Yogi Bern Reigns at Ccsmp
By JOE HAT
Yogi Bear and his friends
reigned supreme at the 19CI 4-H
Summer camp at Cutsforth Park
held in July. Last year's camp
theme was ' Yoel Bear in Jelly
stone I'ark." Fifty-four Morrow
county boys and Rlrls and ten
counsellors enjoyed the three
day outing In July.
411 club members between the
apes of nine and thirteen are
eligible for 411 Summer Camp
each year. Camp counsellors are
picked from older 411 members
who are freshmen In high school
or older.
Every year campers have
many varied activities while at
their three-day camp. They have
fun playing such sports as soft
ball, volleyball and badminton.
Classes on forestry, wild flowers,
crafts, camp safety, outdoor
cooking, and hiking as well as
many others are provided to help
campers appreciate and under
stand the out-of-doors.
While at 411 Summer Camp,
campers often provide their own
entertainment. Last year the
first evening was devoted to
story telling bv the camp coun
sellors. Each counsellor told
stories about Yogi Bear and his
friends in Jellystone Park. The
second evening, a movie called
'Hear Country" was shown to
the campers. In addition to the
movie, campers participated in
various games, races and relays.
The third night was stunt night.
Each tent of campers put on a
skit or a stunt which they had
prepared while at camp. Much
aughter was created by the var
ious skits and stunts.
On Sunday, the last day of
amp, Kev. David uauer,
Seventh-day Adventist minister,
came to camp for the morning
service. Following the Sunday
service campers were given a
! choice of a tour to Coal Mine
Hill to dig for fossils or a tour
to hunt for wild flowers. On
Sunday afternoon the parents
came to camp for their children
and helped to take the camp
down and put it away for an
other year.
All 4-11 boys and girls between
the ages of nine and thirteen
who are interested in going to
4-H Summer Camp this year
should mark July 12-15 on their
calendar. These are the dates set
for the 19C2 4-H Summer Camp.
In addition to the camping fees
paid by each camper, the 4-H
I eaders Council heavily subsi
dizes the camping program in
Morrow county. Without the
many hours of labor donated
by 4-H leaders for improving the
camp and the additional money
for camp operation, 4-H boys
and girls would not be able to
participate In such a fine camp
ing experience.
