40 Cubs Attend Week -end
Camp at Inverhuron Site
BY AKELA
Last Friday evening the Cubs
of 1st Wingham Packs left for a
week -end at the District Scout
Camp at Inverhuron. Gather-
ing at the Scout House, the
Cubs were transported by cars
provided by parents and friends
and tents and large luggage
were taken in truck provided by
Walden Transport.
On arrival the Cubs found
they were to become Indian
Braves for their stay at Camp
Martyn and their camp was to
be a Council of Tribes: Chief
of the Algonquin Tribe was
Hugh Sinnamon, Chief Paul
Fleury of the Iroquois, Chief
Brian MacKay of the Hurons,
Chief Don Rintoul of the Crises,
Chief Dave Crothers of the
Apaches, Chief Brian Forsyth •
of the Ojibways, and Chief Ted
Ahara of the Mohawks. Chief
of the Council of Tribes was
Cubmistress Adelaide Ahara,
ably assisted by Bob Ahara, who
stayed at the camp to help out.
Cubmistress Louise Loyd also
assisted with camp, as did sev-
eral members of the Auxiliary
who travelled to Camp Martyn
to assist with meals and dishes.
Mrs. J. Tiffin, Mrs. R. Perrott
and Mrs. 11. Schipper went up
on Saturday and Mrs. FI, Ait-
cheson, Mrs. J. Tiffin and Mrs,
11, Schipper on Sunday,
There were 40 Cubs, four
Scouts who assisted as junior
leaders, and five senior lead-
ers. While the weather threat-
ened to dampen the spirits of
the camp, this proved imposs-
ible for the boys settled in to a
wonderful week -Vial of fun,
study, swimming and tilt good
fellowship of liviess together as
a large group. For many of
the Cubs this was reser first
year at Camp, but all thorough-
ly enjoyed the new experience.
On arrival Friday evening,
I3ob Ahara and Dou Lloyd as-
sisted in putting up tents and
settling the tribes into their
campsites, The opening Grand
Howl and prayers held on the
n , Ad-
elaide
d, taken by Chief d-
elaide Ahara, An evening
snack was enjoyed in the din-
ing hall before bed. Even
though the wind flapped the
canvas and rustled rhe trees, all
slept well.
On Saturday morning the
weather was clear hut very cool
and following flag -break and
opening prayers the boys ga-
thered for a hearty breakfast,
then settled down to competing
with the other tribes m making
their own particular area the
most attractive. The ideas and
finished designs were most ori-
ginal. One tribe chose to er-
ect a canopy over its tent en-
trance with rustic poles and
cedar boughs, and inscribed
the tribal name on the circle
of stones in front of the en*
trance. Another designed an
arch of evergreens, and stone
pathway leading into the tent.
A railing of boughs lashed with
evergreen branches, and rustic
arch led into a third tribe's
home. One used soft green
cedar boughs and larger branch-
es to change the plain, tent
front into an artistic design. So
each vied with the other, and
as it was too cold to go down
swimming this activity com-
pleted the morning,
Fire lighting instruction,
handicrafts in the forst ofnlak-
ing an Indian headpiece to be
worn at Council Fire that eve-
ning concluded the daytime ac-
tivities, Ganges followed the
supper time. flake -up time
produced an amazing assort-
rnent of costutnes and Chief
Sinnamon organized and pro-
vided instruments for the Indian
hand which played for the tri-
bal procession and entertained
the Council. Chief Louise
Lloyd, in charge of the Indian
Council program, led a sing-
song, while to the singing of
"Fires Burning", Assistant Cub -
master Charlie Kennedy set a
torch to the large fire which
had been laid in the centre of
the compound. Chiefs of the
tribes led their braves in skits,
followed by a fascinating story
of the Ojib,vay i.ldcan tribe of
old at Thiiuder Bay. Chef
Sinnamon finished his story be-
side the leaping flames of the
Council Fire and then explain-
ed to the boys that this was a
true story and the places nam-
ed they could possibly see some
day. Chief Adelaide Ahara was
christened with her Indian
name, which translated means
Bright Eyes, and thanked the
tribes for the wonderful tribute
and the program in which They
had taken part. At the close
of the Council Fire Chief Ahara
took prayers and tee tribesrnov-
ed to the dining hall in proces-
