  • The Carillon
    ATThe BELLEVIEW Carillon STATION SEPTEMBER 2018 • FALL INTO FUN Reflections: Art by Will Day Born in New York City, Will Day lives and works in Boulder, Colo. He has traveled extensively throughout the world, and the experiences of his journeys have inspired him as a person and an artist. Primarily self-taught, his interest in painting intensified during his travels throughout North Africa, South America and Europe. His fine art training has consisted of studies in Paris, France, and Dublin, Ireland. Will has an inherent ability to create bold, abstract images on canvas — the majority being large-scale in format. His art balances texture, color and layering into cohesive and appealing images. He works with his canvasses on the floor so that he can rotate and apply materials from different vantage points. Will has a disciplined approach to each painting with the goal of producing original works that are spontaneous and resplendent. “While all the paintings are abstract, I try to create numerous shapes and forms that are visible. Several of the paintings depict forms of nature, such as flowers or landscapes,” he explains. “My ultimate goal is to fuse three or four colors in each painting to project a strong, motivating energy to the viewer.” His art is featured in public and private collections throughout the United States. He exhibits at galleries in Greenwich, Conn.; Steamboat, Colo.; San Francisco and Los Angeles, Calif. In addition, Will displays and sells his work through his website and studio in Boulder, Colo. Will was nice enough to write us a special inscription on the back.

Viewers enjoy both urban and rural landscapes interspersed with footage of remote areas otherwise inaccessible from the ground.

  • Beach Theme Ideas Page 5
    Beach Theme shac.org/beach-theme Put on your sunglasses and sunscreen, jump in and make a BIG splash with fun activities that explore water and waves with a pack beach party (no beach required). Dive right in and learn about water, our most precious resource. There is an adventure waiting in one of Earth's final frontiers, the depths of the ocean floors. Creatures never imagined before can be found there. What kinds of animals live there? What does the ocean floor look like? What makes a boat float, learn about different sea vessels, and make boats. Top it off with a raingutter regatta. This is a wonderful opportunity to teach water safety and practice the buddy system. Beach makes a great theme for pack meetings, banquets or day camp. • Pack Meetings: The pack meeting brings all the dens in the pack together for the purposes of recognizing the achievements of the Cub Scouts, communicating information about upcoming events, and providing a program that enriches the Cub Scouting experience. It helps the Cub Scouts realize their den is part of a larger organization. A good pack meeting should be well planned and well organized. Packs meet several times during the year – there is no required number. • Banquets: Most packs celebrate Scouting Anniversary Week in February with a birthday party called the blue and gold banquet; some packs do end of the year banquets.

  • Welcome to the New Land, Draken Harald Hårfagre
    Welcome to the New Land, Draken Harald Hårfagre by Ingeborg Louise ‘Vesla’ Adie This past spring, the largest Viking ship built in modern times set sail from Norway, bound for North America, following in the wake of Leif Eriksson and his crew who landed here more than 400 years before Columbus’s time. Draken Harald Hårfagre reawakened in many Scandinavian-Americans the Viking spirit in their blood and in- spired them to find out more about their heritage. Louise Adie, an Antarctic kayak guide with strong Norwegian roots, made five visits to Draken this summer and even discovered a long-lost cousin on the crew. Here, she shares what she has learned about Draken Harald Hårfagre and the traditions this modern-day Viking ship represents. n the years 800 to 1200 AD—the Viking years and the beginning of the fabled Nordic Sagas—the village of Haugusund on the west coast of Norway was a hub of shipbuilding activity, supplying fishermen, explor- ers, traders, and raiders with heav- ily built seaworthy craft, from small coast- al boats to mighty ships more than a hun- Idred feet long. More than a thousand years later, a resurgence of shipbuilding was taking place in the region, when a group funded and headed by Haugusund native Sigurd Aase, a Norwegian oil and gas en- trepreneur, set to work constructing the longest Viking ship built in modern times. Draken Harald Hårfagre, named for King Harald Hårfagre, the first King of Norway, was launched in 2012 with the goal of sail- ing in the wake of Leif Eriksson to North all photos courtesy of draken harald hårfagre America.
