Can't make it, but congratulations on a successful camporee.
Please no more wampum next year. I feel strongly that this was not a good
addition to camporee. Many people, including all my Pack's adult leaders,
and certainly our Webelos, felt that it was unfairly distributed. I agree.
My Webelos did a great job and even if they had combined all their wampum,
they couldn't have won even one bid! They were dismayed. Somebody was
gaming the system - smart scouts, so very predictable. And even if it had
been fair, it turned our meetings and campfires into a bazaar. The time
spent soliciting bids was a huge, boring waste of time, and got away from
fellowship and boy-led skits and songs and certainly away from the Scouting
spirit.
Thanks for successfully muzzling the sprinklers!
Thanks for a great job on Camporee, and for your planning.

Cubmaster, Pack 117

Our next camporee meeting will be Wed, June 1st, 2005 at the Westside Scout
Shop at 7:00 PM.
With Camporee 11.5 months away it will be a relaxed evening with munchies
and a chance to share photos, ideas and reminisce about
what life has been like without the Camporee to plan.
Please consider joining us.
