President's Message As I write this at summer's end. we've just received the news from Washington that Juliette Gordon Low has become the second woman in history to have a major federal building named in her honor. The Juliette Gordon Low Fed­ J eral Building complex is now under construction on Telfair Square in Savan­ nah. Ga .• just two blocks from the Birthplace. I know you share my pride in this national recognition of our extraor· dlnary founder. It is not only a tribute to her and the organization she created, it honors you and the millions of Girl Scout \olunteers .... ho ha\e follo.,.,ed her lead in serving the girls of America for more than 5e\ en decades. That news arrived shortly after my return from an unforgettable first visit to our magnificent National Center West. What a glorious time I hadl The highlights of my three days there are described on page 6, along with on­ the-scene photos of girls, their leaders. \lSi ling officials, and good friends of the center. I loved it all-the happy young faces of the girls, the unspoiled natural setting, the chuck-wagon dinner with its backdrop of a spectacular western sunset the sound of taps echoing O\ er the hilltops. Particularly memorable was Its effect on one very young Girl Scout "'ho'd never been west of the Hudson River. The beauty of the center and the excitement of new vistas, new experiences, and new friendships made a lasting impression on her bright young mind. It also was impressive to see ho.,., the center's activities challenge the Girl Scouting leaders, as well as the girls. Both ha\e countless opportunities to stretch themselves and learn more about their own capabilities-and that has to should always be a make a real difference in their lives! I think it's important to remember that Girl Scouting should always be a growth experience growth experience for both girls and adults-a time for self-discovery, a place to learn new skills to better serve the larger community. Not long ago I for both girls and attended an awards dinner, sponsored by the Birmingham (Alabama) Beau­ tlflcatlon Board, and saw how Girl Scout volunteers can join others to raise adults-a time for the quality of life In a community. I feel very proud that Girl Scout adults serve on this board and on many other community improvement committees self-discovery, a across the country. You bring a special understanding of youth's capabilities place to learn new along with organizational and managerial skills. You do such a superb job as Girl Scout volunteers, it's wonderful that so many of you also have the skills to better will and energy to share your talents and experience with the larger com­ munity. seJVe the larger We're full of anticipation and exceedingly proud that we will soon be hosting WAGGGS 25th World Conference, to be held in Tarrytown, N.Y., July community. 17-July 26, 1984.

When we became a nation in 1776, the buffaloes, the first animals to vanish when the wilderness is settled, roved to the crests of the mountains which mark the western boundaries of Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the Carolinas.

Their numbers were countless--incredible. In vast herds of hundreds of thousands of individuals, they roamed from the Saskatchewan to the Rio Grande and westward to the Rocky Mountains.

Their numbers slowly diminished, but the decrease was very gradual until after the Civil War. They were not destroyed by the settlers, but by the railways and the skin hunters. After the ending of the Civil War, the work of constructing trans-continental railway lines was pushed forward with the utmost vigor. These supplied cheap and indispensable, but hitherto wholly lacking, means of transportation to the hunters; and at the same time the demand for buffalo robes and hides became very great, while the enormous numbers of the beasts, and the comparative ease with which they were slaughtered, attracted throngs of adventurers.

It is my honor and privilege to applaud the achievements of the recipients of the 2019 Congressional Award Gold Medal. These outstanding 538 young Americans have challenged themselves and made lasting contributions to local communities across this great nation. This is our largest class of Gold Medalists to date! The Gold Medal Ceremony is the culmination of a long journey for our awardees. For each participant the journey was unique, but one that likely included many highs and lows. The Congressional Award program was designed to instill a wide range of life skills and attributes that are necessary to navigate and overcome obstacles on the path to success - both in the classroom and beyond. And now that each young person has met these challenges and attained their goals, we hope they will continue to amaze and inspire us by pursuing their passions, utilizing their talents, and demonstrating an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we would like to extend our great appreciation to our partner organizations and sponsors for their continued support.

    GUIDE TO COUNCIL CAMPS NATIONAL PARKS CALIFORNIA PARKS ORANGE COUNTY PARKS SAN BERNARDINO PARKS 1 A Few Basics. As all American, I will do my best to . Be clean in my outdoor manners, Be careful with fire, Be considerate ill the outdoors, and Be conservation minded. -The Outdoor Code, The Boy Scout Handbook, 1993 Edition, Page 55 The Outdoor Code is perhaps the most well-known and shortest statement of BSA outdoor policy. It can be expanded into six points that cover how your unit can have a 'low-impact' on your weekend car camping and backpacking outings: Pretrip Plans Wear Scout uniforms or other clothes that will blend into the surroundings. When picking camping equipment, such as tents, try to abide by the same rule. Pack food in containers that you'll carry home at the end of a trip. Take along (and use) trash bags. Plan to have 12 or fewer people staying in an individual campsite. Pick areas that are suited to the type of activity that you are planning. Using Trails Stay on the trail. Don't cut across switchbacks. Campsites Choose sites free of fragile plants. Camp out of sight of trails, streams, and lakes. Don't dig trenches around your tents or make any other unneeded holes. Fires Build fires only where appropriate and allowed. Try to get by with just propane stoves. Use existing fire rings instead of making new ones. Bring your own wood supply with you whenever possible. Open gathering may be prohibited. If you gather firewood, make sure you only burn small wood gathered from the ground.
