In and Around Camp Johnson - 2007

From time to time units that use the camp ask if there is anything that they may accomplish as a "good turn" project. The answer is yes there are projects that can be worked on as time allows during the units camp stay. Some can be completed and some only partially completed, it all helps.

-Leave the camp area cleaner and neater then you found it is the first and best way to help. Pick up the litter that seems to grow right out of the ground.

-Sweep the cabin especially around the stoves and wood box

-Keep the out door barbeque picked up and also around the tables in the pavilions.

-The patrol campsite and especially the fireplace areas need a spring-cleaning.

-Clean up around the wood shed and stack the wood neatly.

-Clean up around the council fire area and keep the wood stacked neatly.

-If you want a workday the cabin needs to be cleaned: Floors, ceiling, windows and walls.

-The beach area needs the weeds removed and the sand raked.

-Leaves and debris removed from around the cabin.

-Ashes from the stoves and barbeque pit taken to the woods and buried not thrown under foot.

For more ambitious projects.

-We need wood chips in the high traffic areas of camp, the pavilions, and the barbeque area and around cabin.

-The causeway dam needs serious repair.

-Scheduled workdays always need helping hands.

-Permanently mark items of interest on the nature trail.
