�CAMPING AND ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE
Robert L. Irwin, Jr., ChaJ.rman
In 1960 the aim and goal of your Camping and Activities Comrnittee was to place
in the hands of unit leaders across the council, a program that would stimu·
late activities within the local unit, and to establish such procedures that
would develop good camping techniques and simplify ways and means to get the
job done,
JUUILEE ACTIVITIES:
The Camping and Activities Committee along with the Jubilee Committee launched
a heavy program during Uoy Scout Week with many units having special displays
in many areas of our council.
The Scout·O-Rama which was very successful used
Scouting. Participatio n was excellent.

the Golden Jubilee

theme of

Each district and division conducted Cub Jubilee Days, Jubilee Camp·O·Rees and
Jubilee Field Days for Explorer units. Participatio n was exceptional ly good
in all of these events.
The highlight of the Golden Jubilee year was the wonderful participatio n in
the National Jamboree held at Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Chickasaw
Council had 185 Scouts and Explorers and 22 adult leaders for a total of five
full units. The most the council has ever sent previously was two units.
Congratulat ions to Mr. Clyde Wentz and his Jambor.ee Committee for their fine
job in promoting attendance and making arrangement s for this unusual opportunity for so many boys.
LONG TERM CAMP :
Kamp Kia Kima had one of its finest years of camping this year. The unit
leaders who were fortunate enough to attend camp with their units have been
very complimenta ry about the program. We now have eighty-thre e units that
have made reservation s for 1961 summer camp.
Camp Fuller had one of its best years in summer camping and it was noticed
that the quality of the program was greatly improved, We feel that the amount
of short term camping will increase greatly in our divisions now that the
Chickasaw Council has been able to buy ten acres of land joining Fuller State
Park. This will give our division Scout units a place where they can go without great transportat ion problems.
CIVIC SERVICE PROJECTS:
The Camping and Activities Committee is very proud of the civic service pro·
jects such as Goodwill Good Turn Day, The Fire Prevention Parade, and the tremendous job of placing the door knob hangers
on each door encouraging all
eligible voters to get out and vote.
The committee wants to express its appreciatio n to the commissione rs and the
operating committees for their splendid support in making this one of our
finest years of camping and activities in Chickasaw Council.

�f.!!iANCE COMMITTEE
Alvan F. Tate, Jr,, Chairman

1960 has been a good financial year for Chickasaw Council. We are accomplishing our major financial objective - that of operating within our operating
income, This we have done without any serious impairment of the program - a
fact that can be proved by the progress reports of other committees, This is
an outstanding accomplishment since this is the first time we have been able
to do this in many years, All special activities were also financially successful and we have been able to add substantially to our capital fund,
Our financial record has been made possible by the following reasons:
good
budget building process and budget control; an excellent Shelby United Neighbors campaign, which we fully supported; the best area campaign in many years;
and wonderful support given by our sustaining members.
We are grateful to all who have assisted our financial program in any way, and
we look forward to a greatly expanded program in 1961 to enable us to meet the
challenge we have to serve the boys of our council.

�HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE
Dr, Henry D. Turner,

Chairman

During the past year the Health and Safety Committee has been quite active
and is pleased to report the completion of the following endeavors:
1.

Prior to the summer camping period your committee inspected Camp
Currier and Kamp Kia Kima, Since submitting its report to the
council the committee has been gratified to learn that the majority of its recommendations concerning matters of sanitation and
safety in the two camps has been virtually 100 percent carried
out, The only matter yet to be improved upon is that of certain
safety precautions regarding the use of boats at Camp Currier.

2,

We are proud to report that there was a physician in attendance
at Kia Kima each week during the past summer, Several of these
men have already indicated their desire to attend camp next year
and we fully anticipate having ample medical care available in
camp for each week in 1961.

3.

The chairman wishes to express his gratitude for the work of the
committee members in cor.1pleting their inspection of the unit
meeting places. These reports have been placed in the hands of
the Scout executive.

4.

Thanks to the initiative of Mr, Jack B. Kelly, Jr., consultation
has been obtained fro~• Captain Duane E. Mallory of the Memphis
Fire Department concerning fire drills of the various units. A
recommended procedure for such drills has been formulated and
submitted to the various unit leaders for their consideration and
execution.

The Health and Safety Committee wishes to thank all of those who have contributed to the successof its program during the past year and to assure
the members of the executive committee that the health and safety features
of Chickasaw Council are in very satisfactory condition.

