These buddies have to stay together and every five minutes a check is made of the buddies. This system of guarding makes camp the safest place in the world to swim.

From this tank the water runs to. all: parts of the camp. Camp also has-.a doctor on hand at all times:. She has regular office hours but can be located in a i few minutes in case of an emergency. Dr. Briner is a friend of every= one at camp and she likes to be easily around boys, having two of her own. These are the things an old timer found on his first visit to Camp Pahatsi on the shore of Lake Kilborn. Let us reminisce for a few moments and recall the camp layout as it was years ago on the east side of Tamarack Flat. There was only one building and that a small inedaquate cook shack with a wood stove. Now the scouts have a modern kitchen with a stove burning fuel oil. Everyone slept in tents which weere pitched on the cold ground. Now the fel-» lows have wooden floors in most of the tents and cement floors in the rest of them. Our old swimming hole was about four feet deep and was located in the headwaters of the Yuba river. At the present location . boys swim in a lake. Boats are also — on hand for rowing. Our old water — system consisted\ of a few pipes which were continually . becoming clogged with sand and dirt as the water was taken from a small moun. tain creek: Our latrines were small affairs with burlap for the sides and no roof. Now the boys have a fine sturdy building. It is hard to real-— ize how rapidly improvements have ™ been made at Camp Pahatsi. Now. there isn’t a finer place in the Sier~ ras to send your: youngster than summer scout camp.

Everyone brought their bathing suits and sun-tan togs and the great-' er part of the day was spent in swimming and lounging at the Uhrig reservoir which makes a wonderful out-door bathing pool. At two o’clock a baseball game be. tween the married and single men began and held all interest until it ended in the ninth inning with a score of wenty seven to twenty , eight in favor of the family men, It is hoped that more of thése games: by the local men will be played during the summer months as they invariably draw a big crowd and maintain a keen interest as well as providing a world of fun and hilarity.

These buddies have to stay together and every five minutes a check is made of the buddies. This system of guarding makes camp the safest place in the world to swim. Camp also has an improved water Cold water is pumped from a well to a two thousand — gallon tank on-the erest of a small house, and system. pressure hill. From this tank the water runs to. all: parts of the camp. Camp also has-.a doctor on hand at all times:. She has regular office hours but can be located in a i few minutes in case of an emergency. Dr. Briner is a friend of every= one at camp and she likes to be easily around boys, having two of her own. These are the things an old timer found on his first visit to Camp Pahatsi on the shore of Lake Kilborn. Let us reminisce for a few moments and recall the camp layout as it was years ago on the east side of Tamarack Flat. There was only one building and that a small inedaquate cook shack with a wood stove. Now the scouts have a modern kitchen with a stove burning fuel oil. Everyone slept in tents which weere pitched on the cold ground. Now the fel-» lows have wooden floors in most of the tents and cement floors in the rest of them. Our old swimming hole was about four feet deep and was located in the headwaters of the Yuba river. At the present location . boys swim in a lake. Boats are also — on hand for rowing. Our old water — system consisted\ of a few pipes which were continually . becoming clogged with sand and dirt as the water was taken from a small moun. tain creek: Our latrines were small affairs with burlap for the sides and no roof. Now the boys have a fine sturdy building. It is hard to real-— ize how rapidly improvements have ™ been made at Camp Pahatsi. Now. there isn’t a finer place in the Sier~ ras to send your: youngster than summer scout camp.
