Summer Camp 2009
Summer Camp 2009
2009, A record breaking year at Camp Durant!
Well, we could sit here and tell you how great our summer was at Camp Durant but we thought you rather hear it from the Scoutmasters that attended with their Troops. Here is what they told our Key Three at our weekly Key Three / Scoutmasters meeting.
“It's great to have bath and shower houses with flush toilets in each campsite”
“The waterfront program is great and a lot better than before. There are more lifeguards and more staff is certified, so we have more activities and more fun”
“Its great that the Dining Hall fits everyone at one seating. That creates more time for boys and adults to do other programs and activiites”
“Durant has grown from a simple "tent city" to a fantastic resident camp. But, it's grown with the times. Its easy to see the planning that's kept up with the attitudes, desires and needs of today's kids”
“The programs at Durant are fantastic. They're the best I've seen compared to other Scout camps. Durant is well ahead of other camps in program”
“I'm thoroughly impressed with the staff….from the top management to the youngest CITs. Everyone is helpful and very attentive”
“The mid-week progress reports on merit badges is an excellent idea. We can better help the boys”
“The tone of the staff is set from the top with Chris and Spencer and it goes all the way throughout the team. They're proficient and they interact with the boys”
“The campfire program is sensational. It's not the same old stuff”
“Very good support for
Duty to God program”
“Our unit comes from Tampa, Florida and we're very pleased”
“The variety of activities is excellent. They're good for all ages: Trailblazers, new merit badges, field trips, climbing, evening activities, etc. The afternoon activities allow the kids to laugh and have fun. “
“The instruction at the waterfront is top class. It's "Triple A"
“Maintenance is great. If a problem ever does occur, it's fixed immediately and correctly.”
“Class size is great. Excellent ratio of staff to campers”
