Camp Timberlane is sure doing its
part to celebrate the Bicentennial year. This being a very important
year will surely turn camp into a special summer.
For many this summer at Timberlane seems the same as last year, but
things are soon going to change. Each village (jr., senior,
intermediate) is working against each other in a project to improve
camp. Some of the suggestions that have been discussed are: (1)
taking logs that have been cut in half long-ways and sanded,
varnished and set them as benches in the barbecue area. (1)
completely rake the waterfront free of leaves, rocks, etc. Other
ideas are being worked on.
After much thought a decision has been reached about extending the
time of completion of all the projects to four of eight weeks.
Also, a special Bicentennial flag will be raised throughout camp.
As was stated earlier, there will be competition between the
villages. Each village will compete against each other to see who can
do the best job. There seems to be no disadvantage toward the younger
cabins because as a younger nation 200 years ago, America defeated
its older opponent for freedom.
So lets all get out and do our part to clean up camp and do get
ready to have a great summer.
