' Ask any boy what he associates with Scouts and nine times out of ten the answer will be "Camping!" Scouting and camping are practically synonymous and nearly- every boy who joins Scouts does so because he sees himself out in the woods; frying bear steaks in front of his bivouac, shooting the rapids, lying snug in bed with his companions as a blizzard lashes the tent, or lazing in front of his. tent waiting for a fish to bite. r - Camping is the life blood of Scouting. It is the romance and adventure of camping that keeps scouting "alive", and keen, and which, perhaps more than anything esle, pro- vides the opportunities to 1p the boys develop into good citizens. He has not known happiness who has not sat in the stillness of the long shadows, with nature's evening chorus, and helped a friend solve a problem. There are few places better than camp where one can come closer to understanding .his fellow man or to understanding the.ways of God. • The Scout Program is carried on in Seaforth, Egmondville and Wal- ton by -the following: SEAFORTH: Scoutmaster Dave Schenck; Assistant Don Wood; Venturer Advisor Adrian DeCoo ; Cubmaster Lloyd Cameron ;*Assistants Marjorie Bridge, Cheryl Muir and Mary Lansink.
