Fall Reunion 2009
On September 11, 12, & 13, the Shawnee Lodge will hold its Fall Reunion at the S-F Scout Ranch. Our Reunion is one of the nation’s largest O.A. events. Inside this edition of The Lookout you will find a parking plan, weekend schedule, and a list of service projects each chapter will be assigned to for the Reunion. Throughout the duration of the weekend each youth member must have adequate adult supervision to participate. All Arrowmen must provide their equipment and meals, with the exception of Saturday dinner, if purchased.
The price of Saturday dinner and patch is $14.00 if paid before August 28 and $17 thereafter. The patch by itself is $10.00 and $12 after August 28. Both tickets include the ice cream social on Saturday evening.
The emblem for the Reunion is only available to those who purchase a ticket for the event. Without a dues base, the Lodge must rely on paying participants at Lodge events. There will be only 3,000 emblems available, so purchase your ticket in advance. The numbers of tickets sold will not exceed the number of emblems. Enclosed is your return envelope for making reservations. Make your reservations quickly, as the event has sold out in past years; meals and emblems are limited.

Additional Information
Parking/Camping Plan
The lodge has implemented the following plan to
insure that all Brothers and Candidates have a safe and enjoyable
weekend. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and needed.
-
Do not arrive before
4:00 p.m.; the gate will be locked. In the past, those arriving
early have created problems in the layout of the campsites and
chapter area headquarters. This is a youth run event and it is not
necessary or desired that a Scout leave school early.
-
Thanks to past service
projects by chapters, the east side of the main asphalt road will
again be open to head-in parking. Please be careful, it’s rough in
spots! Signs will be posted on the west side of this road
prohibiting stopping or parking. Obey them. We would like to keep
this road open for two-way traffic. No parallel parking on or next
to the main road.
-
Please make use of the expanded areas of the
camporee field west of the power cut.
-
The power cut road is open for one way traffic only.
Head-in parking is allowed on both sides.
-
Do not drive into the camporee area! No one wants to
sleep in your tire ruts.
-
No Traffic will be allowed during ceremonies! If
possible, leae your car parked once you arrive. No Scouts are
allowed in the back of a pickup trucks.
-
The S bar F Ranch speed
limit is 20 M.P.H. Due to the large number of people in camp, please
drive at a slower speed and use caution when driving on the roads
near the camporee area. Slow down on gravel roads. “One Scout’s life
is worth your time, please slow down.” The speed limit will be
strictly enforced.
