1st Orono Cubs attend Oshawa Camp Samac , If we were to go back to the start of this camp we would have to go back to July, but there are only so many 'things you can plan for winter camp in such a hot and balmy month. Well, so much for that hot and balmy., weather it is now January 3rd and there is plenty of snow on the ground, just right for tobogganing, skiing, winter •treasure hunts and hiking through woods at night without flashlights. Camp Samac was our destination for this outside activity packed weekend. Friday night at 7:30 p.m. was camp arrival time, after the task of choosing bunks and the last minute changes by the leaders, there are 21 cubs ready to go on a long dark, dark hike. Upon returning the boys had mug-up before a blazing fire in the fireplace so they could get warmed up before getting ready for bed. After a story it was into bed and lights out. (Except for those that had eaten carrots for dinner - their keen eyesight allowed them to jump and run around the dorms in the dark while.we leaders had to depend on our trusty flashlights to catch them.) Saturday got under way with tobogganing and skiing right after breakfast and clean up detail. After lunch we did a craft (strawberry mobiles) and then back outside for a treasure hunt, toboggan races and some just plain fun. After dinner and clean up we had a rest by watching watching movies for awhile then a few of the boys put together a couple of skits for our enjoyment. When mug-up was over it was off to bed to be ready for an early rise in the morning. Mr. Don Scott came out Sunday morning to do "Cub Own" (spiritual time) with , us, the boys then got ready and out they went sledding again. The boys went for a hike up to the main office to see the big totem poles, after returning to the cabin again the boys were informed informed what each symbol on the totem means. Lunch is over and we now start the task of packing, .cleaning up and preparing to break camp at 2:00 p.m. I want to thank my leaders - Dave Street and Bob Goodmurphy also Don Scott for helping to get our equipment to camp and returned again, also to our able cooks - Marg Bradley and Jim Green, thanks for the use of your culinary skills for the weekend. A special thanks to Don Scott our Cub "Chaplain". Thanks to everyone who helped in any way to put this camp together.
