No Dampening
Of Spirits at
Brownie Camp
Although Kodiak’s famous ‘'li
quid sunshine’ fell during a part
of the time, it failed to dampen
the high spirits of the girls at the
Brownie Scouts camp of the
Northern Lights. Approximately
75 Brownies attended the camp
which convened June 2 through
June 6.
Despite the rain, the girls’ en
thusiasm did not waver, largely
due to the variable types of ac
tivities, as well as the excellent
facilities made available by Ad
miral Arnold McKechnie and Cap
tain R. W. Jacoby.
The Brownies were taught the
use of their scout knives; how to
prepare, tend and extinguish a
campfire, and enjoyed the results
of their individual cook-outs. A
variety of hand-crafts were pro
vided from which the various un
its chose their own work projects
for the day.
Regardless of inclement weath
er, the girls went on nature-study
hikes and used their treasure
finds, such as shells, pebbles,
feathers and driftwood, to make
their own earrings. They used
local leaves and ferns to make
spatter paint creations, and en
joyed other hand-craft such as
hand laced beanies, stick picture
frames, plaque making, hot plate
holders and similar crafts.
Those who helped with the
camp included Mrs. Genevieve
Layman, director; Mrs. Bobby
Black, craft counselor, and Mrs.
Margaritha Jones, camp cook.
Leaders and helpers were the
Mesdames Vincent, Fitzwater,
Kolfchorst, Kurrasch, Ulrich, Pat
ton, Troyer, Cannon, Lawhead,
Acheson, Malerich, Fenner, Alton,
Kulberg, Garvey, Belleau, Lucas,
Hoover, Miller, Reddick, Newton,
Hall, Bemis, Wright and Tarvin.
Also helping were Betty Weir and
Lois Schiefen, camp nurses.
Sheri Frey, Elaine Davis, Gail
Zieba, Jane Dean, Claudie Hoov
er, Vickie Layman, Vickie Faust,
Melanie Draper, Connie Trent and
Marlene Morris, older Girl Scouts,
were available to help wherever
possible. Also on hand were a few
Boyi Scouts to give asistance with
special chores in and about camp.
“A big 'Thank You’ is extended
to everyone in the community who
helped make the Brownie Camp
successful,” stated a spokesman
for the camp committee.” A spe
cial note of appreciation is ex
tended to Capt. Smith, Capt. Pink
ham, Lt. Smith, Dr. A. Holmes
Johnson and Dr. R. Holmes John
son, who gave free health exam
inations, and to the many who
worked so industriously to make
ready the buildings, helped with
other kinds of work and gave do
nations of materials and craft sup
plies.”
