June 6-11, 2010

The River Ranger Program takes place on the Eleven Point River in south central Missouri. The Eleven Point River has been recognized and loved for its rich history and outstanding scenic beauty since early settlement days.  The Eleven Point River meanders through the picturesque Ozark hills of southern Missouri. Its course is cut in the shadows of steep bluffs, through sloping forested valleys and low-lying riparian ecosystems.

The Scouts will camp in outpost camps along the river and take part in various programs conducted by the Ranger Program staff.  A Scout should participate in the Ranger Program if he is interested in increasing his appreciation of nature, camping and self-reliance. 

Individual Scouts can sign up for the Ranger Program as their second week in camp.  A total cost of $235 will be charged for the Ranger Program, which includes meals, program materials, canoe rental from private outfitter and Ranger Program patch.  All fees should be paid in full by May 1, 2010.  Adults are welcome on the program. 

Scouts should meet at 5 p.m. on Sunday at the Scout Lodge in the Camporee Area.  The program will end around 6:30 p.m. after dinner on Friday at the Ranch Headquarters area.
