Here are some typical questions the Crew is asked at Camp:
- How much does the Crew get paid for catering?
Nothing. The Crew are all members of Scouts Canada and Camp Opemikon is our
service project, service being the motto of Rovers. All of our time at
Camp in the off-season is volunteer.
- When is the Crew at Camp?
The Crew is up on weekends from September to May or June. Several members of
the Crew are hired to work at the summer composite camp and that is
why you see members of the Crew at Camp all year round.
- How can I become a member of the Crew?
You have to be invited to become a member of the Crew. Knighted
members of the Crew nominate prospective new members in the August
meeting. If 2/3 of the Crew agrees that the person would be an asset
to the Crew the nominated person is invited to join, as a squire.
After one season of work at Camp, if both the Crew and the squire
agree on becoming a knighted member, the squire is knighted and
becomes a full member of the Crew.
- What is a typical menu on the weekend?
- Friday Mug-up (9:30 p.m.): Hot chocolate and cookies.
- Saturday Breakfast (8:00 a.m.): Pancakes or French toast, bacon, juice or hot chocolate.
- Saturday Lunch (12:00 p.m.): Hamburgers, soup, potato chips, juice or milk and desert.
