As you read through the pages of the staff manuJl. note that each of these five areas is vitally importan t to your success as a staff member and ro the entire staff. By approach ing your job with an understa nding of coral job responsib ility and rh t' right attitude, you will be an outstand ing camp staff member for the Chickasa w Council. and the entire camp will succeed. You have an outstandi ng opportun ity this summer to affect the t 1ves of ochers. The good times you will have, the countless friends you make, and the numerou s Juries you will perform will provide you with one of the most enjoyable experienc es you will evt'r have. Good luck, and I look forward to working with vou as we begin the next year of Scour camping at Kia Kirna. Yo urs in Scouring, Scott Stephens, Director Kia Kima Scout Reservati on Chickasa w Council, BSA The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 3 �... - - --: ~ ·-- .....__,,,, ~- ~ ---- :~~- ::_:_,. ' ..:..... Purposes of Scouting Scouting ' s aims are essentially to build character traits of self-reliance, self-d isc ipline , sel fco nfidence, and self- respect: ro foster citizenship; and to develop mental and physical fitn ess. Purpose of the Outdoor Program Scouring's program reaches its full effectiveness in the outdoors because1. The outdoors is the best place for learning outdoor skills. 2. The outdoors is a great place for learning something about living with ochers. 3. Scours are rruly challenged in the outdoors , rhus developing leadership skills. 4. The outdoors provide high adventure . 5. The outdoors fosters an awareness of the natural world and rhe need ro protect it. Purpose of Council Camp The purpose of the council summer camp is to serve institutions by providing facilities and leadership for training units in the outdoor program activities and Scout method of operation . The camp is the laboratory of Scouring, where the council camp leaders, the unit leaders, and the Scours work together to learn, in developing better units , qualified Scourers, and skillful, selfreliant boys and young men. Here a boy learns to live in a democracy by working in rhe patrol and troop . The camp should also be a practical demonstratio n area for the best conservation pracnces. Purpose of Camp Staff • To provide every camper with a wholesome and safe camping experience. •To help campers develop a keen awareness and appreciation for the great outdoors and morivare them to assume rhe responsibility for living in harmony wirh nature. • To help fulfill rhe basic objectives of the Boy Scours of America through personal examples. •To demonsrrare an enrhusiasric Scouring spirit and good leadership. •To exemplify rhe principles of rhe Scour Oath and the Scour Law. • To promote a spirit of genuine friendliness, undemanding of others, and cooperation. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 4 to �.,__; -- - Kia Kima ' s purpose is fulfilled rhrough irs program , a rerm which refers ro rhree main areas of co ncenrrarion: I. Skills instruction Sraff members instrucr campers in dozens of merir badge s and rank advanceme nt rowards rhe evenrual goal of Eagle Scour. As a parr of a program area, you will have rhe opportunit y ro share knowledge and reach rhese lifelong skills . 2. Unit relations and support Much of the summer camp experience occurs righr in rhe troop site. Though st.. T involvemen t in this area varies according ro each troop, rhe unit counselor serves as rhe vital link in securing the needs of units in respect to camp equipment and resources, as well as providing answers and seeing rhar rhe unit rakes full advantage of rhe Kia Kima program. 3. Program enhancem ent Besides skills instruction and unit program, much of the magic of Boy Scour summer ca mp is provided by activities such as flag ceremonies , Songfest, opening and clos ing campfires, Vespers, and numerous orher afternoon, mealtime, and rwilighr .irnv1ries which enhance and add excitement to the learning atmosphere . The Boy Scour summer camp program 1s J rJrrne rship between the camp staff and the units which come to camp at Kia Kima. Onlv wh en rhese two work together-t hrough pre-camp planning, Scoutmaste r roundtable s ar K1J K1md , senior patrol leaders council meetings , and through the unit counselors -will rhe rr\lgra m succeed. Here is an in-depth study of each of the three areas: SKILLS INSTRU CTION With the exception of the equally im po rr Jn r co mmissary, dining hall , quarterma ster , trading post, and office staffs, each m em f-,er of the Kia Kima staff is involved in skills instruction . The areas of skills instr ud :nn. called program areas , are headed by a manager or director, and the entire progr rn1 nt each camp is coordinate d by its Program Director. Each of these men will be wn rk 1 ng cl osely with you throughou t the summer. The program areas offered by each ca mr .i:e Jquarics, ecology/co nservation, handicraft , and Scouccrafr, while the two camps shJr c- ::-:c- \hoo ting sports and Project COPENen ture areas. Whichever area you serve, knowledge , communic ations, and control are skills you muse possess to be a successful teacher. Here are \Orne guidelines for developing these skills: Knowledge & Preparing for Camp This skill is perhaps simplest. Well before vo u arrive at Kia Kima, you will know the program area in which you will instruct mern badges or skills. Before you arrive at camp , be sure char you nor only have learned rhe rop1c. bur rhar you can also reach and demonstra te it. If you feel uncornfon able about a ce rra1n skill, ask an adult leader or fellow staff The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 5 �'c member before you begin ro reach. You musr be thorough ly aware of rhe ropi cs of each requirem ent and confident rhar you will be able to answer questions your Scours mav ask. Be sure to get rhe merit badge pamphlet s for rhe badges you will reach, study rhem , and bring rhem to camp. Just remembe r rhe Scour motto: Be Prepared . In addition, consider reading up on your area in outside sources, visiting local resources such as nature cent ers and outdoor equipme nt dealers, and in general developin g a fir m grasp of yo ur ar ea. ~or only will yo u be berrer equipped to reach, you will probably develop imaginat ive ideas rhar exceed simple knowled ge-ideas on how ro make yo ur instructi on area and its content more appealing , your discussio ns more invigora ted . Consider props, demonstr ations, hands-on activity. Remembe r, above all else, that Scou ts come to camp to escape what they experience in the typical classroom . Use the outdoor setting and rhe informali ty of camp ro add humor, action, construct ive competiti on and gamesall the things which boys want bur do nor expect from learning activities . Before camp even starts, use your imaginat ion to develop these ideas, because when you arrive at camp, rhe pace of work will be mind-bog gling. The rime before camp allows your mind ro fill with dreams of the ideal merit badge course, and allows you time to tell your director what special resources (equipme nt , labor , rime) you 'll need to impleme nt your ideas. If it makes sense for your topic, consider our-of-cla ss presentat ions and special events ro suppleme nt your instructio n, such as guest speakers (foresters , wildlife manager s, water safety experts, Indian lore specialist s) and extra hikes, trips, or activities which may be either optional or required. Commu nication s Once you have the knowledg e of the ropics you will teach, it is even more importan t rhar you can communi cate this knowledg e to the group you will instruct. Simple things such as speaking clearly and without interrupt ion are importan t. Also, keep in mind these proven technique s for teaching a skill: • Senses Remembe r that all learning rakes place through the use of the five senses: seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling , and tasting. The more of these senses you can bring into play through your instructio n , the better rhe informati on will be learned. •Explai n and Demon strate Step-by- step, explain how a certain skill is done and what its purpose is, and then always demonst rate it yourself -the correct way. Make demonstr ations realistic to show their practical uses. • Let the Scouts Try A chance to rry each step as it is demonstr ated will fix it in rhe boy's mind and keep the session active. Always correct errors until the skill has been perfected. •Review Both just after and towards the end of the hour, review the skill by asking question s-not just restating rhe same explanati on. Also, playing a game or quiz contest is another mind-pro voking way to review and perfect skills. •Use Teachin g Aids and Resourc es Make full use of pictures, signs, displays, and reprints on a display board, and use larger-tha n-life teaching aids to increase visual awareness and add fun. Make use of all books and teaching aids that are available. Let each Scout try to do it in a natural setting to show the reality of all of Scouting 's skills. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 6 �•Add Humor Exaggera ting rhe wrong way to do somethin g or other light hum o r v-.·d! liven your session . Be careful nor to ridicule any of the Scours, though. •Minim ize Lecture s and Written Examin ations Borh go against the sp im o f camping and remind Scours of the world they have escaped by coming to camp . Instead, stick to demonsrr arion and review wherever possible. • Leading a Discussion Some of the merit badges and skills offered at camp are berrer suited to discussion rather that pure demonsrr arion or lecture. Discussion leading is a n arr in itself. Here are a few hints ro guide you as the occasion for discussio n arises: 1. Prepare for the discussion. Ler rhe whole group know the subject in advance so rhey can think abour ir. Talk with them individua lly ro discover their ideas . Have a written outline so you can develop a pattern of ideas to be covered, if possible. 