Fall Fellowship @ James Ray---September 5-7

Fall Fellowship was THE BEST!! The food was unbelievable. Mr. Johnson outdid himself on the ribs! Everyone participated in the various events, such as dodge ball, football, ping pong, swimming, and various eating contests. The lodge elections took a really, really long time followed by the Vigil Ceremony. All in all, it was a great weekend!!

Council Wide Callout/Ordeal: August 15-17

Wow!! If you missed the Council Wide Callout/Ordeal at Camp Wisdom, you really missed a good time! The Bistro Youth Staff was AWESOME! Of course, they were ALL from Canupa. Sam, Andrew, Jacob, Fred, and Michael baked some great cakes and made some very tasty cream cheese frosting. We now have new Ordeal Members, as shown in the picture in this post.

Canupa @ the Work Day

Hey, Canupa guys!! Mr. J. and I just got back from vacation. We had fun sitting around making regalia! Mr. J. finished two breastplates and I made a bandelier!! You will see them on Thursday night at our first Chapter Meeting for the new school year. I know that you are all excited to go back to school.....not! We had a pretty good turn out at the Work Day/Yanush Chapter Ordeal. We had some members who helped tear out the inside of the staff lounge. Other Canupa members were part of the Bistro Staff. We were excited to use the new kitchen and dining hall at Cherokee, but were surprised to find very few outlets on the walls. Then we found then on the floor under the work tables. All in all, it was a great weekend of cheerful service. Enjoy the pictures!! See you on Thursday night!!

Cherokee District Spring Camporee 2008

Work Weekend Ahead...

Your Canupa Chapter Adviser and I are hoping to see a bunch of you this weekend at Camp Cherokee. As you should know, Yanush is having a work weekend/chapter ordeal this coming weekend. They will be working on the renovation of the staff lounge. When they asked David if we would help them with purchasing the food for the event, we volunteered to come out and be the Bistro Staff for them. And, as you know, if you read the email, we volunteered Canupa to help us!! So, if you are able to come out this weekend, come on down to the new dining hall!!! We can't wait to cook something in it. We have taken the grand tour, but there is nothing like baking cookies in the new convection ovens!! I will be making cookies on Friday afternoon, so if you come out, come on down and you can have some!!! Hope to see you out there. If you can't come, you can enjoy the pictures that I will add to the blog with my next post!!
