2 Introduction Welcome to the Texas Skies District Camporee 2014! Our theme for this year is The Big Country. This emphasizes on the western traditions of Native Americans and Cowboys. El Rancho Cima River Camp is celebrating its 60th anniversary and we think its a perfect location to hold our first class camporee. Our program will work with the Scouts to improve their Scout skills and teamwork. These events might be a competition but we also aim to educate Scouts on new and fun Scout skills as well as giving them skills they will have for the rest of their lives.