2. Get the group to feel at ea se. Arrange rhe ·group comforta bly in a circle or square, facing one another. Lead rhe group to a relaxing location. Encourag e informal ity and good humor, and permit friendly disagreem ent when it concerns the point of discussio n , nor personalit ies . . 3. Give everyone a chance to talk. Draw our less talkative Scours with direct question s or asking them for suggesti ons . If possible, call them by name . Discoura ge speech-m akers by remindin g rhem of the limited rime or by suggestin g that they give others a chance. Call on people when they seem ready to talk. Direct rather than dominate the discussio n by easing yourself into the backgrou nd when the group gets the swing of ir. 4. Keep the discussion on track. If the discussio n gets sidetrack ed, bring it back to the main line by suggestin g more importan t topics . Stretch a point ro give individu als· credit for ideas develope d in the discussio n. There are no stupid questions : if a question is a bit off the mark, change it ro fir the topic; do nor simply say that someone is wrong . This will discourag e participa tion. Control Lase, there is rhe skill of controlli ng the group . This skill is importan t in order to make your message last and to free it from unnecessa ry distractio ns. If you lose control of your group, they will undoubte dly learn very little. There are several basic operation s involved in how a leader controls his group: • Never give an order you don ' t mean to enforce. • Rememb er that the responses of a boy are in action. Give your comman ds to stimulate action, not co check ir. Say "do chis" rather than "don't do char." • Give a boy time for reaction. Say "one more dive and all out" rather than "all out, quick." •Give reasons when you ask a boy to do somethi ng-he can see the point if you do . •Be honest in what you say and do-a boy's faith is your greatest help. • It is injustice and imperson ality rhat cause a boy to rebel: treat everyone fairl y and as a person. You get in return what you give to chose in your charge. • Think faster than the boys: use your older age and experien ce. See rhe possibilit ies before they become results. • Rememb er that Scouring 's ultimate goal is to produce leaders of a free society . Give Scouts as much freedom as you can, with your purpose being to guide rhem away from danger. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 7 �[_ _ ___ _ • Include extra activities in case you run out of time Flexibilirv is another kev a good lesson plan. Make sure rhar your overall scheme allows for ex.rra rime or c a s ~ s in which you run our of rime. • Review your plan and be open to adaptations Revise your plan as experience demands. Be willing ro include new ideas offered by fellow staff members and rhe Scours themselves. Consider asking rhe Scours to evaluate your performance in a written evaluation ar rhe end of rhe week, and consider their suggestions rhoughrfully. to Consult rhe BSA publication Summer Camp Aferit Badge Program Outlines for suggested lesson plans which you can adapt for your own use. The Program Area Another key element of skills instruction is rhe place where it happens: the program area . The program area often contains rhe arch enemy of good merit badge sessions, rhe picnic table. The table is a good place to start off, to rake role, and introduce the day, bur beyond that, it can slowly destroy attention spans, as Scouts find the flat lumber sears more and more comfortable and are gradually glued to them, their minds lost in ennui. The program area should be a showcase to pique the interest of those who visir ir, and ir should conrain interesting displays, games and courses ro tesr skills, and Scouting and the practices ir encourages in near-perfect display. Nature rrails, an Indian village in miniature, pioneering projects set against a model campsire secluded in the woods, warer games-all can be a parr of rhe interesting program area. Use rhe rime before camp to dream up new ideas for your program area, new equipment, displays, games rhar could be added ro make ir a place for learning and fun. A program area full of opportunities for hands-on learning can be a good starting point for an ideal merir badge program. Record Keeping Also involved in the skills instruction process is sound record keeping. Unir leaders and Scours musr be able ro measure their advancement progress while ar camp, so rhe staff must ensure thar accurare records are kept. A sample class record sheet is shown in the appendix, and it is important to follow these pattern in your own sessions. Be sure to make your class roster on rhe first day and to record daily attendance. Absences should be reported to rhe Scoutmaster. Have the Scours learn and fill