Reminds me of the story of the origin of one of our camps' name: Camp
Rokilio. It comes from the names of four ancient tribes who lived there:
the Rotary tribe, the Kiwanis tribe, the Lions tribe and the Optimist tribe

I had been active in our council for several years and knew one of the
District names was Nopi-Soki. I had always presumed, though no one ever
said so, that it was some native american name or phrase. Then one day it
just hit hit me, the Nopi-Soki district was in NOrth PIerce County and SOuth
KIng County.
