I am looking for staff for Shooting Sports (must be 14 this year), staff for Leatherwork, Scout Skills, Crafts, Leather and Wood Craft.  I am also looking for staff of the 11 & 12 year age.  This group will be the ‘Den Chiefs’ and time keepers of the patrols/dens of Cub Scouts.  These 11 & 12 year old scouts will lead their groups to the scheduled program areas.  I am also looking for an 18 year old (or 18 this year) who will be our water carrier and this ‘Water Boy/Girl) will be driving our water trailer around & making sure each of the program areas has water and any supplies needed.

Day Camp Training: May 22, 2012 – at 100th & Central (OA Church) – room 2 – we will be excepting Staff apps at 7 pm.

Those approved for Shooting Sports will be able to take training for this on Saturday, June 16, 2012, at 9:00am at Trinity Christian College.
