SCOUTING'S CENTENARY CELEBRATION
In 2007, Scouting celebrates its worldwide Centenary. This is an
opportunity to promote the values, benefits and achievements of
Scouting to the world, and also for the millions of Scouts around
the world to make a real difference in the lives of others through
their Centenary activities.
The single theme for all events and activities for the Centenary of
Scouting is:
One World One Promise
The Simon Kenton Council’s Centenary Celebration will be held the
weekend of May 4 - 6, 2007 at the Ross County Fair Grounds in
Chillicothe, Ohio.
We
encourage you to send in your registrations early so you can join in
the fun and excitement of the ultimate scouting experience as the
Simon Kenton Council helps the world celebrate, “Scoutings Centenary
Celebration.” There will be specific programming such as shooting
sports, rappelling, climbing, pioneering, scouting museum, zip
lines, and service projects that will benefit the community to work
on.
On
Saturday the day will begin with “Scoutings Sunrise” in the
grandstand and after the cooking fires die down, the evenings
activities will begin with some special surprises, Order of the
Arrow dancers and end with a stunning display of fireworks.
We hope to make this a “Mountain Top”
experience for all Scouts and Scouters, and Non-Scouters too. The
Simon Kenton Council is opening the celebration up to the general
public on Saturday during the day and evening. Out of Council
scouting units are also welcome to join in the weekend long
experience. The activity program is at the heart of the celebration
experience. During the day, participants will experience a wide
range of activities which will in turn inspire them, challenge them,
and thrill them.
Check this web site frequently to get all the latest information on
programming and special guests as they are booked.

ATTENTION: Are you an adult Scouter who would like to attend the
event and possibly tent camp but are no longer registered on the
unit level? Because you are such an integral part of the Council or
District operations the event has created a special unit. CREW 441
is just for you. There will be a special area designated for the
Crew in the camping area. Please fill out the
registration form
for CREW 441 today and be prepared to have the time of your
life.
