PAGE SIX Camp Cleawox An Ideal Training For Girl Scouts, IC-16 People who never have had a chance to see Girl Scouring in action, especially as can be put on at Camp Cleawox (near Flor- tnce, Ore.), have missed a big treat. This treat is denied most peo- pie, unless they have a daughtei registered at camp- it’s that ex clusive. Situated on a peninsula jutting out into Lake Cleawox. 1he camp can be reached only by barge, unless one would want to take a long hike around the end of the lake, perhaps a dozen or more miles. As a back-drop to this scene from the highway-side of the lake are the sand dunes of mountain heights, and almost as white as snow. The camp sits in a jungle like forest, criss-crossed in web like fashion by trails cut through the undergrowth. It takes a girl scout camper to find her way in this maize of trails. Divided into five sections, the girls are classified according to age groups. The beginners are dubbed “Explorers” and the old est group is called “Vikings.” Each group has its little city of shelters, crescent-shaped af fairs with three walls, and hous ing nine girls. In front of each is an open hearth fireplace, and in the middle of the group is an arena for group activities. The dining hall is a huge rus tic structure which will accom modate about 200 diners. The kitchen looked efficient for the feeding of those hungry mouths made hungrier by living in the out-doors, and whetted by much < xercises of such as swimming. JUST THINK!
