4 Returning Summer 2017 The Native American Village Jim Sawgrass is a native Floridian and a member of the Muskogee Creek Indian Tribe. He served on the Florida Indian Council from 1991 to Sawgrass has been sharing his knowledge of the Southeastern Native American tribes for over 25 years. As a child, he was always interested in history, building forts, and exploring the woods and swamps. The outdoors was always, and continues to be a big part of his life. He became more involved with his Native American heritage by attending powwows, Native festivals, and historical reenactments. He learned more about Native culture and history from the many elders, outdoors-men, and reenactors he was surrounded by. He became an Eagle Scout and applies his scouting skills to this day. In 1988, Sawgrass began presenting programs professionally on Native American history and started the Deep Forest Historical Native American Programs. Since then, he has performed at places like schools, Powwows, state and national parks, Disney, EPCOT, Sea World, New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festivals and many other places around the U.S. 2

Camp La-No-Che is excited to welcome Scouts who are at Summer Camp for the first time, and offers a place to jump start their basic Scouting skills required for Scout, Tenderfoot, Second, and First Class ranks. Using the Patrol Method, Scouts are introduced to the fundamentals of being a Boy Scout, and will leave Camp with more knowledge of that Rank. How much each Scout completes is up to him, and it is possible that different Scouts may complete more requirements than others. There are three (3) stages to the redesigned program: PATHFINDER Designed for youth who are new to Boy Scouts and trying to earn their Scout and Tenderfoot Ranks. Organized in Patrols, Scouts will learn skills which include basic knots, proper use of woods tools (including pocketknife, saw, and axe), basic first aid, and Scouting fundamentals. Each Scout will receive credit for the Rank advancement requirements that are completed at camp. Rank requirements covered Scout: 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 4a, 4b, 5; Tenderfoot: 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 5c 24

27 VOYAGER Designed for more seasoned Scouts who are striving to earn the Second Class Rank. This class will further develop a Scout s skill in the outdoors, focusing on: fire building, more advanced knots, map and compass, and first aid. We will blaze the trail with a five (5) mile hike wearing suitable hiking shoes and plenty of water, to further the journey. Adults are encouraged to join in the hike to enjoy the scenery that Camp La-No-Che has to offer. Rank requirements covered Second Class: 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2f, 2g, 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 4, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 6e VANGUARD The highest rank in Lord Baden Powell s original scouting program, First Class is the peak for the opportunity to gain knowledge of the outdoors, pioneering, and first aid, while continuing to follow the ideals of Scouting. This class will challenge the teachings of previous ranks, while expanding upon those same lessons. Included is a one (1) mile orienteering course to test map and compass skills. The Vanguard program will offer Scouts the opportunity to test and apply their knowledge with advanced projects from the skills they have learned. Rank requirements covered First Class: 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 4a, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 6b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 7f First year Scouts are strongly encouraged to attend one (or all if adventurous) of these stages of the TRAILBLAZER Program, as it will set the pace for their future in Scouting.

63 Swim Classification Procedures The swim classification of individuals participating in a Boy Scouts of America activity is a key element in both Safe Swim Defense and Safety Afloat. The swim classification tests should be renewed annually, preferably at the beginning of each outdoor season. Traditionally, the swim classification test has only been con- ducted at a long term summer camp, however, there is no restriction that this be the only place the test can be conducted. It may be more useful to conduct the swim classification prior to a unit going to summer camp. All persons participating in BSA aquatics are classified according to swimming ability. The classification tests and test procedures have been developed and structured to demonstrate a skill level consistent with the circumstances in which the individual will be in the water (e.g., the Swimmer s Test demonstrates the minimum level of swimming ability for recreational and instructional activity in a confined body of water with a maximum 12- foot depth.) ADMINISTRATION OF SWIM CLASSIFICATION TEST (THE LOCAL COUNCIL CHOOSES ONE OF THESE OPTIONS): OPTION A (at camp): The swim classification test is completed the first day by Camp Aquatics personnel. OPTION B (Council conducted/council controlled): The council controls the swim classification process by predetermined dates, locations and approved personnel to serve as test administrators. When the unit goes to summer camp, each individual will be issued a buddy tag under the direction of the Camp Aquatics Director for use at the camp. OPTION C (At unit level with council-approved aquatics resource people): The swim classification test done at a unit level should be conducted by one of the following council-approved resource people: Aquatics Instructor, BSA; Aquatics Cub Supervisor; BSA Lifeguard; BSA Swimming & Water Rescue; or other lifeguard, swimming instructor, etc. When the unit goes to summer camp, each individual will be issued a buddy tag under the direction of the Camp Aquatics Director for use at the camp. TO THE TEST ADMINISTRATOR The various components of each test evaluate the several skills essential to the minimum level of swimming ability. Each step of the test is important and should be followed as listed below: SWIMMER S TEST: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, and begin swimming. Swim 75 yards in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: side stroke, breast stroke, trudge, or crawl; then swim 25 yards using an easy resting back stroke. The 100 yards must be swum continuously and include at least one sharp turn. After completing the swim, rest by floating. BEGINNER S TEST: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, swim 25 feet on the surface, stop, urn sharply, resume swimming as before, and return to starting place. 61

