for transportation to and from the
camp, and money for lunch
The children at each camp are
divided into four groups, or units,
consisting of the older and younger
boys, and the older and younger
girls. Adult supervision includes a
head counsellor in each camp, a di-
rector in charge of each unit, and
a junior counsellor for each unit.
An onlooker at the camp would
find the children engaged in activi-
ties running the gamut Of camping
experience. He would find the in
evitable swimming, even If it is
necessary to transport the children
to the most accessible pool. He
would see the children studying
birds, flowers, and animals on the
camp trails. He would see them
building fireplace, improving the
site OF the camp, doing craft work,
playing at make-b believe during the
time set aside for dramatics, de-
veloping skill in archery. In case of
rain, shelter is provided. The park
naturalists cooperate with the
counsellors in organizing activities
for the children. Each camp adopts
a theme, ranging from life on a
ranch to life in South Africa, and
the various units center their &C.
tivities around this theme. Maps,
costumes, and other items Incl
