Returning Summer 2016

“ Native American V

Jim Sawgrass is a native Floridian and a member of the Musk- ogee Creek Indi-

an Tribe. He served on the Florida Indian Council from 1991 to 1995. Sawgrass

has been sharing his knowledge of the Southeastern Native American tribes for

over 25 years.

As a child, he was always interested in history, build - ing forts, and explor-

ing the woods and swamps. The out - doors was always, and continues to be a

big part of his life.

He became more involved with his Native American heritage by attending pow-

wows, Native festivals, and historical reenactments. He learned more about Na-

tive culture and history from the many elders, outdoors-men, and reenactors he

was surrounded by. He became an Eagle Scout and applies his scouting skills to

this day.

In 1988, Sawgrass began presenting programs professionally on Native Ameri-

can history and started the “Deep Forest Historical Native Amer- ican Pro-

grams”. Since then, he has performed at places like schools, Powwows, state and

national parks, Disney, EPCOT, Sea World, New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festi-

vals and many other places around the U.S. www.jimsawgrass.com

Native American Village Programs

Come experience the only Native American Village in the Southeast at Camp La-No-Che. Immerse yourself

in the Native American culture by walking through a recreated Native American Village complete with Native

Trading Post, Dance Arbor, Tepees, Shooting Stations, Native Cooking Area, Native American Museum,

Chickee Teaching Shelters, and much, more. The Native American village staff will take you on a journey back

in time throughout your stay at Camp La-No-Che.

Participate in merit badge programs by taking American Cultures and American Heritage and learn about the variety

of cultures that exist in America today how they interact with one another. Archaeology and Indian Lore are for

those Scouts that want a taste of a time long ago. Scouts taking these merit badges will have the chance to dive into

the history of ancient peoples, and also dig up some of the relics they have left behind. In Wilderness Survival

Scouts will learn about survival techniques that they can use in the real life, and have the chance to put what they

have learned to use by spending a night under the stars in shelters they have created.

Are these programs not advanced enough for you? Well check out our Tracking, and Woodsman Pro- grams for

older Scouts. In tracking learn how to find animals out in the wilderness at La-No-Che, and the clues that they

leave behind. Woodsman I is an outdoor survival skill program for Scouts. Learn Native American survival skills

and practices, primitive weapons history, fire making, history of Seminoles, hide tanning, and flint napping.

The Native American Village has many programs going on throughout the week a well. Many of these

programs take place during troop time activities, and give you a taste of the merit badges, and advanced pro-

grams. These activities include having a troop bean shooter war, participating in jam session night, viewing

the la-cross demonstration, taking part in model building, walking through the museum, taking a pottery class,

listening during story telling night, shooting and throwing Native weapons or coming to the Native Ameri-

can Pow-Wow on Thursday for family night.

All merit badge skills are offered in daily sessions. However, extra time will be needed to complete some merit badges. Other merit badges do not take a full week and two merit badges may be offered during the same session.

Scouts will learn basic skills and complete rank advancement. During the other three mer-it badge periods it is suggested they work on First Aid, Swimming, and Cooking. New Scouts not participating in Trailblazers may also take numerous Aquatic merit badges if they have Swimming.

While in Adventure Camp older Scouts can climb the Alpine Tower, or drive A.T.V.’s.

Adventure Expeditions Camp La-No-Che has adventure expeditions for units to enjoy camp and some exciting adventures. You can pick one of our summer camp high-adventure expeditions, or meet with the Assistant Camp Director of Pro- gram to custom plan an adventure, or participate in our normal summer camp adventures, such as Attraction Adventures, canoeing, caving, climbing, leadership, sports, trail biking, and many more adventures. Your unit will have an opportunity to meet new friends, enjoy the outdoors, and experience some new adventures. For the Adventure Expeditions, one or two Scouts from a unit may come as Provisional Scouts. If a unit sends three or more Scouts to a program, the unit must provide an adult leader. Also, a unit may schedule one of these programs just for their unit if they meet the minimum requirements. All the programs are subject to changes due to circumstanc-es beyond our control. If a change should be necessary, we will notify you as soon as possible. Also, each Adventure Expedition has a minimum of 6 Scouts and a maximum of 14 Scouts. If a program does not meet the minimum num-

ber required, a Scout may transfer to another program. Call today to enroll your unit and start planning your adven-ture. Poseidon's Odyssey Camp La-No-Che is pleased to provide an odyssey like no other.

Trailblazer Program

The Trailblazer program will be held daily in 2 two-hour sessions (9:00 am until 10:50 am or 1:30 pm until 3:20 pm).

