Betty Harney, Cadette unit Leader, helps girls check out bikes before leaving on the 30-mile bike hike that was part of the Kachina Day camp activities for Cadette Scouts. Cadette Scouts waiting to be off are Sherri Grauman, Joy Cope, Barbie Ries and Terry Polka. One of the things Brownie Scouts learn at Day camp is outdoor cooking. And it always tastes so good. Gina Fruscella practices her cooking skills, under the supervision of assistant unit leader, Joanne Dietrich, while hungry fellow Brownies look on. Neither rain nor snow nor any kind of bad weather stops the stalwart mailman, and it doesn't stop the Girl Scouts either! Even a week of wet and generally unstable weather couldn't dampen their spirits or stop the Kachina Girl Scouts from enjoying the fun ad­ venture of Scout Day camp at the H^rrison-Benwell Con­ servation area. The Scouts and their leaders, efficiently following emergncy procedures, braved thun­ derstorms, wash-outs, and even tornado alerts in the true Scout spirit and made the most of the moments of sunshine to enjoy a well rounded outdoor program. Some of the highlights of the week were hiking, outdoor skills such as fire building and knife work, cooking over campfire, flag ceremonies, nature crafts, a sing-a-long with a visiting "guitar lady", and the all camp bonfire program. The popular day camp craft ladies, Artsy and Craftsy, returned this year with a whole new bag of outdoor crafts to the delight of everyone from the ore Only nrers SATURDAY & JULY 12 & 13 K SALE Schick li\jector_ PlusPlatinum J # HARD WOO H'A'RGOA'L1 % ? m / • ® SAVE STICKS t Box of 18-sbars. 6 tasty flavors Our Reg.. 63 20" • 3 Speed BREEZE BOX WINDOW FAN Our Reg. 29.87 Regular PRICE EFFECTIVE WHILE QUANTITIES LAST. PAGE 9 - PLAINHEALER-FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1975 , On Wednesday, the Scouts hoarded buses and headed for Shabbona Hills, , the new Scout * camp just west of Woodstock,. to spend a day of fun and friendship with sister Scouts from Potawatomi Day camp Even despite some bad weather, the Scouts enjoyed the day and came home singing, a, favorite Scout pastime. Camp closed Friday evening with an all-camp bonfire program Each unit took part. Junior Scouts, with the help of their leaders, Judy Grauman and Maxine Mahal, built an Indian teepee and performed an Indian dance - not a rain dance - and a poem. Camp was officially closed with the lowering of the American Flag by the Scouts ' Color Guard. Day Camp, an important part of the Scouting program, is completely staffed and organized by volunteers, and these people were" given a special thanks at the campfire program - a well deserved thanks. These volunteers, besides spending the week at camp. take pre^mShary ; training and generoustT^give much of their t ime and talents to make this a great outdoor experience for the Scouts - and judging from their smiles and •spirit , have a good time doing it . This year 's staff was very competent and worked well with the girls, agreed Day camp director, Lucy Coleman, and Da^jcamp chairman. Mary l,ou Cope. This year 's staff included Brownie leaders, Pat Schuler, Joyce Kaminskv. Judy Halm, Gerry Sakinsky, Sue J Zographos, Gert Nielsen, Leota , Gieselman, Dee Fung ^nd Joanne Dietrich. Junior Scouts were under the leadership of Judy Grauman and Maxine Mahal, while Betty Harney, Kathy Woodlock and Linda Winn worked with Cadettes. Mary Lou Cope and Pam Carani, assisted by Jeannie Dietrich, hosted the popular craft area. Nancy Berg served as first aider, and Pat Crocco, single handedly and very capably managed the shopping for over 100 people during the week. ?. Invaluable for their constant cheerfulness and never ending help were the Senior and Cadette Scout aides, Cindy Berg, Diane Carpentier. Laura Bell , Margie Gibbons, Sue Berg. Lori Harney, Patty Coleman. Barb Ries, and Terry Polka. Special consultants getting a big vote of appreciation from the Scouts were the "Guitar lady", Joanne Gran, who led an all camp sing-along one afternnon, and Cindy Gay, who introduced the Brownies to some new and interesting nature study hikes. The Cadettes capped off their Day camp experience with an overnight camp-out at the Conservation area Friday night. The Scouts and their leaders enjoyed their first overnight venture in the Conservation area site, and went home on Saturday, after a huge camp fire breakfast of French toast, bacon, sausage, eggs and milk, feeling very satisfied that Day camp had been an interesting and good outdoor adventure. squirrels right up to the leaders. Most intriguing was the "leather" bottle made of masking tape and shoe polish. String and nail pictures, dough sculpting, dipped popcorn flowers, and leather Indian headbands made the craft corner a busy place. Looking for some new ad­ venture, the Cadette Scouts set off one morning with their leader. Betty Harney, on a thirty-mile round trip bike hike to Chain-O-Lakes park. They returned that afternoon, a li t t le less adventurous but sti l l smiling. Outdoor cooking, as usual, was an important part of the week's program. Fire building skills readily passed the test of the somewhat damp conditions, and many new recipes and methods of outdoor cooking were successfully tried by the Scouts. Such tasty tidbits as pizza burgers, tacos, French iries cooked in a corn popper, pie iVon pizzas, ' angels on horseback, and bannoc, a bread baked over the fire in a skillet , proved to be not only good but fun cooking. The Cadettes were especially pleased with their raisin-applesauce cake - cooked in a cardboard box.
