  • Where to Go Camping
    There was a statement in an older version of the Boy Scout Handbook that said: “Have you ever dreamed of hiking the wilderness trails that were worn down under moccasins hundreds of years ago? Do you hear in your imagination the almost soundless dip, dip of Indian canoe paddles or the ring of the axe of an early pioneer hewing a home out of the American wilderness? Have you followed with you mind’s eye the covered wagon on the trek across our continent? Yes, it’s fun to be a Boy Scout! It’s fun to go hiking and camping with your best friends…..to swim, to dive, to paddle a canoe, to wield the axe…..to follow in the footsteps of the pioneers who led the way through the wilderness…..to stare into the glowing embers of the campfire and dream of the wonders of the lift that is in store for you…” This is the heart of Scouting, but we don’t always know the best place to go on these outings. How better can the Order of the Arrow fulfill a part of their responsibility of service to others than to make this camping guide available? A great guide to the best camping, boating, hiking and sightseeing both in and out of the Council, but, of course, one of the best places to do real camping is at one of the Council’s reservations. Richard A. Henson or Rodney Scout Reservation, both long term camping during the summer months, or weekends through the year, affords a maximum of program.

  • Do You Canoe?
    Vol. 6, No. 11 DO YOU CANOE? In this Issue: • Paddling Through the Past • How Do You Canoe? • Canoe Trekking • Northern Tier Wilderness Canoeing • Philmont's Unlikely Portage Woodcraft. Scoutcraft. Campcraft. The core crafts of the BSA include one more – the canoe – a watercraft floating through the heart of Scout adventures since the organization’s earliest days. PADDLING THROUGH THE PAST Robert Baden-Powell was a gifted artist. In Scouting for Boys, his 1908 book that laid the foundations for the Scouting movement, he included several sketches of canoes. "Scouts learn endurance in the open," Baden-Powell wrote under this drawing. "Like explorers, they carry their own burdens and paddle their own canoes." American Daniel Carter Beard, a founder of the BSA and another man skilled with pen and ink, also praised the canoe. A portage he sketched is quite a bit more dramatic than the one drawn by Baden-Powell: Mr. Beard was also loved building canoes. His technical drawings for their construction are as handsome as the boats themselves. Most canoes today are manufactured by molding together layers of plastic, fiberglass, and other materials such as bulletproof Kevlar cloth. Even the simplest canoe can launch a couple of paddlers into a day of fun and discovery on the water. HOW DO YOU CANOE? A fantastic thing about a canoe is that almost anyone can climb in and paddle across quiet water right away. A personal flotation device is important for safety. So is knowledge of what to do in the unlikely event you capsize, and a partner for sharing the experience.
