Tecumseh's 2011 Fall Camporee will focus on the basic Boy Scout skills that are time tested, exciting and FUN! The district's program committee has planned this event to give the Scouts attending the camporee the opportunity to practice their knots and lashings, fire building, and cooking skills, thereby offering opportunities for rank advancement and Merit Badge Achievements, as well as having lots of fun. After all, Lord Robert Baden-Powell said, “Scouting is fun with a purpose.” The camporee will be held at Camp Barney Q. Hopkins in Madisonville.
