Dan Beard Camp is the patrol method in action where Scouts cook their meals in their campsite. Billett campers enjoy eating in the dining hall and share fellowship with other Scouts during meals. Both camps share the program areas and waterfront. Summer camp is when Forestburg comes to life. Our top notch program and talented staff will provide all the opportunities a Scout can handle. Our Frontier Camp Program is offered for Scouts that want the flexibility to schedule their own program choices, but still focus on learning the requirements necessary for a specific rank. Frontier Camp is an opportunity for Scouts to learn the requirements for a specific rank in one program period during the day. This allows the Scout to maximize their ability to earn merit badges and still focus on advancement to the next rank. While in Frontier Camp, Scouts will have the opportunity to learn many of the requirements needed for the ranks they choose to sign up for. Scoutmasters will receive a progress report on each Scout at the end of the week. It is up to the Scoutmaster to review the Scout’s completion of requirements before signing them off. Sumer Schedule Scouts $395 per week Adults $100 per week Week 1 July 10—16 Week 2 July 17—23 Week 3 July 24—30 Week 4 July 31— August 6 Week 5 August 7—13 PROVISIONAL CAMPING Forestburg Scout Reservation offers provisional camping on an individual basis. Great for the scout who wants a second week of Summer Camp. A scout can attend any week he wishes and we will place him with a Troop that will take care of him as if he were one of their own Scouts. Or, his Scoutmaster may recommend a Troop for him to stay with during his desired week. The Provisional Camping Application can be found in the FSR leaders guide. For More Information and to Register Today: www.fsrcamp.org (732) 851-8210 Our Buckskin Camper program is a full day program intended specifically for first year Scouts. This program will place Scouts in a Patrol for the week and allow them to get hands on training in a wide variety of Scouting skills while learning rank requirements for all ranks. The Buckskin Camper program is an opportunity for Scouts to try their hand at knot tying, some basic outdoor skills, learn a little first aid, learn to lash, and even take a nature hike. The big thing here is to have fun while trying. While in the Buckskin Camper program, Scouts will have the opportunity to learn many of the requirements needed for the ranks of Tenderfoot, Second Class and First Class. Scouts will also sign up for merit badge classes in Period A and C in the mornings. Scoutmasters will receive a progress report on each Scout at the end of the week. It is up to the Scoutmaster to review the Scout’s completion of requirements before signing them off. Our Outback Program has been created for Scouts who take the trail less traveled. Exciting event-packed days of the best high adventure challenges the Catskill mountains, lakes and rivers offer. Delaware River canoe trek, horseback riding, rock climbing and rappelling, water skiing and water tubing and an overnight mountain biking trek make this program popular with our senior Scouts. Specifically for Scouts 14 and older with a minimum of the rank of First Class. No experience is necessary. Great as a Senior Patrol Activity! This is also a great program for Venture Crews and Explorer Posts. This program is offered during each week of the FSR Summer Camp program. Each week this program is limited to the first 16 Scouts who pay their nonrefundable $100.00 deposit. The total cost for this program is $445.00. There are no discounts available. Participants will camp with their home or provisional Troop during their participation in this program. February 2016 Sun 7 Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri 1 2 3 4 6pm TB Comrs.

Box 6219 Freehold, NJ 07728 The Order of the Arrow, or OA, is Scouting’s National Honor Society. The purpose of the Order of the Arrow is fourfold: To recognize those Scout campers who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. To develop and maintain camping traditions and spirit. To promote Scout camping. To crystallize the Scout habit of helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others. Na Tsi Hi is the name of our lodge, which is also known by its national lodge number, #71. As scouts are organized into Troops, so the OA is broken up into Lodges. The Order of the Arrow uses Indian Lore to enhance the attractiveness of its program. In the Cherokee language “na tsi hi” means “in the pines,” referring to the pine trees at Camp Housman (which is now part of Allaire State Park) where the lodge was founded. The Order of the Arrow (OA) was founded by Dr. E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson in 1915 at the Treasure Island Camp of the Philadelphia Council, Boy Scouts of America. It became an official program experiment in 1922 and was approved as part of the Scouting program in 1934. In 1948 the OA, recognized as the BSA’s national brotherhood of honor campers, became an official part of the national camping program of the Boy Scouts of America. Being inducted into the OA is a huge honor given to you by your troop. However, it is not an award. You were selected because being in the OA will help you give back to your troop. Remember, Arrowmen are not elected for what they have done, but for what they are expected to do. www.natsihi.org Darlington Falls Forestburg Scout Reservation Forestburgh, NY Program Shelter Quail Hill Scout Reservation Manalapan, NJ MONMOUTH COUNCIL CONTACT Michael P.