in your name in the appropriate blank. Good record keeping protects your inregrity as an insrrucror, bur if you are careless in keeping records, records also provide accountability. Be sure to turn in your rosrers to your manager or director at the close of each week. UNIT RELATIONS & SUPPORT Equally important as good reaching is maintaining a good and helpful relationship wirh rhe units which camp at Kia Kima. Indeed, these units, borh from within and ourside the Chickasaw Council, keep Kia Kima alive and well, and they are our customers. Like any endeavor, Kia Kima has customers which ir seeks ro please and serve, and these include Scours, leaders, parents, and anyone else who comes into contact with our camp. The Boy The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 9 �•When a Scour defies your command , don't try to confront him. Instead , give ;i simple command which he can follow. •A leader will have no measure of success in directing the life of a child along rhe right path unless his personal example and habits are such rhar he leads by what he himself lives. Your personal example is rhe thing rhar determin es results. Ser rhe pace in everythin g. Only if we ourselves follow rhe rules will others follow them. \Xiatch your personal appearance. • Rememb er rhat staff is ultimatel y a job of service and responsib ility, nor of personal gain. Especially when on lifeguard duty or in the ax yard, human life can rest in our hands. • Helping, nor abuse, is the answer for a trouble maker. Being a "big brother ," listening to the Scours' problems can win you their friendship and admiratio n. Discipline Discipline of the Scout is the Scoutmas ters job! All disciplin e matters are to be referred to rhe Scoutmas ter to handle in his own troop, in his own way. (Please keep in mind that througho ut rhe Kia Kima StajfAfan ual, "Scoutma ster" refers to the adult leader in charge of rhe unit for the week.) Our real objective should be ro help the individua l make good. If you are forced to ask a Scour to leave your session after exhaustin g all other means, always follow up afterward s by visirin£ with rhe boy's Scoutmas ter and explainin g rhe problem. Hazing- defined as any for : of physical conract -is against Scouring policy and the law. Rememb er the Scour Oarh and Law in all relationsh ips in the camp . Here again, it is importan t to remembe r rhar rhe Kia Kima program centers on cooperati on between staff and the unit. In addition . always tell your director of any persisren r problems with individua ls or groups of Sco urs. [r 's a good idea, too, to have another staff member accompa ny you when you go to ralk to the Scoutmas ter, especially one who was present during the problem incident. Th is rw o-deep rule helps ensure you report things accurately and that your story isn't called 1nro question. Lesson Plans Planning is one of the most basic elements of skills instructio n. Every rime you seep before a group of Scouts in teaching meri r badges and skills, you should have construc ted beforehan d a lesson plan. Here are the elements of a good lesson plan: • Plan for the entire week first Consider the specific requirem ents and break them up over five days to create a balanced mix which allows for review and attention to relationships among requireme nts. •State your objectives for the hour Srate which specific requirem ents or pares of requirem ents you will try to complete Be realistic: try to choose activities which will require 45-50 minutes and which conswute a good mix of demonstr ations, explanati ons, discussion s, activities, and contests. Also . r rv to mix topics so that your lessons naturally review each other and do not get too repemive . • List each activity List and describe each activiry or exercise which will meet your objectives . Once again, try to focus on a realistic and balanced approach . • List the resources needed for the activities List whatever equipmen t, supplies, or facilities you will need for your daily plan, and check before you start to make sure you're prepared. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 8 �Unit Check-in Procedures for the Unit Counselor 1. Arrival: The troop should arnve in camp between 1 :00 and 3:00 p.m. The gare personnel will direct the unit to its CC, who will be waiting at the entrance of the main parking lot . The lJC should greet the leader warmly (he says "Welcome to Kia Kima!" before doing anything else) and introduce himself. lJnir leaders should clear with rhe business manager in the Administration Building on arrival, rhen speak with rhe Program Director of their camp to check programming for their Scours. 2. Go ro Sire: Escort rhe troop to irs assigned sire and allow the Scours to unload their personal equipment. The Scours and leaders should change for rhe swim check and prepare for rhe tour of camp and medical recheck. If the unit is new, be sure to explain to rhe leader the basic pam of rhe camp program. 