North Shore’s Alien Invasion Camporee: April 22-24, 2022

 

On behalf of Capitol Area Council and the North Shore Chapter of the Order of the Arrow, we invite you to this spring’s event at Smilin V Scout Ranch in Liberty Hill.  Your staff has been working hard to plan a fun event that will showcase your troop and enjoy our North Shore scouting community.  This year’s theme is a science fiction,  Alien Invasion.   

 

The event is scheduled for April 22-24, 2022 at Smilin V.  If you’ve been to one before, you know that spring camporee is an annual event, hosted by the Order of the Arrow, inviting all North Shore District older scout units – troops, crews, and ships – to camp together in spaces assigned for each unit. Units may camp the whole weekend, overnight Friday and/or Saturday, or come out for the day on Saturday. 

During the day on Saturday, scouts will rotate through the unit stations and later compete in a camp-wide challenge.  Each troop is requested to host an activity for other units.  Units will rotate through stations during activity times. Each activity should be able to be completed within 10-15 minutes. Activities are highly encouraged to follow the science first Camporee theme (Alien Invasion) and scout-related activities, such as fire building, knot tying, Scout trivia, First Aid, Pioneering, rope making, games, team building,and more. 

 

Additional awards will be given for campsites,  campfire performance, entryways, Scout spirit, food and the traditional Top Troop canoe award.  Troops are encouraged to bring your favorite campfire skits and songs with an Alien Invasion twist to share in the evening campfire.
