Is this the old Cherry Valley Camp that the Boy Scouts used to run before they lost the lease? They lost the lease in the mid/late 70's if I remember right.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Yep same camp. LDS has been running it since I went 9 years ago and probably before that. For a scout camp the food is great and you can’t beat the kayaking and hikes on the hills overlooking the water. I had a blast.

I am not sure what their policy is on trans scouts. But I see it as a positive sign that people who are 'different' are now being allowed to fully participate in society.

Been there, done that. Remember Leathercraft?
Was also a Commissioner for a year--back in the 60's.
Those were the heydays of Scouting.
Yes those were the good old days. Remember them well.
Definitely better days as far as scouting numbers go and Leathercraft is now called Leatherwork but is still a merit badge!

I believe Leatherwork was always the correct term for the badge. My fifty year old memory is what is out of whack. :roflblack:
Gender-appropriate bathrooms aren't much of an issue out in the boonies anyway!

:agree: Opposite sides of the tree should suffice! 
In a prior post I asked about Cherry Valley, and the year after I first went I signed up to help at the camp. One of the requirements was to help with maintenance before the season opened. The project I worked on was dividing the bathroom/showers up to have both boys, and girls bathrooms/showers. This was back in the mid 70's, and do not remember the reason they told us.
I had a blast at Cherry Valley, I earned the canoeing, and marksmanship merit badge there. Also where I got inducted into the Order of the Arrow. Glad to see it is still being used for Scouting in one way or the other.
I’m going to guess it was to accommodate the female staffers but I suppose there could be other reasons too.
