While many of the candidates for one of the five weekly camp ing periods are torn between a desire to spend a few days in the open or to earn money in the strawberry fields, it is antici pated that Camp Pioneer will be filled to capacity from July 15 through August 18. Camp in 20th Year This will he thc 20th year of operations at the camp which suffered severe losses in 1S48 when unusually heavy snowfall destroyed the dining lodge and I trading post. These two build ings have since been replaced with more commodious quarters. The dining lodge which was completed last year is 110 feet in length and capable of feeding all of the scouts at a single set ting. Its construction was fi nanced by funds realized from Scout circuses sponsored by the Salem Linns club. Camp Pioneer offers a variety of scouting skills and adventure. These include nature trails, pio neering, handicraft, and an op portunity for a boy to advance in scouting. The lake with a competent waterfront staff, provides swim ming and canoeing. Jury Heads Program A fee of $17 is charged each scout, which covers the expense -f meals but does not include transportation charges to the camp site. However, it does :ovcr health and accident insur ance. Ken Jury, district Scout execu tive, will head up the entire Camp Pioneer program. He has been given a competent staff in cluding two women cooks, whose meals have been more than am ple for hungry boys. They are Mrs. Wilma Apple and Mrs. Mar cille Ware. The balance of the staff con sists of John Padden, Sweet Home high school instructor, skills director; Chuck Kerr, Al bany high athletic coach, water frorit director; Tommy Tweed, assistant skills director; Myron Stensrud, assistant water front director; John Jensen, truck driver and Jack Eskclson, an Eagle sco,ut, in charge of com missary. Mexico Expedition Through a method of rotation, the camp will be able to provide physical examinations each week 2nd to incoming scouts by a phy sician. The customary Explorer Trail trip for older Scouts will not be conducted this year. In its place will be offered the well known Philmont Expedition near Cim arron, New Mexico. The site comprises 127,000 acres of rugged country on the slopes of the Sangre De Christo range. Boys will be transported by chartered bus and the entire cost of the expedition is $115. The date is July 28 to August 16. One of the shortest railroads in the United States nneralrs for 2' miles out of Union, Oregon.