Scouts who participate will become versed in the Boy Scout ideals and patrol methods. Scouts with less than six

months as Boy Scouts are encouraged to participate in the Trailblazer program. Three hours are left open for the

youth to participate in merit badge sessions that interest them.

This program will introduce them to basic skills required for advancement to First Class. All areas covered will be

signed off on a special Trailblazer form. It is the responsibility of the Scoutmaster to test the Scout when he returns

home and then sign him off when he has proven that he knows the skill. Scouts who have been in the Scouting pro-

gram for six months or more and need only certain items for advancement (i.e. knots, compass work, basic first aid

skills, etc.) may find that their needs can be accomplished during troop activity time with the appropriate program ar-

ea (e.g., Aquatics). Feel free to set up required instruction with area directors at the beginning of the week. Scout lead-

ers are needed who have some free time and can volunteer helping to enhance program instruction. Please sign up

Sunday at the SM/SPL meeting.

Hiker of La-No-Che Hiking the trails of Camp La-No-Che at The Leonard and Marjorie Williams Family Scout Reservation can be a re-warding experience for Scouts and Scouter’s alike. The Ecology department maintains and oversees the trail system throughout camp. Before starting any hike, please notify the staff at the Ecology Lodge for directions, hints on changes and wildlife, and to sign the log book. Report back to Ecology Lodge upon completion of each hike. To be-come a Hiker of La-No-Che and earn a special patch, one must hike three trails, one of which must be hiked at night. The patch may be purchased at the trading post.

Big Stump Trail This trail is a tradition at La-No-Che. Expect a muddy two hour walk through the Blackwater Swamp to view an old first growth cypress stump and many natural areas of interest. To take this hike, report to the Ecology Lodge with two leaders and ample time to complete the hike before dark. Weekly changes in times may be invoked as water levels, staff schedules and weather require. Wear old clothes and closed-toe shoes, preferably all items to throw away after the hike. Nobody comes back in clean clothes and the mud usually won’t wash out completely. Those who make it to Big Stump and back fulfill the requirements for a special patch available for purchase from the trading post.

Cat eye Trails The Cat eye Red Trail is marked with red reflectors and the Cat eye Blue Trail with blue reflectors which the Scouts follow. The route uses existing roads and trails through the east side of camp to provide a challenge for everyone. Re-member to bring your flashlights, look up and keep a sharp eye out for the red cat eyes. These trails were blazed by the Ecology Staff and is about an hour long. Remember your flashlights and keep an eye out for the red/blue cat eyes.

Sulfur Springs Trail This spring is one of the natural wonders of La-No-Che which is being preserved and protected. Because of this pro-tection, you can experience this wonderful ecosystem which unfolds before you. Please do not damage plants and trees along the way, but take lots of pictures. Also, remember that the spring is not a swimming hole.

Trapper Creek Nature Trail This is an adventure in wetland forests and creeks that sometimes flow under two bridges. The wood ticks and mos-quitoes may be a problem, so bring your repellent and spray your ankles. Hikers may see close to half of Camp La-No-Che’s plant species on this trail along with many different types of animals. This trail will focus on identification, making it an ideal resource for Nature and Forestry Merit Badges and Trailblazer requirements.

Section V- Provisional Program

Provisional Troop Camping

Camp La-No-Che provides a Provisional Troop with a Scoutmaster and volunteer assistants for all eight weeks of

camp. The Scoutmaster will be hired by the Central Florida Council and will not hold any other camp positions. This

provides an opportunity for boys to attend camp who are unable to attend camp with their troop, who wish to attend

more than one week of camp, or who are attending specialty camp without a troop.

Specialty weeks and the Provisional Troop are not intended to be alternatives to troop camping. Any troop sending

four or more boys to the provisional troop or a specialty week will be expected to provide an adult to assist with lead-

ership. Questions concerning this issue may be directed to the camp office. An application is provided on the next

page .

Thursday night is parents’ night. For a $7 charge, you are welcome to have dinner with your son and see a special

program. Cub Scouts in uniform eat free. You may purchase dinner upon arrival at the Camp Office next to the main

parking area. Thank you for letting your son have the opportunity to attend camp.

We are limiting the size of merit badge courses in order to provide proper instruction. Camp is now accepting pre-

registration for merit badges and special skills courses. Courses will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis. This

will help ensure that the Scouts (and leaders) know the Scouts’ schedules, and will also give the summer camp staff an

idea of what the demands are for various merit badge courses. Please indicate the merit badge course by name under

the appropriate time. Keep in mind that some courses last for more than one hour. Please mail this form to the camp

office as early as possible prior to arrival at camp, starting March 1, 2016, because class size is limited.

