Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 10: The Algonquians in early America created the tomahawk. Before Europeans came to the continent, Native Americans would use stones attached to wooden handles, secured with strips of rawhide. Though typically used as weapons, they could also be used for everyday tasks, such as chopping, cutting or hunting. Each Scout will throw two rounds of two tomahawks for a total of four throws worth a total of 20 points per Scout. Tomahawk sticks in the Bullseye........................................ 5 Points Anywhere on the paper target............................................ 4 Points Anywhere on the butt (log)................................................. 3 Points Sticks anywhere momentarily but falls out......................... 1 Point If a tomahawk is knocked out by the next hawk, keeps highest value score The 2019 Camp-o-ree Guide is available for viewing on: https://www.bsa-gnyc.org/statenisland. #WeOwnAdventure #ScoutMeIn #BoyScoutsOfAmerica #ScoutsBSA #Venturing #Exploring #SeaScouts #Scouting #BeAScout #BePrepared

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 4: Competitive events at the Camporee are undoubtedly the main highlight for this annual celebration. Patrols prepare year round to test themselves against other patrols and claim victory. This year, we have a total of 5 required events, 4 optional, and 1 unscored. The more events you participate in, the better of course, as you will rally more points for your patrol. Over the next two days, we will be highlighting the events that Scouts will do to claim victory in their efforts to succeed. Remember to present yourselves with a maximum amount of Scout Spirit and Leadership. They might just be the deciding factor. Hope to see you all soon. Good luck and #BePrepared.

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 6: "Aye laddie, it was great hike along the Cliffs of Moher, but one bad step was all it took and now your arm is broken." Hiking along the Cliffs of Moher has left someone with a broken arm. It is your responsibility as Scouts to create a proper splint and bring her to safety. You will be tested on the equipment you use to create the splint, whether it was done properly, and if the scene was safe for the Scout to help. You’ll not get points for speed, only for skills and accuracy. Patrol Leaders should exhibit leadership skills and maintain control over their Patrol, Patrol should act as a team. Don’t forget your Scout Spirit lads!

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 2: A part of an amazing troop site is an amazing gateway that embodies the theme of the Camp-o-ree as well as shows the principles of Scouting. The theme for this Camp-o-ree is Scouting Around the World. Remember to properly display the American Flag and Unit Flags in your gateway. Make sure we see minimum adult participation in creating the gateway. Make sure it is safe to be near and that the structure is made of natural materials. Knots and lashings must be of quality. And we score in how creative it is, its visual impact on the judges, and originality.

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 5: Two Brave Fiddlers will try to burn Rome to the ground without burning down the surrounding countryside. A major component of any Scouting program is fire building. It is done at every camping trip. It provides you with some late night warmth. It provides the burning of the marshmallow you stuff into a delicious treat. It also creates an atmosphere of welcome and warmth. In this competition, you must use twine and kindling to burn Rome without burning the surrounding countryside. There will be a bag of water on the second string. When your fire breaks the bag, the water will put out the fire and the countryside will be saved.

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 11: Test your observation skills and capacity to memorize together as a team! For this event you will work together as a patrol to attempt to memorize all 40 of the items inside of a tent. You will have 2 minutes to look at the items. You may not make written notes or use technology in any way! After the 2 minutes are up, the tent will be closed and you will have a maximum of 4 minutes to write a list of all the things you can remember. You will be scored based on the correct number of items you list. Bonus: If you decide not to wait 4 minutes to provide your written list, you will gain an extra point for every 10 seconds you take off, as follows: 3 minutes 50 seconds – add 1 point 3 minutes 40 seconds – add 2 points 3 minutes 30 seconds – add 3 points 3 minutes 20 seconds – add 4 points 3 minutes 10 seconds – add 5 points 3 minutes – add 6 points 2 minutes 50 seconds – add 7 points 2 minutes 40 seconds – add 8 points 2 minutes 30 seconds – add 9 points 2 minutes 20 seconds – add 10 points The 2019 Camp-o-ree Guide is available for viewing on: https://www.bsa-gnyc.org/statenisland. #WeOwnAdventure #ScoutMeIn #BoyScoutsOfAmerica #ScoutsBSA #Venturing #Exploring #SeaScouts #Scouting #BeAScout #BePrepared

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 7: Knot-tying has long been a part of the Scouting program — for good reasons. It promotes discipline and focus, and it teaches useful skills that can be used immediately. Most people can tie just one knot (the “overhand”); many Scouts know more than a dozen. In this station, Scouts will be presented with a knot tying station where three Scouts per patrol will collaborate to tie the following knots for five points per knot: 1. Square Knot 2. Bowline 3. Sheep bend 4. Clove Hitch 5. Two half Hitches 6. Tautline hitch 7. Sheepshank Time limit is 5 minutes. There are no points for speed, only for skills and accuracy.

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 12: Can you and your patrol build a vehicle to cross the ferocious Alligators of the Amazon? The Alligator Pit is a 15′ x 15′ square. Patrols line up on one side of the pit. On signal the patrols lash together an A-Frame “walker” using either three Square Lashings or two Square Lashings with a Two-Spar Shear Lashing at the top. At the top they attach two 20-foot lashing ropes, and attach two more ropes at each corner of the crossbar, using Two Half Hitches. These are the guy lines. The patrol then stands the “walker” upright, and one member climbs on the crossbar. One Scout mans each guy line to help steady and to help propel the Scout on the crossbar as he tries to “walk” the A-Frame across the alligator pit. Only the A-frame “walker” is allowed inside the pit. Maximum time allowed is 10 minutes.

Countdown to #AquehongaCamporee Tip 9: The Caber is a tree that has been cut and trimmed down so one end is slightly wider than the other. It can vary length from 16 to 22 feet and between 100 and 180 pounds. Our Caber will be adjusted in size and weight for our youth. The smaller end is rounded off so it will be easy to cup in the thrower’s hands. The caber is stood up for the thrower with the large end up. The thrower hoists the caber up and cups the small end in his hands. He then takes a short run with the caber and then stops and pulls the caber so that the large end hits the ground and the small end flips over and faces away from the thrower. The caber in a perfect toss will pass through the vertical position and land with the small end pointing directly at 12 o’clock in an imaginary straight line extending from the competitor through the initial landing point and in line with the direction of the run. An overhead view is drawn below to demonstrate a 12 o’clock toss. A valid turn is when the small end of the caber passes through the vertical position and falls away from the competitor to land within the 180-degree radius, between 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock. An overhead view is drawn below to demonstrate some turned cabers and how they are scored.
