Camp
Promotion
As Scouting's National Honor Society, one of Shawnee Lodge basic
objectives is to promote the camping program of the Greater St. Louis
Area Council. This should include troop and team visitation by members
of the chapter camping promotion committee.
Summer
Camp is the high point of the year for a Scout, yet many Scouts are
hesitant about attending camp because they've never been there. What
younger Scouts, as well as older Scouts, are waiting for someone to
come and tell or remind them about all the things they can do at
summer camp, and to encourage them to go to camp.
As
a camp promoter you will be given a packet at your November chapter
meeting which contains facts about camp and helpful hints on how to
make your presentation. You will promote the troop(s) as a member of a
team. The Scoutmaster will need to be contacted and a date set for
your promotion. On that date your team will go to the troop with all
the materials and talk to them about camp, at the same time
encouraging everyone to attend camp. You'll find almost everyone
leaving your presentation wanting to go to camp, and you will also
receive a lodge camp promoter emblem for your efforts.
Interested
Arrowmen should contact their Chapter Camp Promotion Chairman or
Chapter Officers.
Request
Camp Promotion Representative(s)
Unit Leaders if you need Arrowmen to help promote your troops summer
camp, please contact your Chapter Camp Promotion Chairman or anyone of
your Chapter Officers. To setup a time and date.
