni-Sanak-Tani Lodge #381 – Gateway Area Council, BSA, - 2009a, Updated 4/5/2009 1 (this page intentionally left blank) Ni-Sanak-Tani Lodge #381 – Gateway Area Council, BSA, - 2009a, Updated 4/5/2009 2 Introduction Order of the Arrow – “Where To Go” Guide This resource has been developed to help leaders provide a greater outdoor adventure. We hope to expand this booklet regularly with more ideas and places to go. A large part of the Scouting program calls for new experiences in new places! A committee of the Order of the Arrow youth were selected, and under the guidance of the Lodge Executive Committee, developed this resource as a service to you. One of the major purposes of the Order is to promote Scout camping and to help strengthen the district and council camping year-round. This includes our Camp Decorah summer and winter programs, Camporees, Klondikes, Expos, High Adventure Bases and unit camping. Although not listed in this resource, another great place to take your unit includes county owned property. This is often available for little or no cost and can be arranged by contacting your local Park Department or County Forester. More information about nearby private and public facilities can be found at your local Chamber of Commerce. We want to thank you for keeping the “Outing” in Scouting. Disclaimer Note that the Internet links included in this document are for your convenience. There is no connection to them, other than their being to BSA-recognized units (councils, or Scouting.org), government agencies, tourism groups, or organizations that share a similar interest in that particular topic. -
