Once again, Hudson Liberty Council will be hosting our biennial Caporall at
Liberty State Park in Jersey City, NJ. This year the event will be held on
June 7,8, and 9. The Camporall is an opportunity not only to camp in an
unusual spot in the inner city, but for one with the most amazing view of
the New York City skyline you can see out of your tent flap.
This year's Camporall will be based on an Olympic theme because the
Olympic Torch will pass through Liberty State Park one week later on its
way to Atlanta. Programs for Cubs, Scouts, and Explorers will be run and
participation awards will be available to all. Individual, Patrol/Den/Crew,
and Unit competitions will allow for a plethora of opportunities.
The Camporall is open to Cub Packs, Scout Troops, Explorer Posts, and
Sea Explrorer Ships (docking will be available). Those wishing to extend
their trip can arrange to visit Liberty Science Center, a hands-on science
and technology museum located within the park, on Friday or Sunday.
Point your Web browser at http://www.lsc.org/ to find out more. Also
available is the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Ferry service runs from
the park to both regularly.
If your interested in attending, you can contact DE Gary Price at Hudson
Liberty Council (201)659-2810 or email me (jmillerjr@lsfcu.org). Don't miss
out on a rare opportunity like this.
