utive; Edward Knapp, i Salem
scout, Milton St- John, Gervais
senior scout; Ronald Bussutil, na
tive of Cairo, Egypt, who is vis
iting here, and S.T. More, De
troit area U5. forest ranger .and
camping chairman of Marion
scout district. .
The party went by auto to with
in two miles of camp, Knapp said.
Last year this point could not be
reached because of snow until
mid-June. They found snow and
ice covering only about half of the
camp's Pine lake. Knapp esti
mated winter damage to the camp
as negligible. .
Water level of the lake was
found to have raised about two
feet during the winter because of
a dam built there last summer.
Because of the early spring dry-
spell, Knapp said the mosquito
problem would be more easily
controlled.
Already 450 scouts from 27
troops have signed up for camp,
which opens July 7, Leighton said.
However, camp-site space still re
mains for 13 more troops or, 250
scouts,' he added. He indicated
that in early June, council scout
parties would be sent to the camp
to ready it for summer camping.
