Webelos Summer Camp--2010

Primary Presidents/Cub Leaders

Please consider the following Webelos Camp ideas and respond by January 5, 2010:

Camp Naish Webelos Camp--PROS

1. Positive outdoor experience with all staff leaders/resources/equipment/food provided for 3 days

2. PINS earned all at camp

3. Unity created with other Cub Scout Packs

Camp Naish Webelos Camp--CONS

1. Camp Fee--$115

2. 3 BSA trained Webelos leaders need to attend and pay full fee

3. Travel to and from Camp Naish gets tedious and LATE because the LDS scouts do not camp overnight

4. Time spent walking between activities could be used learning

5. Webelos Draw (Jan. 23) does not allow for date of camp to be guaranteed

Webelos SUPER Saturday Activity--alternative to Webelos Camp--PROS

1. FEE--greatly reduced from the $120--approximately--$20

2. Same amount of PINS earned in one 6-hour session

3. No time wasted in travel to and from camp

4. Date/Time/Place is chosen by attendees

Webelos SUPER Saturday Activity--alternative to Webelos Camp--CONS

1. Webelos do not get the "camping" experience with access to boy scout tents

2. Event MUST be organized by Lenexa Cub Leaders of the wards--including ALL resources--teachers--equipment--place--etc

3. Communication and Coordination--WE WILL need a Stake Webelos Camp SPECIALIST to coordinate this one-day camp--

4. Lenexa Stake Primary Presidency WILL not be responsible for this as we are running other camps.

A SUPER SATURDAY ACTIVITY outline used by the Lenexa Ward is attached and is a WONDERFUL resource for the Webelos Lenexa Stake Specialist to use for the Super Saturday, if decided.

Webelos Summer Camp--2009

We had an excellent camp! It wore us out but I think everyone had fun. A special thanks to Sister Castle & Sister Journey for being our leaders and Sister Bishop for coming on such short notice Friday. Below are the list of requirements we did at camp. I did fill out all of the books given to me for the "Pins Completed" Saturday afternoon but if anyone left before 5 their books need to be updated. I did not get to all of the other requirements so feel free to add them to our book. If you missed a day you will need to email me so I can tell you what you missed.

If you have any questions feel free to email me. ~Gigi
