Since the scout service center doesn't have a lot of Varsity apparel I thought I'd post some links to the online scout shop for Varsity related apparel.

Camporee Activities

Here is some info about the events that are a part of the Fall Camporee

Events

At each Event Station, historians and re-enactors will tell the boys

about the historical significance of this particular location, as it relates to the

Vicksburg Campaign; they will demonstrate an aspect of soldier's life during

the Civil War.

At each Event Station there will be a very simple team building

activity, which the Adult leaders will supervise. This activity will engage the

boys for 10 or 15 minutes while waiting for the group in front to finish the

history lesson. All materials and supplies for the Teamwork Activity will be

provided to the Host Troop.

The Event Trail is 1.5 mile loop.

Vicksburg

History lesson: Running the Gauntlet

Teamwork Activity: "Giant Slingshot"

Giant Slingshot

Scouts will launch tennis balls at plywood cutout of Civil War Gunboat
