SUMMARY:HISTORY-MAKING SCOUT CAMPOREE TO BE HOSTED AT FORT VANCOUVER NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE
DESCRIPTION:The National Park Service is pleased to announce that Fort Vancouver National Historic Site will host the 2018 Camporee of the Fort Vancouver District of the Cascade Pacific Council\, Boy Scouts of America: “Road to Fort Vancouver: The Trappers.” The Camporee will take place on April 27 through April 29\, 2018. \n“The National Park Service has a long-standing relationship with the Boy Scouts of America. Our organizations share the goals of instilling the value of resource stewardship and conservation in young people\, and recognize that our young are our nation’s leaders of tomorrow. Both the Boy Scouts and the National Park Service aim to educate youth about our nation’s most precious natural and cultural resources and parks\,” said Tracy Fortmann\, Superintendent of Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. \nThe Camporee will showcase exciting scouting skills that connect to the nationally-significant fur trade and military history of Fort Vancouver. “We are anticipating that 350 scouts will be in attendance at this historic Camporee\,” said David Carsten\, Camporee Chief. “This will be a celebration of how scouts can come together with the National Park Service\, the Cowlitz Tribe\, and many other partners to engage youth in the nearly 200-year history of Fort Vancouver.” \nThe Camporee will also host a leadership-training program for scout-aged girls who are interested in becoming part of the scouting program. Girls will learn scouting essentials and compete with the other scouts in the activities of the Camporee. “The Cascade Pacific Council is an early adopter of family scouting\, which will include girls aged 11-17 in the scouting program scheduled for February 2019\,” said Mike Filbin\, Fort Vancouver District Chairman. “The Fort Vancouver District is taking the initiative to prepare these girls to take on leadership roles in scouting and in life.” \nScouts and scouting leadership will begin arriving at the national park on Friday afternoon\, April 27\, and will be staying overnight both Friday and Saturday nights. The scouts will camp on the historic Parade Ground in the same locations where U.S. Army soldiers camped on bivouac in the 19th and early 20th centuries. On Saturday\, April 28\, 2018\, there will be a full day of fun\, educational\, and competitive opportunities for scouts at various stations\, where scouts demonstrate their skills in orienteering\, Chinook trade language\, fire building\, lashing\, trade axe\, bucksaw\, and plants and animals. \nThe Cowlitz Tribe has collaborated with the Fort Vancouver District to kick off the Camporee on Saturday morning with its renowned drumming group\, tribal elders\, and religious leaders. During the day\, tribal members will teach the Chinook jargon trade language to the scouts. Tanna Engdahl\, Female Religious Leader for the Cowlitz Tribe stated\, “The Cowlitz Tribe continues to master its own history coming back to this fort as a sovereign tribe under its own flag. We come to stand with the youth of this nation at a time when girls are joining the scouting movement. This is an amazing trifecta of time when one views an ancient people in a historic fort overseeing a major shift in a century of scouting. The change-agents of the future will be seen here.” \nScouts who provide three hours of service to the national park and attend the Camporee will earn the National Park Service Scout Ranger patch. Many scouts have already accomplished these service hours earlier in the spring of 2018. “We are exceedingly pleased that so many scouts have provided service hours to the park so far\, including orchard maintenance\, painting\, trash pickup\, and other important work that really helps us and can instill the value of work and stewardship for these boys and young men\,” said Alex Patterson\, Chief of Maintenance of Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. \nIn addition\, The Eatery at the Grant House\, which is also open during the Camporee\, is sponsoring a Dutch Oven Cook-Off for the scouts and adult scouters. As the sponsor\, The Eatery at the Grant House will provide the ingredients for the cook-off as well as the judges. Each team will be required to cook an authentic 1845 dessert using the spices and ingredients that were available at Fort Vancouver in the early 19th century. \nWhile the camporee events are not open to the public\, the national park will still be open during the event. The public can still visit the Fort Vancouver National Historic Site Visitor Center\, the reconstructed fort\, and Pearson Air Museum. The public is also encouraged to watch the events from a safe distance and cheer on the scouts! If members of the public are interested in learning more about scouting opportunities in general\, there will be information available at the picnic shelter adjacent to the national park’s visitor center. \n\nContact Info:\nContact:\nTracy Fortmann\, Superintendent\, (360) 816-6205\, tracy_fortmann@nps.gov\nBob Cromwell\, Chief of Interpretation\, (360) 816-6253\, bob_cromwell@nps.govMore at http://go.nps.gov/camporee

SUMMARY:CAMP 51st ANNUAL MILITARY HISTORY CONFERENCE
DESCRIPTION:Vancouver\, WA \nWednesday-Sunday May 3-7\, 2017 \nHilton Hotel \nMilitary History Conference in Vancouver \nMay 3 – 7\, 2017  \nAs many people from Vancouver know\, the Vancouver Barracks was established in 1849\, when Washington and Oregon were the Old West; this was a generation before people called Arizona\, New Mexico\, and Colorado the Old West.  It was part of the proving ground for lieutenants to become generals in the Civil War.  The Vancouver Barracks were the jumping off point for soldiers headed across the Pacific during the Spanish American War and afterward.  It was the training ground for soldiers heading to fight\, milling spruce wood during World War I.  In World War II\, the Vancouver Barracks was a training center and transshipment point for all services\, fighting in World War II. \nUnfortunately\, many people outside of the Pacific Northwest are unaware of our military heritage and history.  That will change in 2017.  From May 3 – 7\, the Council on America’s Military Past (CAMP) will hold their 51st Annual Military History Conference in Vancouver\, Washington.  This conference is open to the public\, as well as CAMP members. The VBMA are partners with CAMP\, as well as many other  local military history preservation organizations.  In brief\, \nConference attendees will spend one day at the Vancouver Barracks\, attending various talks on military history\, followed by a tour of Officer’s Row\, and visits to the Pearson Air Museum\, and the replica Fort Vancouver Stockade.  They will also visit the nearby VA museum\, and the Vancouver Barracks Post Cemetery. \nThey will spend another day visiting the Washington/Oregon Coast\, where they will visit sites associated with Lewis and Clark\, as well as viewing the Coast Artillery posts of Fort Stevens and Fort Columbia. \nThe next day\, conference attendees will visit the the only surviving World War II  PT Boat in restored-original condition.  They will also see a World War II Landing Craft Infantry\, the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum\, and displays on the Oregon National Guard\, at Camp Withycombe. \nOn the final day of the conference\, attendees will travel north\, visiting the Lewis Military Museum\, the McChord Air Force Base Museum\, the Buffalo Soldiers Museum in Tacoma\, WA\, and historic Fort Steilacoom. \nPlease follow this link to their website for full details of the conference itinerary.  Please check back as the conference date approaches.  There will be more information on attendance prices and changes to the itinerary.  The VBMA looks forward to everyone’s attendance!