Section IV- Adult Information Adult Leadership in Camp Each troop must have one registered Scouter who is 21 years of age or older and one registered Scouter who is at least 18 years of age as their camp leaders. Although not recommended, the camp leaders may rotate during the week. In this case, the new leader must check in at the Camp Office and the departing leader must remain until his relief arrives. We only have campsite building quarters for two leaders from your, other leaders should expect platform tent quarters.

Scout Leadership in Camp The troop’s Senior Patrol Leader should give leadership to the patrols. This is an excellent opportunity to develop leadership, as the camp program will rely on the Senior Patrol Leader and Patrol Leaders for several camp-wide activ-ities. Camp information is distributed at the daily SPL Meetings at 12:30pm at the Williams family pavilion, and the SPL can ask questions about Commissioner’s Award points, camp improvements, equipment, and discuss problems his troop is experiencing.

Camperships The Central Florida Council has limited camperships available for Central Florida Council Scouts who need assis-tance earning their fee to attend Camp La-No-Che summer camp. Application for this assistance may be made by us-ing the form in Section IX. Funds are provided by private donors in the community and are limited to those who are truly in need. We encourage you to make application before May 1st. It is our desire that no Scout be denied the op-portunity to attend camp due to financial circumstances. If a Scout is provided a campership and does not attend, the campership will not be refunded, but will be returned to the campership fund.

Out of Council Troops In accordance with BSA national policy, troops from other councils must have a letter from their home council and a tour permit granting them permission to attend Camp La-No-Che. This letter should be turned in with the troop physi-cals while completing the check-in process.

Summer Camp Fees All fees may be paid with cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express.

Scout Fee Refer to Section I for Scout fees.

These thunderstorms frequently produce dangerous lightning. Please re-mind Scouts of the danger of lightning and discuss precautions to take during the storm. All outdoor programs are canceled during lightning storms. Arrangements are made to make up work missed due to canceled classes.

Boy Scouts of America Smoke-Free Policy Boy Scouts of America policy is to provide a smoke-free environment for all Scouting participants.

A fax machine is available, so any forgotten forms must be faxed prior to the last transport adult leaving camp or the camper will be sent home, the number is 352-669-7636. A resident Health Officer is available at all times to deal with accidents and sickness.

Safety Rules • Closed shoes must be worn at all times. Open shoes, flip flops, or sandals may be used between campsite and latrine. • All vehicles must be parked in the main parking lot, riding on the tailgate of a car/pickup truck is prohibited. • Use of alcoholic beverages/controlled substances are not permitted. All who violate this rule must leave. • No fireworks or privately owned firearms are permitted on council-owned property. In the event of a camp-wide emergency (i.e., fire, tornado, etc.), the siren will sound. Upon hearing the siren, all personnel will assemble at their respective wave flag poles and wait for instructions. • One fire is permitted per campsite in the fire ring. Do not use pine cones, pine needles, Spanish moss, kerosene, or gasoline in the fire. While burning, the fire must be attended at all times. Before leaving the fire, water must be used until the fire is completely out and the ashes are cool. No flames or fires of any kind are permitted in tents. Cooking must be done at least twenty feet away from tents and buildings. Propane and liquid fuels may only be used under supervision of adults. No gasoline is to be used. Fuel is to be stored away from tents and buildings. Since raccoons can lift lids and open simple latches, food should be stored in containers with secure lids. Stick, roll-on, or pump insect repellent and deodorant is preferred, and aerosol should be avoided if possible. If aerosol of any kind must be used, it must be used outside of tents and under adult supervision. • All bicycle riders must wear safety helmets, and extension cords may be used only inside buildings. • Camouflage is highly discouraged at Camp La-No-Che.

Valuables The Leonard and Marjorie Williams Family Scout Reservation management and staff will not be responsible for indi-vidual camper or troop valuables while at Camp La-No-Che. Use these tips to avoid any losses: 1. Advise Scouts to bring as few valuables as possible and encourage Scouts to use locked trunks. 2. Organize a troop bank system with the leader as the banker. DO NOT carry large amounts of money. 3. The camp leader should bring a lock box with them. 4. Move your unit to activities as a group. Never leave one or more Scouts at the campsite alone. 5. Advise your Scouts not to walk through another unit’s campsite. 6. When using the pool or boats, lock all valuables in the campsite or in vehicles to ensure their safety.

Vehicles To protect our camp and the Scouts, we ask that all vehicles be parked in the main parking lot. On Sunday and Satur-day, vehicles will be allowed to transport gear to and from the campsite.

