Editor’s note—this column is
reserved for news of scouts and
scouting—its success depends
upon the articles turned in each
week for publication—the re
porter for each troop must have
copy in by Tuesday, 4 P.M. each
week—articles are invited from
scouts in every part of Alaska.
A visit to the Boy Scout camp at
Lost Lake on Tuesday found the
boys enjoying outdoor living around
campfiites. All were enthusiastic
about the fine program being car
ried out.
Wednesday evening the tradition
al "Tap Out" ceremony was held.
The District committee and many
parents were in attendance. This
ceremony, the Order of the Arrow,
and honorary Boy Scout organiza
tion. was most impressive.
Tomorrow’s program will include j
an afternoon of aquatic sports. The •
waterfront program promises to be
well worth a visit by families of
the Scouts. Tomorrow night a Court
of Honor will be held and merit
badges presented.
On Saturday the first group of
campers will check out and the
camp will be readied for the "sec
ond weekers.”
The largest enrollment in Fair
banks Scouting history is expected
this year at Lost Lake Scout Camp.
Registered at the popular scouting
camp headquarters are 98 scouts. ,
The troops enrolled for the second
week will bring the total to ap
proximately 185.
The boys are experiencing a "real” '
camping tour as there is no mess
hall—they are cooking on troop
basis.
Friday evening a Court of Honor
•will be held. A cordial invitation is
extended to all parents. Cars can
drive to the lake's edge—a trail
leads to the camp or the less hardy
may "halloo" for a boat.
