Lisa, Ditto to Eagledad's suggestion about calling the council office. Even if some things aren't finalized for this year, they should at least be able to provide you with a copy of last years listings and leader's guide. Barring major changes, that should help your boys plan and work on prerequisite requirements. It may also help you plan for troop/patrol activities at times when classes aren't in session. If it were me, at he next roundtable, I think I might (quietly) inquire of my fellow scouters as to what experiences they may have had at this camp in the past. Positive feedback from someone who has been there might allay some fear. Negative feedback might indicate that more time/effort is needed to work on the backup plan. Some thoughts. Steve

Purple, Welcome to the fire! I have been reading this list for about a year and learned a great deal! It sounds like you have been part of a great troop. No doubt that you can add much to the discussions! Steve

Tindeuchen, Ditto what John-in-KC said about the Indian Regailia firms. The one my chapter used when I was a youth was named Grey Owl, although we ordered from Crazy Crow as well. They seemed to have kits for everything that you might want. Also, check the local library for books on the subject. I recal one author, Ben Hunt, had written several books on making regalia. I don't recall what region he may have focussed on. Some thoughts. Steve
