Summer Camp
Dear Berlin Heights Scouters,
Additional scouts did vote.
We now have had over 50% of the scouts on the roster vote.
The new votes split right down the middle.
So by one vote we will be attending Camp Firelands.
I wish we were not so evenly divided. Based on how close the vote was I know that there would have been some people upset regardless of how the vote ended up.
My personal thoughts are that there were pluses and minuses to either choice and I did not have a strong preference.
The biggest concern I had when we opened it up to a vote was this exact situation that might keep a scout or two from attending camp. Getting as many scouts as possible to experience summer camp is goal we all share.
Based on what scouts have told me summer camp is one of the best experiences in scouting. Let's look at this as an opportunity for a new camp experience. I know most of us have spent quite a bit of time at Firelands over the years but summer camp will be different.
Right now pencil in the week after the fourth of July. I would like to attend camp with Troop 214. That is their tentative week right now but due to some coming changes at that troop they have not formally set a week yet but it will be finalzed in the next month.
I would like to thank everyone for their help with scouting. We had good turn out helping scouts with eagle projects over the last month.
Best in Scouting,
Don Leonard
