1999 Spring Camporee |
| Ceremonies |
From the opening flag raising to the closing campfire, the ceremonies keep everyone grounded as to why we gather here - to reinforce the skills, the character building, and team building skills of Scouting - the traits exemplified in the Scout Oath and the Scout Law.
 |
Over 170 Scouts and Scouters, from 14
different Troops, from three counties, gather for the
opening flag ceremony and start of the 1999 Fremont
District Camporee. |
| Members of the Lo La 'Qam Geela Lodge
of the Order of the Arrow provide the opening and
invocation for the Saturday Night Campfire. Pictured
(L-R) are Eric Fredstrom as Kitchkinit the Guide, Adam
Worshell as Allowat Sakima - Chief of the Fire, Leslie
Freeman as Nutiket the Guard, and Alex Spreier as Meteu
the Medicine Man. Following the invocation, the fire
amazingly starts by itself (honest)! |

Scouts watch as the Order of the Arrow
selects the Scouts and Scouters from the audience who
have been elected by their peers for membership in the
Order of the Arrow as representing the ideals of Scouting
and cheerful service to others. |
| T21 Scoutmaster Ray Spreier delivers
the Scoutmaster's Minute. |

Slowly fades the light of day, As our campfire fades away. Silently, each Scout should ask, "Have I done my daily task? Have I kept my honor bright? Can I guiltless sleep tonight? Have I done, and have I dared, Everything to Be Prepared?" -from Scout Vespers |
