This fun-filled Lumberjack themed Camporee weekend will be held in the beautiful northern setting of the Gardner Dam Adventure Base, October 11th-13th, 2024.  A big thanks goes out to our Wesmianiw OA Chapter, for organizing and running this year's Fall Camporee!

The activities planned for Saturday will incorporate team building and scout skills.  Activities may include: Totem Chip, Paul Bunyan Award, Tomahawk Tossing, Knot Relay, Fire Building, String Burning, and a Compass Course.

We expect to have a great crowd and a fantastic weekend, but for the camporee to be successful, we need YOU!

How can you help?  Above all, come prepared to have fun.  Bring every member of your Troop and Webelos Den to participate. Webelos can camp with a Troop or with their den.  It is a great way to see if the scouts would like to cross over to a specific Troop by camping with them! We want all Webelos to see exactly how much fun it is to join a Scouts BSA Troop. 

Cost will be $15.00 per person and this will be a Patrol Cooking event.  Make sure to plan out your meals, bring food and cooking equipment for your Troops.  The traveling Golden Spatula will be up for grabs on Saturday, so have those contest recipes ready for dinner on Saturday!  An event patch will be given out to all participants. There is currently a fire ban in place, so only propane and charcoal fires are allowed.  Please bring up Health Forms with only parts A & B completed.  These will be kept by the Health Officer on site and not returned, if you'd like a copy, please ask us for one.

In addition to a fun Fall Camporee event, Introduction to Outdoor Leadership Training (IOLS) and Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO) will be provided for adult leaders.  Leaders will be eating with the IOLS and BALOO groups and would not be able to provide leadership to their units.  Participants can tent and sleep in their units campsites.  For more information and to register for these courses, click on these links.  IOLS: https://scoutingevent.com/635-IOLS   BALOO:  https://scoutingevent.com/635-84624
