Scout motto: Be prepared * Proper attire for the weather * hiking boots and warm socks are essential! OVERVIEW DEVON 50 HISTORY BSA Troop Devon 50, a Pennsylvania Troop from Devon, PA was chartered in 1927. They built a log cabin on a plot of land – now Camp Jarvis – in the early 1900’s that they rent out to visiting Troops throughout the year. It has been a long- standing tradition for Troop 189 to camp in the cabin every year in early winter. Much scouting history from the Valley Forge area is on the walls of their cabin. The cabin features a wood-burning stove for heat in the main cabin and a kitchenette to prep meals. There is electricity in the cabin and in the past we have brought a projector and laptop for a Saturday evening movie after dinner. There will be two hikes supported on Saturday. The first and second year Scouts attending Devon 50 will hike the historical Valley Forge National Park Trail. After completing two Valley Forge hikes, the third year and beyond Scouts will visit the historic area of downtown Philadelphia.

The Valley Forge National Park is located approx. 15 min away, while the Philadelphia city center is located approx. 40 min away. VALLEY FORGE HIKE All scouts going on this campout the first and second years will take part in a 10-mile hike through the Valley Forge National Historic Park using map and compass. The first year hikers will learn navigation skills along the way while experiencing immersion in the history of General George Washington’s Continental Army. With a question and answer booklet filled out (purchase at the Visitor Center gift shop), each scout can earn a cool medal to be worn on their Scout merit badge sash. Two deep leadership and the buddy system are required for the duration of the Valley Forge Hike event. All scouts going on the Valley Forge hike for the second year will lead this 10-mile hike through the battlefield. This gives them practice with navigation and teaching it and it exercises their leadership skills among their peers; perhaps the most valuable of lessons this weekend. PHILADELPHIA HISTORIC HIKE NO KNIVES ARE PERMITTED TO BE CARRIED AT ANY TIME ON THE PHILADELPHIA HIKE DUE TO SECURITY CHECKS AT INDEPENDENCE HALL AND THE LIBERTY BELL. KNIVES WILL BE CONFISCATED BY SECURITY PERSONEL AND WILL NOT BE RETURNED. Any Scout who has completed two Valley Forge hikes now has the opportunity to participate in an historic hike through downtown Philadelphia. The 5 - 6 mile hike will entail immersion in historic sites and learning cultural history and pop history, not to mention enjoying some great food along the way. A separate guidebook, including questions to be answered along the way will be provided to each Scout. NOTE: This trip does require the Scout to bring money (separate from the $20 grub fee) for food at Reading Terminal Market for lunch, as well for souvenirs and entry into select attractions as these are not provided by the Troop.

Tornado If you hear or see a tornado coming, warn others and take cover right away If you're in a building, go to the middle of the lowest level away from windows (bathroom or closet if possible) Get under something sturdy, such as a heavy table, hold on and stay there until the danger has passed Use your other arm and hand to protect your head and neck from debris If there is no building nearby, lie flat in a low spot and use your arms and hands to protect your head Lightning The safest place to be during a lightning storm is inside a relatively large, fully enclosed building Avoid bodies of water, open areas, high ground, tall objects (trees, light poles), small shelters in open areas, and metal objects If you are outdoors and lightning is in the immediate area, crouch down with feet close together, keep your head down, and cover your ears to minimize hearing damage from thunder Stay at least 100 feet away from other individuals in the area to prevent bolts from jumping from person to person Injuries Scouts treat minor injuries using their individual first aid kit For serious injuries and hurry cases, Scouts perform immediate first aid and call for assistance with three short whistle blasts The first Scouters to arrive on the scene provides additional immediate aid as required, and determines whether medical evacuation is required by Ambulance (911) or Troop vehicle.

Implementation of this plan allows us to achieve our mission of responsibly providing our customers with the safest and most reliable transportation system possible, given available resources. Like all recent editions, this Work Plan includes all capital projects and programs, maintenance and operations activities, planning initiatives, and administrative functions. This plan contains 2,193 individual work items with a total value of $2.44 billion, consisting principally of work to be delivered or coordinated through MaineDOT, but also including funding and work delivered by other transportation agencies that receive federal funds directly including airports and transit agencies. Although I have the pleasure of presenting this plan, it is really the product of staff efforts dating back to the summer of last year.

  • Brewer Rail Trail Project

    Brewer Rail Trail Project

    Brewer Rail Trail Project Linda Johns President, Brewer Land Trust City Planner, City of Brewer September 1, 2016 The Brewer Land Trust is excited to initiate the creation of a Rail Trail through the City of Brewer! There is an inactive, overgrown portion of railroad (part of the Calais Branch Rail Line) from Wilson Street to approximately 1,000 feet easterly of Green Point Road which is approximately 2.12 miles in length. This rail bed directly abuts a 196-space City-owned parking lot, Maple Street Park, the City’s Public Safety building, an outdoor ice rink, and valuable wetland and wildlife habitats. Within a very short walk to the rail corridor, is the Brewer High School, an indoor ice arena, Brewer Auditorium, Brewer Library, and the City’s Riverwalk trail along the Penobscot River. This potential rail trail could be used by many for both recreational purposes as well as a transportation connection to other locations. Brewer has seen many more walkers and bicyclists as has the region. The Brewer High School students currently use the roads to run, which is not always the safest. This rail trail could create a loop using Dirigo Drive and Green Point Road from the school. Both the Brewer School Department and the City of Brewer would like to see this project constructed. This potential rail trail could also be a great addition to the East Coast Greenway, which is currently on-road through this portion of Brewer. There is a large wetland owned by the State next to the rail bed on Green Point Road where a variety of animals can be seen on almost any given day creating a great location for birdwatcherst.

This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/ese_papers/758 For more information, please contact [email protected]. Report on Interstate 476 (The Blue Route) Abstract For fifty earsy Pennsylvanians have been discussing the idea of constructing a new north-south highway in the central part of Delaware County, the suburban county immediately west of the City of Philadelphia. Such a highway originally was conceived as a parkway. The notion never got very far until the mid-1950's. When the federal Interstate Highway System was conceived, a facility in central Delaware County was proposed to connect the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-276) in Plymouth Meeting, Montgomery County, with the Delaware Expressway (I-95) in Ridley Township, Delaware County. This facility was designated I-476. As conceived, it would constitute the western part of a planned circumferential freeway network around Philadelphia. I-476 is commonly known as "the Blue Route" and also as the "Mid County Expressway." As an interstate highway project, 90% of the cost of I-476 would be covered by federal interstate highway funds allocated to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
