It
may be hard to believe but this September, we will celebrate our fifth reunion
of old friends at Camp Cedar Valley, near Viola, Arkansas. You're not
familiar with the Cedar Valley Homecoming?! Shocking but possible though
rare. This is a gathering of former scouters and families with connections to
"old" Cedar Valley near Hardy or "new" Cedar Valley at Viola. This includes
staff and campers; current and former scouts of all ages. It is the norm to see
long lost friends for the first time in 30-40-50 years from all over the United
States! We even have several scout troops join the fun. All the facilities are
available besides the 777 acres we all came to love. This includes the canoes,
fishing, rifle and shotgun ranges, archery, etc. Hike the old trails or just
sit and visit with old friends.
While all the buildings have been
renovated and have great sleeping space, this space is limited and available
first-come, first-served with priority to our older guests and those with
health issues. Once beds are filled, you can toss a sleeping bag on the floor
or your cot in a few areas. There are full hook ups for camper-trailers in the
Family Camp. We will also setup a few tents in the Family Camp from the
remaining camp inventory - first-come, first-served use. If you have tenting
and can camp however, we encourage that you do this to make more room for older
members or those with special needs that can no longer camp so easily. All
meals will be provided in the Dining Hall, prepared by our "master chefs"! Even
if you cannot spend the weekend, plan to join us on Saturday for all the fun
ending with the a traditional campfire.
Pre-registrations before August 13, are
$20/person. After that date they are $25/person. For the first time this year,
we are making a special provision for scouts coming with a scout troop. Scouts
with their unit will be $15/each (must register as a troop and fill out
individual registration forms) AND one leader for each eight registered scouts
will be free! PLEASE pre-register as this really helps us plan food and
activities.
All those who pre-register will have a chance to win
something unique and special. We're not saying what it is but there will be
several winners and it will be something that EVERYONE will wish they had when
the weekend is over.
