Fall Reunion 2007

     On September 7, 8, & 9 the Shawnee Lodge will hold its Fall Reunion at the S bar F Scout Ranch. Our Reunion is one of the nation’s largest O.A. events dedicated to service and brotherhood. Throughout the duration of the weekend each youth member must have adequate adult supervision to participate. All Arrowmen must provide their own equipment and meals, with the exception of Saturday dinner, if purchased.

     The price of Saturday dinner and patch is $12.50 if paid before August 15 and $15 thereafter. The patch by itself is $8.50 and $11 after August 15. Both tickets include the ice cream social on Saturday evening.

     The emblem for the Reunion is only available to those who purchase a ticket for the event. Without a dues base, the Lodge must rely on paying participants at Lodge events. There will be only 3,000 emblems available, so purchase your ticket in advance. The numbers of tickets sold will not exceed the number of emblems. Enclosed in the Lookout was an envelope for making your reservations; one can also be downloaded below. Make your reservations quickly, as the event has sold out in past years; meals and emblems are limited.

Additional Information

Parking/Camping Plan

     The lodge has implemented the following plan to insure that all Brothers and Candidates have a safe and enjoyable weekend. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and needed.

  1. Do not arrive before 4:00 p.m.; the gate will be locked. In the past, those arriving early have created problems in the layout of the campsites and chapter area headquarters. This is a youth run event and it is not necessary or desired that a Scout leave school early.

  2. Thanks to past service projects by chapters, the east side of the main asphalt road will again be open to head-in parking. Please be careful, it’s rough in spots! Signs will be posted on the west side of this road prohibiting stopping or parking. Obey them. We would like to keep this road open for two-way traffic. No parallel parking on or next to the main road.

  3. Please make use of the expanded areas of the camporee field west of the power cut.

  4. The power cut road is open for one way traffic only. Head-in parking is allowed on both sides.

  5. Do not drive into the camporee area! No one wants to sleep in  your tire ruts.

  6. No Traffic will be allowed during ceremonies! If possible, leae your car parked once you arrive. No Scouts are allowed in the back of a pickup trucks.

  7. The S bar F Ranch speed limit is 20 M.P.H. Due to the large number of people in camp, please drive at a slower speed and use caution when driving on the roads near the camporee area. Slow down on gravel roads. “One Scout’s life is worth your time, please slow down.” The speed limit will be strictly enforced.