2016 Merit Badge Registration Form This form should be used only if not using on-line merit badge registration

We are limiting the size of merit badge courses in order to provide proper instruction. Camp is now accepting pre-registration for merit badges and special skills courses. Courses will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis. This will help ensure that the Scouts (and leaders) know the Scouts’ sched-ules, and will also give the summer camp staff an idea of what the demands are for various merit badge courses. Please indicate the merit badge course by name under the appropriate time. Keep in mind that some courses last for more than one hour. Please mail this form to the camp office as early as possible prior to arrival at camp, starting March 1, 2016, because class size is limited.

Unit Swim Classification Record

Swim tests outside of summer camp may be administered by any adult leader who holds a current training card in BSA Aquatics Supervision or BSA Lifeguard. This is the individual’s swim classification as of the test date. Any change in swim status after this date would require a reclassification test by the Aquatics Director. Swim tests should be given every year. Please refer to the Guide to Safe Scouting or Aquatics Supervision Manual for test administration. When swim tests are conducted away from camp, the Aquatics Director shall reserve the authority to review or retest.

Swim Classification Procedures The swim classification of individuals participating in a Boy Scouts of America activity is a key element in both Safe Swim Defense and Safety Afloat. The swim classification tests should be renewed annually, preferably at the begin-ning of each outdoor season. Traditionally, the swim classification test has only been conducted at a long term sum-mer camp, however, there is no restriction that this be the only place the test can be conducted. It may be more useful to conduct the swim classification prior to a unit going to summer camp. All persons participating in BSA aquatics are classified according to swimming ability. The classification tests and test procedures have been developed and structured to demonstrate a skill level consistent with the circumstances in which the individual will be in the water (e.g., the Swimmer’s Test demonstrates the minimum level of swimming ability for recreational and instructional activity in a confined body of water with a maximum 12-foot depth.)

ADMINISTRATION OF SWIM CLASSIFICATION TEST

(THE LOCAL COUNCIL CHOOSES ONE OF THESE OPTIONS):

OPTION A (at camp):

The swim classification test is completed the first day by Camp Aquatics personnel.

OPTION B (Council conducted/council controlled): The council controls the swim classification process by predetermined dates, locations and approved person-nel to serve as test administrators. When the unit goes to summer camp, each individual will be issued a buddy tag

under the direction of the Camp Aquatics Director for use at the camp.

OPTION C (At unit level with council-approved aquatics resource people): The swim classification test done at a unit level should be conducted by one of the following council-approved re-source people: Aquatics Instructor, BSA; Aquatics Cub Supervisor; BSA Lifeguard; BSA Swimming & Water Res-cue; or other lifeguard, swimming instructor, etc. When the unit goes to summer camp, each individual will be is-sued a buddy tag under the direction of the Camp Aquatics Director for use at the camp.

TO THE TEST ADMINISTRATOR The various components of each test evaluate the several skills essential to the minimum level of swimming ability. Each step of the test is important and should be followed as listed below: SWIMMER’S TEST: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, and begin swimming. Swim 75 yards in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: side stroke, breast stroke, trudge, or crawl; then swim 25 yards using an easy resting back stroke. The 100 yards must be swum continuously and include at least one sharp turn. After com-pleting the swim, rest by floating. BEGINNER’S TEST: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, swim 25 feet on the surface, stop, urn sharply, resume swimming as before, and return to starting place.

Follow Camp La-No-Che Online! In addition to our traditional website, Camp La-No-Che is keeping up with the times and we are on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram! Make sure you like or follow us on all three to always stay on top of what is going on at camp, whether you’re here or not! During the summer, we’ll use our twitter account to help keep you updated on program alerts. Our official hashtag for the summer will be #LaNoChe2016 (if you’re not sure what this means, just ask your scouts) and we hope that you’ll use it to share all the pictures you take with us! We recognize the importance of keeping our scouts involved with what is going on at camp and not glued to their phones the whole time but, like at Jamboree, we ask that you consider allowing your more responsible scouts (who won’t lose or damage their phones) to bring and use their phones to share their camp adventures with their friends back home. Depending on your cell carrier there is limited cell coverage around camp, frequently better coverage around the lakefront, and there is pub-lic Wi-Fi at the dining hall and a few other places around downtown camp. A password and usage policies for the Wi-Fi will be shared with you at the Sunday afternoon leaders meeting. Along with the Camp La-No-Che accounts, Central Florida Council is online too! Our council has an official Facebook and Twitter page, along with various other accounts for our districts. Make sure to check out all of our official accounts below!
