Camporee Costs
The cost of camporees must be self sustaining, and due to this we will be requesting each person who attends to pay their fair share. That means all adults and youth must pay a fee if they participate or not. If they are in camp they are part of the camporee. Staff will as they have in the past strive to keep the cost as low as possible so each unit can afford to attend. Any Unit having financial problems should contact staff before not attending due to the cost. Each unit will be able to register via a special link directly to the Camporee Staff at this website. Each Unit will also be required to pay their fee and also register on DOUBLEKNOT. (or in person at council headquarters) Save your receipt bring it to the camporee. No money will be taken at the camporees. Late fees maybe assessed by Council and the camporee staff has no control over this.
Website
Material for the camporee will be posted at this website in plenty of time for the patrols to download and get prepared for the camporee. We reserve the right to limit some materials so we can make the camporee a challenge to the patrols. Let us know if something is missing so we can add it to the website.
Camporee Staff
We are always looking for more Adults to join us in the planning and support of all camporees, so If anyone in your unit would like to join us PLEASE CONTACT US. We always welcome new staff. We hold planning meeting in various locations in NKY. We start planning the next camporee the day after the current one ends.

Each unit will be asked to help judge. Good News is you can select which events you want to judge. Click HERE to get more information.
Ku-Ni-Eh Lodge Totem Pole
One of the highlights of the camporee will be the dedication of the new OA Totem Pole to be placed near the Campfire Area. The Totem Pole has a special history in the Northern Kentucky Sheltowee chapter of the Ku-Ni-Eh Lodge. Many hundreds of hours have been put into it so we could celebrate the 100 year anniversary of Scouting by erecting this monument to Scouting. This special Totem is the second one made by Mr. Tim Hiatt of Independence, Kentucky. The first one is on the main road leading to the dinning hall at Camp Friedlander in Cincinnati Ohio. Made of 100 percent yellow pine it is all hand made and each piece is cut out and assembled in his garage with over a year of work. The Totem is the key item in the camporee patch and represents only the front side of it, It will have symbols all around the pole. Each symbol represents a piece of history to the lodge and chapter.