�LEADERSHIP TRAINING COMMITTEE
T. J, McGuire, III, Chairman
The only possible way that we can improve the quality program that our
boys receive is through trained adult leadership,
In order to meet its objective of providing every boy with a trained
leader the Leadership Training Committee adopted a program this year
of conducting basic training courses within the institution.
This
has provided the unit leader with trained personnel to assist him in
carrying out a more effective program with his boys, District train·
ing committees have been organized with additional personnel to maka
this type of training possible.
Early in the year with the assistance of the National Volunteer Train•
ing Service, Instructor Training was given to all training personnel
to provide them with the best techniques of Scout training. Following
the Instructor Training, all the districts of the council have effec•
tively trained their Scouters in the following training courses:
Cub Scout nasic
Cub Scout Completed
Cub Leaders Pow Wow
Den Chiefs Conference
noy Scout nasic
Boy Scout Completed
Showanclo
Patrol Leaders Training
Explorer nasic
District Scouters Conference
So that we might encourage leaders to participate in the training program, emphasis has been placed on the Training Recognition Plan. This
has produced good results as evidenced by the fact that a total of 37
awards have been approved in 1960 as compared to 16 in 1959. Also,
far more training certificates have been presented this year than ever
before in the history of our council,
Plans for even a greater year in training have been formulated for
1961 including a National Wood Badge Course to be conducted in our
council during the month of August,
The outstanding record of training in Chickasaw Council has been made
possible through the efforts of scores of volunteer Scouters that have
given willingly of their time to give the know-how to other Scouters
to enable them to carry out an effective program with their boys. To
these dedicated volunteers we express our gratitude,

CAMPING AND ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE&#13;
Robert L. Irwin, Jr., ChaJ.rman&#13;
In 1960 the aim and goal of your Camping and Activities Comrnittee was to place&#13;
in the hands of unit leaders across the council, a program that would stimu·&#13;
late activities within the local unit, and to establish such procedures that&#13;
would develop good camping techniques and simplify ways and means to get the&#13;
job done,&#13;
JUUILEE ACTIVITIES:&#13;
The Camping and Activities Committee along with the Jubilee Committee launched&#13;
a heavy program during Uoy Scout Week with many units having special displays&#13;
in many areas of our council.&#13;
The Scout·O-Rama which was very successful used the Golden Jubilee theme of&#13;
Scouting. Participation was excellent.&#13;
Each district and division conducted Cub Jubilee Days, Jubilee Camp·O·Rees and&#13;
Jubilee Field Days for Explorer units. Participation was exceptionally good&#13;
in all of these events.&#13;
The highlight of the Golden Jubilee year was the wonderful participation in&#13;
the National Jamboree held at Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Chickasaw&#13;
Council had 185 Scouts and Explorers and 22 adult leaders for a total of five&#13;
full units. The most the council has ever sent previously was two units.&#13;
Congratulations to Mr. Clyde Wentz and his Jambor.ee Committee for their fine&#13;
job in promoting attendance and making arrangements for this unusual opportunity&#13;
for so many boys.&#13;
LONG TERM CAMP :&#13;
Kamp Kia Kima had one of its finest years of camping this year. The unit&#13;
leaders who were fortunate enough to attend camp with their units have been&#13;
very complimentary about the program. We now have eighty-three units that&#13;
have made reservations for 1961 summer camp.&#13;
Camp Fuller had one of its best years in summer camping and it was noticed&#13;
that the quality of the program was greatly improved, We feel that the amount&#13;
of short term camping will increase greatly in our divisions now that the&#13;
Chickasaw Council has been able to buy ten acres of land joining Fuller State&#13;
Park. This will give our division Scout units a place where they can go without&#13;
great transportation problems.&#13;
CIVIC SERVICE PROJECTS:&#13;
The Camping and Activities Committee is very&#13;
jects such as Goodwill Good Turn Day, The Fire&#13;
mendous job of placing the door knob hangers&#13;
eligible voters to get out and vote.&#13;
proud of the civic service pro·&#13;
Prevention Parade, and the treon&#13;
each door encouraging all&#13;
The committee wants to express its appreciation to the commissioners and the&#13;
operating committees for their splendid support in making this one of our&#13;
finest years of camping and activities in Chickasaw Council.&#13;
f.!!iANCE COMMITTEE&#13;
Alvan F. Tate, Jr,, Chairman&#13;
1960 has been a good financial year for Chickasaw Council. We are accomplishing&#13;
our major financial objective - that of operating within our operating&#13;
income, This we have done without any serious impairment of the program - a&#13;
fact that can be proved by the progress reports of other committees, This is&#13;
an outstanding accomplishment since this is the first time we have been able&#13;
to do this in many years, All special activities were also financially successful&#13;
and we have been able to add substantially to our capital fund,&#13;
Our financial record has been made possible by the following reasons:&#13;
budget building process and budget control; an excellent Shelby United&#13;
bors campaign, which we fully supported; the best area campaign in many&#13;
and wonderful support given by our sustaining members.&#13;
good&#13;
Neighyears;&#13;
We are grateful to all who have assisted our financial program in any way, and&#13;
we look forward to a greatly expanded program in 1961 to enable us to meet the&#13;
challenge we have to serve the boys of our council.&#13;

HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE&#13;
Dr, Henry D. Turner, Chairman&#13;
During the past year the Health and Safety Committee has been quite active&#13;
and is pleased to report the completion of the following endeavors:&#13;
1. Prior to the summer camping period your committee inspected Camp&#13;
Currier and Kamp Kia Kima, Since submitting its report to the&#13;
council the committee has been gratified to learn that the majority&#13;
of its recommendations concerning matters of sanitation and&#13;
safety in the two camps has been virtually 100 percent carried&#13;
out, The only matter yet to be improved upon is that of certain&#13;
safety precautions regarding the use of boats at Camp Currier.&#13;
2, We are proud to report that there was a physician in attendance&#13;
at Kia Kima each week during the past summer, Several of these&#13;
men have already indicated their desire to attend camp next year&#13;
and we fully anticipate having ample medical care available in&#13;
camp for each week in 1961.&#13;
3. The chairman wishes to&#13;
committee members in&#13;
meeting places. These&#13;
the Scout executive.&#13;
express his gratitude for the work of the&#13;
cor.1pleting their inspection of the unit&#13;
reports have been placed in the hands of&#13;
4. Thanks to the initiative of Mr, Jack B. Kelly, Jr., consultation&#13;
has been obtained fro~• Captain Duane E. Mallory of the Memphis&#13;
Fire Department concerning fire drills of the various units. A&#13;
recommended procedure for such drills has been formulated and&#13;
submitted to the various unit leaders for their consideration and&#13;
execution.&#13;
The Health and Safety Committee wishes to thank all of those who have contributed&#13;
to the successof its program during the past year and to assure&#13;
the members of the executive committee that the health and safety features&#13;
of Chickasaw Council are in very satisfactory condition.&#13;
LEADERSHIP TRAINING COMMITTEE&#13;
T. J, McGuire, III, Chairman&#13;
The only possible way that we can improve the quality program that our&#13;
boys receive is through trained adult leadership,&#13;
In order to meet its objective of providing every boy with a trained&#13;
leader the Leadership Training Committee adopted a program this year&#13;
of conducting basic training courses within the institution. This&#13;
has provided the unit leader with trained personnel to assist him in&#13;
carrying out a more effective program with his boys, District train·&#13;
ing committees have been organized with additional personnel to maka&#13;
this type of training possible.&#13;
Early in the year with the assistance of the National Volunteer Train•&#13;
ing Service, Instructor Training was given to all training personnel&#13;
to provide them with the best techniques of Scout training. Following&#13;
the Instructor Training, all the districts of the council have effec•&#13;
tively trained their Scouters in the following training courses:&#13;
Cub Scout nasic&#13;
Cub Scout Completed&#13;
Cub Leaders Pow Wow&#13;
Den Chiefs Conference&#13;
noy Scout nasic&#13;
Boy Scout Completed&#13;
Showanclo&#13;
Patrol Leaders Training&#13;
Explorer nasic&#13;
District Scouters Conference&#13;
So that we might encourage leaders to participate in the training program,&#13;
emphasis has been placed on the Training Recognition Plan. This&#13;
has produced good results as evidenced by the fact that a total of 37&#13;
awards have been approved in 1960 as compared to 16 in 1959. Also,&#13;
far more training certificates have been presented this year than ever&#13;
before in the history of our council,&#13;
Plans for even a greater year in training have been formulated for&#13;
1961 including a National Wood Badge Course to be conducted in our&#13;
council during the month of August,&#13;
The outstanding record of training in Chickasaw Council has been made&#13;
possible through the efforts of scores of volunteer Scouters that have&#13;
given willingly of their time to give the know-how to other Scouters&#13;
to enable them to carry out an effective program with their boys. To&#13;
these dedicated volunteers we express our gratitude,&#13;

COMMISSIONER STAFF&#13;
w. K. West, Jr,, Council Commissioner&#13;
It has been the aim of the commissioner staff to recruit and maintain&#13;
an adequate staff to serve all Cub Scout, Boy Scout and Explorer units in&#13;
each district and division.&#13;
We started the year with fifty-eight commissioners and we now have a&#13;
staff of seventy-nine commissioners serving 355 units. This is an average&#13;
of a little over four units per man. Our goal is that we will try and&#13;
have one commissioner serving each institution's Scouting program.&#13;
We now have an assistant district commissioner responsible for each&#13;
district and division Cub and Scout Leader's Roundtable.&#13;
The basic job of the commissioner is to keep the units alive and&#13;
healthy, We do this by knowing all of our units. We try to see that each&#13;
unit has qualified and trained adult leadership. We assist units to develop&#13;
and carry out good programs. We assist with annual roll call, charter&#13;
review, and charter presentation for units. We promote the entire&#13;
council program to all of our units,&#13;
We want to express our appreciation to all six operating committees&#13;
for the splendid support and help they have given the commissioner staff,</text>
