The boys work around camp on Saturday and can participate in program areas during the afternoon free of charge! Saturday lunch is provided. What is Beaver Day? This is a chance for your unit to improve our summer camp facilities and enjoy a taste of what's to come this summer at camp. Guess What? It's completely free! That's right, no charge at all. We are giving units the opportunity to camp in the same campsite they use during the summer this weekend, (if possible). Help improve your site, or participate in one of the projects around camp to prepare for the 2009 camping season. The camp will provide you tents and cots for setup Friday evening during check-in starting at 6:00 pm. All your unit has to do is provide you own food and equipment needs for your stay. All we ask is you give a few hours of service to the camp on Saturday morning. In return, Scouts and leaders can take advantage of serveral open program areas Saturday afternoon run by summer camp staff. Also, if you have any leaders in your unit who are electricians, plumbers, carpenters, etc. please let us know, so we can have materials on-hand for larger and skilled projects around camp. http://www.minsitrails.com/camping/CubScout/FamilyCamping/BeaverWeekend.asp Jambo 100 - Save the Date!!!
