Kempshall and Douglas Camps

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 09:00:45 -0700

Kempshall Camp and Camp Douglas have recently cooperated on a project that saw the formation of the Rockford camp #2229. This has not happened before in the division as far as I know. The cooperation extended to the point that both of these camps donated (transfered) men from their camps to help create the Rockford camp. In doing so, the men who transfered found that the new camp would be closer to their homes, and as such would allow them the opportunity to become more active members for the SCV and for the Illinois Division. I will be looking for similiar situations as we attempt to creat camps in Peoria, Springfield, Lake County and to re-energize other camps in the division with fresh blood and ideas. If you have an idea for the expanding the division share it-contact myself or Gale Red, or James Barr
