Atkinson Foundation Aids 'Orphan' Scouts Situated in the heart of Halibur- ton, Camp. Kenabi, a 4,150-acre game preserve, owned by the To- ronto Metr itan Boy association, is to become head- quarters for the 'summer or- phans" or leaderless Scouts in the province. FOUNDATION GRANT Development of this new camp- ing program, announced today by F. J. Chalk, metropolitan area Jresident is made possible by a ,000 grant from The Atkinson! Charitable = Foundation. Spread over five years, the grant permits immediate organization and ap- pointment of permanent staff to supervise what is called its "com- posite camp' project. Along the shores of Ken-ne-Big Lake, things are progressing at a feverish pitch, but there is much building to complete. Because of this the maximum capacity will not be reached this coming summer, but in 1954 the camp will be able to accommodate 1, Scouts during its two months of operation. "Summer camp, to more than 60,000 Ontario Boy Scouts, is the big adventure of the year," said Mr. Chalk in announcing the grant. "But thousands of these boys have been denied this camp- | ing venture because of the scarcity of trained volunteer leaders. Now, | thanks to the generous contribu-| tion of The Atkinson Charitable | Foundation, we will be able to in- stitute this camping project and hire permanent staff to supervise the activities. I means the "As general chairman of this] ear's financial campaign of the oronto Boy Scouts association, | I am deeply grateful to the At- kinson Charitable Foundation for | the splendid financial assistance they are gi to the associa- tion," said H. LL. Enman, dent of the Bank of Nova Scotia. "The Foundation's generous ant," he added, 'will enable arge numbers of boys, who would pot otherwise be able to do so, to enjoy the camping facilities of the association's fine camp in the Haliburton Highland." Scouts' | reams | of these youngsters will be real- | ized." presi- | | TDEAL FOR CAMPING { Fred J. Finlay, metropolitan | commissioner of the Boy Scouts | association, said: "Camping forms a most impor- tant part of the program of the Boy Scouts association and it is our constant endeavor to increase the number of boys going to camp, It was for this reason that the To- ronto Boy Scouts association ac- quired their present property in the Haliburton Highlands. This prop- erty provides an ideal setting for | summer camping and enables us to | further our program of teaching |boys a love of nature and the great outdoors. "We in the association are in- deed grateful to The Atkinson Foundation for their generous as- sistance, which will enable us to provide adequate. leadership for a much-enlarged camping program. With the Foundation's timely help, we look forward in the future to having more and more boys take advantage of the fine facilities | which our Haliburton camp site | has to offer." | It is a well-known fact that | outdoor life is the basis of all | scouting and, in addition to a | number of actively rated scout | camps throughout e province, the metropolitan association has provided two types of camping to meet its own special needs. Crook- ed Creek Camp, situated on 100 acres, 15 miles east of Toronto, is operated the year-round. It is used | for weekend camping and hikes with supervision supplied for the safety of the patrols. During 1952, 12,000 camping days were record- 'ed at this camp. 15,000 IN AREA Camp Kenabi until now has been host only to troop-sponsored scouts, and last year entertained 1,853 campers, representing a very small percentage of the local scout population. In the Toronto area alone, there are more than 500 units with a population in excess of 15,000. | The proposed new composite | camp fills the gap between these two programs by providing trained personnel to supervise the activi- ties of leaderless units. Troop-spon- sored camping will be encouraged will have first call on such eamp- ing facilities, the Kenabi compo- site camp will cater to Scouts from anywhere in the province should accommodation be avail- able. "Our ultimate goal is to provide camping for every Scout," said W. H. J. Tisdale, provincial com- caps has been the lack of trained | leaders. The composite camp proj- | ect is the answer to this, and the provincial association is grateful for inclusion in the Foundation's support of this camping experi- ment." WANT MORE TO CAMP "Toronto, during the past few seasons, has recorded approxi- mately 42,000 boy camp days year- ly under the old program," said Herbert B. Greenaway, executive commissioner, "and while this to- tal is regarded In some quarters as a satisfactor record, the asso- ciation has long been concerned about the many boys who do not camp, "It is true," he said, "that only about 35 per cent of Toronto's troops provide these camping fig- ures. There are troops that do not camp even on weekends, and many reasons can be given for this. There are volunteer leaders who run excellent Scout meetings in the various city churches, but who cannot get away with their boys to camp. Other volunteer leaders, while they would like to camp with missioner, "but one of the handi-|all » their unit, feel they must share their holidays with their families. On the other hand, there are lead- ers, who, because they have had | little camping experience, do not | feel qualified to take a group to camp, and lastly, there are the few leaders who have no inclina- tion to take their boys to camp at "Under the proposed composite camp program,' added Mr. Green- away, "the association will be able to meet this problem and provide supervised camping for 200 boys each week. Leaders who for vari- ous reasons cannot take their oops to camp will be able to send their boys to the composite camp at Kenabi and rest assured that adequate provision is made for the health, safety and happi- ness of the youngsters. CITES POST-WAR PROBLEMS "'One of the problems that has faced city scout officials,' he con- tinued, "particularly since the war, is the ever-increasing number of parents who find it necessary for both to work to make ends meet. Without school to occupy them this means that many thousands of lads become summer orphans left to their own devices. The many so- cial agencies are doing their best to meet this problem Vacation Bible schools, day camps and play- ground groups do much to help and Toronto scout officials are anxious to contribute something as well, particularly for the young- | er boy who seems most in need. "The association has not had either the facilities or the person- nel to take care of such lads in our present camping program. But now with the help of the Rotary club of Toronto, which has pro- vided the necessary buildings, and with provision of adequate and qualified personnel made pos- sible by The Atkinson Charitable foundation, we will be able to care for an estimated 200 additional campers each week for the cost to them of food only. This should add another 12,000 boy days to To- ronto's camping record. "Also," concluded Mr. way, "it is believed that the benefits of this experimental camp- ing project will extend far beyond | the mere attendance. Lads who do not at present camp will, from such an experience in the compo- site camp, go back to their re- spective units and encourage troop and patrol camping. this could lead to our long-range objective of depriving no Scout the oppor- tunity to camp and denying him the benefit of such communal liv- ing and outdoor experience in Scout lore."

The impact tossed him under the vehicle's wheels. Greena- | rear TO REPAIR CASA LOMA TORONTO (CP)--Old and stately Casa Loma will not be left to crumble after all, Board of control said Wednesday it will set aside $50,000 for repairing the stone castle in the next two years.