Keep proficient in diving skills, striving to increase them through continuing education and reviewing them in controlled conditions after a period of diving inactivity, and refer to my course materials to stay current and refresh myself on important information. 2. Be familiar with my dive sites. If not, obtain a formal diving orientation from a knowledgeable, local source. If diving conditions are worse than those in which I am experienced, postpone diving or select an alternate site with better conditions. Engage only in diving activities consistent with my training and experience. Do not engage in cave or technical diving unless specifically trained to do so. 3. Use complete, well-maintained, reliable equipment with which I am familiar; and inspect it for correct fit and function prior to each dive. Have a buoyancy control device, low-pressure buoyancy control inflation system, submersible pressure gauge and alternate air source and dive planning/monitoring device (dive computer, RDP/dive tables whichever you are trained to use) when scuba diving. Deny use of my equipment to uncertified divers. 4. Listen carefully to dive briefings and directions and respect the advice of those supervising my diving activities. Recognize that additional training is recommended for participation in specialty diving activities, in other geographic areas and after periods of inactivity that exceed six months. 5. Adhere to the buddy system throughout every dive. Plan dives including communications, procedures for reuniting in case of separation and emergency procedures with my buddy. 6. Be proficient in dive planning (dive computer or dive table use). Make all dives no decompression dives and allow a margin of safety. Have a means to monitor depth and time underwater. Limit maximum depth to my level of training and experience. Ascend at a rate of not more than 18 metres/60 feet per minute. Be a SAFE diver Slowly Ascend From Every dive. Make a safety stop as an added precaution, usually at 5 metres/15 feet for three minutes or longer. 7. Maintain proper buoyancy. Adjust weighting at the surface for neutral buoyancy with no air in my buoyancy control device. Maintain neutral buoyancy while underwater. Be buoyant for surface swimming and resting. Have weights clear for easy removal, and establish buoyancy when in distress while diving. Carry at least one surface signaling device (such as signal tube, whistle, mirror). 8. Breathe properly for diving. Never breath-hold or skip-breathe when breathing compressed air, and avoid excessive hyperventilation when breath-hold diving. Avoid overexertion while in and underwater and dive within my limitations. 9. Use a boat, float or other surface support station, whenever feasible. 10. Know and obey local dive laws and regulations, including fish and game and dive flag laws. I understand the importance and purposes of these established practices. I recognize they are for my own safety and well-being, and that failure to adhere to them can place me in jeopardy when diving.

Make sure you like or follow us on all three to always stay on top of what is going on at camp, whether you re here or not! During the summer, we ll use our twitter account to help keep you updated on program alerts. Our official hashtag for the summer will be #LaNoChe2017 (if you re not sure what this means, just ask your scouts) and we hope that you ll use it to share all the pictures you take with us! We recognize the importance of keeping our scouts involved with what is going on at camp and not glued to their phones the whole time but, like at Jamboree, we ask that you consider allowing your more responsible scouts (who won t lose or damage their phones) to bring and use their phones to share their camp adventures with their friends back home. Depending on your cell carrier there is limited cell coverage around camp, frequently better coverage around the lakefront, and there is public Wi-Fi at the dining hall and a few other places around downtown camp. A password and usage policies for the Wi-Fi will be shared with you at the Sunday afternoon leaders meeting. Along with the Camp La-No-Che accounts, Central Florida Council is online too! Our council has an official Facebook and Twitter page, along with various other accounts for our districts. Make sure to check out all of our official accounts below!
