A week of volunteered sweat has brought major progress on the repair to Saffran Lodge.  Camp Ranger Andy Anderson has great photographs and news of this badly needed repair posted in the bulletin board.

This project is one of many, undertaken by the Bear Paw Camp Engineers over the course of the year.   This group of dedicated volunteers applies their special construction and engineering skills and knowledge to build and repair facilities around camp.  If you want to learn more about joining the camp engineers, start by contacting Andy directly or joining the conversation in the Ranger’s Corner

Summer camp 2010 is still 250 some odd days in the future (I think somebody, somewhere is counting), now is the time to start assembling the 2010 Bear Paw Staff.  The Bay-Lakes Council is now accepting applications for Scouts who will be at least 15 years old by 1 June 2010 to serve at Bay-Lakes Council camps.  Applications received this fall will be selected for interviews to be held during the winter holiday season.

If you are interested and want to learn what it takes to become a member of the Bear Paw Staff, be sure to read our Summer Camp Staff page. Or better yet, become a member and post your question on the Bulletin Board.  That place is crawling with seasoned staff members who would be glad to answer your questions and help you with your decision.

We look forward to hearing from you.  Good Luck!
