Furthermore, such a broad focus makes The Council Guide more than just another patch identification guide – The Council Guide is also a resource for individuals wishing to record and learn about the history of Scouting through its memorabilia. ORGANIZATION Since The Council Guide includes a wide variety of issues, made in different shapes and sizes and for different purposes, it can be difficult to catalog these issues in a consistent way.

  • Where to Go Camping Guide
    WHERE TO GO CAMPING GUIDE Created By: Pachsegink Lodge #246 BSA Affairs Department May 2010 1 MAQUOKETA CAVES STATE PARK 10970 98th St. Maquoketa, IA 52060 563-652-5833 Reservations: 877-427-2757 Maquoketa Caves State Park has more caves than any other park in Iowa. There are over a dozen caves, although most of them are small, and require a bit of wriggling to explore. This is a great park to learn the basics of caving, and is appropriate for any age scout. The limestone caves and bluffs are very scenic, and the park has beautiful trails to hike, for those non- cavers. Dance Hall Cave is the largest cave in the park, and in most areas, you won’t even have to bend over to walk through this cave. (See photo on left) Some of the more fun caves, however, are the ones that are challenging to enter. The park also boasts a natural bridge, which spans across the canyon 50 feet above Raccoon Creek. Wye cave is also very large once you get past the entrance. It floods frequently, but when it is not flooded, it is one of the most cavernous caves in the park, and perfect for those scouts that love to explore. Directions from Council: Take Ogden west for 1.6 miles to I-294 north. Take I-294 north for 1.5 miles to I-88 west. Take I-88 west for 103 miles to Exit 36 toward US-30W/Clinton Continue to follow US-30W for 44 miles to US-61 north Take US-61 north for 21 miles to Exit 312A toward Cedar Rapids/Maquoketa Turn Left onto CR-Y31 and travel 6 miles to 98th St.

  • Neonicotinoid Seed Treatment Use in Iowa Scouting & Field History Reports for Early Season Corn and Soybean IPM
    Making Decisions About Neonicotinoid Seed Treatment Use in Iowa Scouting & Field History Reports for Early Season Corn and Soybean IPM 1 Neonicotinoid seed treatments may provide control of some early season corn and soybean pests. When practicing integrated pest management (IPM), a chemical control strategy like neonicotinoid seed treatments should only be used when there is a demonstrated need. Scouting and monitoring records can provide the evidence needed to justify use of an insecticidal seed treatment. This fact sheet provides guidance on 1) which corn and soybean pests may be targeted effectively with neonicotinoid seed treatments, 2) when scouting should occur to inform future decisions on use of neonicotinoid seed treatments, and 3) how to scout for these early season pests. NEONICOTINOID SEED TREATMENTS MAY BE USED FOR THE FOLLOWING PESTS: EARLY-SEASON INSECT PEST CORN SOYBEAN Bean leaf beetle X* Seedcorn maggot X* X* True white grubs X* X* Wireworms X* X* *Not a frequent economic pest in Iowa 2 Bean leaf beetle Soybean Bean leaf beetles infrequently cause significant economic early season soybean injury. Only in Scouting Tips to Inform Next Season fields with a history of both bean leaf beetles Seed Treatment Decisions: and bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) would neonicotinoid seed treatments be recommended • Scouting Timing (for beetles): Throughout for early-season suppression.
