Aaowm~ whether members of K.ia Kima's camp staff or just volunteeJ."S for the weekend. pitched ill and set up tents. cleaned up campsites and camp program areas. and joined together ill fellowship. Their efforts paid off in the five sessions of Boy scout camp and one of Cub-Webelos held at Kia Kw in 1993. The staff, widely acclaimed for their maturity. skills, and energy. was a key factor in this success, and over ninety percent of the staff were Arrowmen in the Chicbsah Lodge. Reservation Dirc::ctor Scott Stephens and Program Directors Paul Prothero and Carey White, all Vigil Honor members of the lodge, led the staff in creating a top-flight program in aquatics, ecology-conservation, handicraft~ shooting sports. and Scoutcraft. Set in the beauty and expanse of the rolling Omrk Mountains, the Kia Kima experience is one not to be missed in Scouting. The lodge continued its service through two post-camp Ordeals. at which they tackled the monumental task of taking down tents. bunks, and mattresses and storing them for the season, as well as helping Camp Ranger Larry CoWits with numerous projects around camp. Without the efforts of the numerous members and candidates alib; closing camp and preparing for the future would have been impossible. The Chickasaw Council and the Chickasah Lodge are already looking forward to preparing for Kia Kima's 1994 season. already set to be its best ever. As an Arrowman, you can be a part of this success story: sign up to help with the lodge's camp promotions program in the coming winter and sprin~ and encourage all the Scouts in your troop to sign up for Kia Kima in l 994. And finally consider the uhimate dedication to the council's camp: apply for a position on the K.ia Kima staff. an inoomperable adventure of hard work. fun. fello~ and the rewards of helping boys become men. ,A!'b~ �Arrowmen in Action Featuring Martez o.
