Great Lakes Council in an effort to make Elliott Center more accessible to visitors have paved a walkway from parking lot to the building. Although the walkway has been installed, funding is still needed to pay for the project. Purchased engraved memorial pavers that will be set into the walkway will help defray the cost.

4X8 brick 3 lines at 14 characters per line can be purchased for $50.00. Spaces between letters equal one character.

8X8 Pavers 6 lines at 14 Characters per line can be purchased for $135.00. Spaces between letters equal one character.

Summer Camp

Bill Girardin — Sat, 29 Oct 2011 20:56:24 +0000

Chippewa district did well at summer camp in 2011. We had the highest percent of units going to council camp and were tied for first place for number of scouts attending council camps.
Unfortunately, we also had the highest percent (40%) of scouts that didn’t attend summer camp in 2011. WE CAN DO BETTER IN 2012.
If a scout cannot attend summer camp with his troop for any reason. PLEASE make an effort to help him join another district troop that is going to summer camp at a different time. This will help expand his scouting experience.
