Welcome to the campfire!!!!!
-
As a youth, I was active in OA. Thoroughly enjoyed it. My troop was not the best in terms of outdoor activities and such. I camped more at OA events than with my troop.
OA can be a good way to keep older youth active in scouting.

And welcome to the virtual campfire.

It appears that the council is shedding itself of several camps in the Puget Sound area.
Perhaps a scouter in that area can chime in with what they perceive the real effects will be.

You are correct. That should be 1983. And that is me in the back near the right hand side.
Glad to help solve the mystery!!!!!

You are correct!!!
I can't wait to get back to the home camp!!!

Yep, I remember you, but that was before the title "uncle" I was the quartermaster/trading post manager. I think that was your first year as a DIR. I think you were trading post manager the year before as you showed me the ropes.
Belzer completely ruled!!!!! I hope to make it back that way sometime for a visit. Probably in 2020 for the grand ritual / 100 year anniversary of Firecrafter. That should be a blast.
Did they do much for the 100 year anniversary of the camp?

Welcome to the campfire! Good to have another fan of Camp Belzer around!
That was my home camp for my OA chapter. I staffed there in 1983. Great place!

@WonderBoy Big thumbs up for Camp Ransburg! Premier Scout camp in the Midwest! Went there as a scout 3 times, then a summer on staff (1980)
Staffed Belzer cub camp for a year (1983). Attended there as a cub! Great place. Belzer was home camp for my chapter of OA! Hope to get back that way some time!

Yep, Firecrafter was an early camp program like OA or tribe of Mic O Say.
The council incorporated OA but didn't get rid of Firecrafter. Great program. Challenging and fun. Lotsa history in the council.
Its worth it to take a look at the link and browse around in that site!

Badges aren't going away so t-shirts don't seem practical. Unless you're suggesting that we do away with badges, too.
I will apologize for this in advance.
