Native Village of La-No-Che
New program area added for the 2006 Summer Camp season. This program will be directed by Jimmy Sawgrass, who is native Floridian and Muskogee descendant. Jimmy will be at Camp La-No-Che for seven of the eight weeks directing this village area.
We will have a native village set up close to the downtown camp area where the merit badges and troop time educational opportunities will be held. Jimmy will have additional camp staff that will work with Jimmy to teach the merit badge classes and help with the running of the village.