3. Equipment issue: Ar some point, find our what the troop needs to check our from the Troop Issue Quartermaster, and help the unit get these supplies. 4. Medical Recheck: You should escort your unit to rhe Nature Lodge (Camp Cherokee) or the Hospital (Camp Osage) to have their medical forms checked by the health personnel. 5. Swim Classification: Next, rake your unit ro the waterfront where the Aquatics Staff will administer the swim classification. Here, you should help rhe staff make buddy tags and a unit roster. 6. Tour of Camp: Next, show the Scours and interested leaders rhe various program areas and the badges offered in each area . .\Jso, point our other areas such as the flagpole, trading post, game areas, and dining hall (Camp Osage). For Camp Osage units, the dining hall staff will explain the wrner svsrem and make table assignments. Be sure ro explain that areas for shooting sports . Vespers, campfires, and Venture Base/Project COPE are located between the two umps and explain how to reach rhese areas. 7. Setde the Troop in Camp: xplain rhe inspection process, fire and emergency plans , and mealtimes, as we las rhe schedule for Sunday n ight, including flag lowering, supper, Scourmasrers' Roundrable , and Opening Campfire. 8. Supper: Escort your troop to the dining halL or return to eat at its sire. Unit Check-out Procedures • Check-out time ranges from any rime after breakfast until about 10:00 am on Saturday. • Insure that the campsite is thoroughly clan and char rhe latrine has been cleaned. Be sure that the tents are empty and dear of lirrer and that the flaps are down. •Be sure rhat the troop has returned all ot its borrowed equipment in good condition. • Remind rhe leader to stop by rhe Administration Building ro pick up advancement materials and recognition (patches!) for rhe troop. • Say good-bye. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • I I �Scour summer camp program depends on cooperatio n and collaborati on between the unit and the camp staff ro produce rhe finest , most appealing program possible. In a wav , the adult leaders who accompany each troop fulfill a role nor unlike that of a staff membe r. helping develop the unit program and providing for che support and supervision of evenr Scour who attends Kia Kima. Custome r Service Just like any business , Kia Kima strives ro fulfill and exceed rh e expectat io ns of its campers, their leaders, and an yone else who enjoys Kia Kima 's program and resources . We must always strive to listen to the suggestion s , problems , and complimen ts and strive ro see char questions are answered and needs fulfilled . Never should our customers see us wirhour a smile, pass us without a friendly greeting, hear rheir problems without following through. Ir's all a part of making the people who camp ac Kia Kima feel that they share in what ic has co offer , free of problems and shortages and unfulfilled promises. Ir all begins with a warm "Welcome ro Kia Kima!" on Sunday and ends with the success of another week of summer camp. You, the staff member , are in a crucial position to exceed the expectatio ns leaders and Scouts bring with them to Kia Kima. That extra effort at preparing ro instruct in a merit badge, that extra daily visit to your troop's site-in che end, it's rhe liccle things chat count. The Unit Counselor (UC) The unit counselor is the direct represenrar1ve of rhe camp to the unit. He sees that the unit is checked-in and properly oriented ro rh e Kia Kima program, secures any equipment that the troop needs, and ears with che rr oo p d uring mealtimes. The UC should become personally acquainted with che adult leaders and visit che troop rwo co three rimes daily to see if the unit needs anything. As well , the LC should take personal interest in the unit by seeing chat it attends flag ceremonies and ot her program activities on time and char che Scours are aware of the opportuni ties ava il a ble co chem. He, above all, should sec the example in uniform, appearance , and arnon. and in all ways be helpful and take action if any need should arise. If the UC cann o t samfv a need himself, he should see to it char che Program Director or Assistant Progr am D1 rector knows of che problem, and still he should follow up ro see char it is solved . T he L"C should also deliver mail and keep the troop aware of any changes in the program sc hedule. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • I 0 �l •' Unit Relations Beyond the Unit Counselor Position Ir is equally important ro be helpful and cooperative in dealing with adult leaders even outside the UC relationship , for rhey are rendering much rhe same service as the staff in the camp program. If a Scourer wishes to observe an instructional session , be cooperative and even use his expertise. When earing with a troop , get to know the leaders and rhank them for their hospitality. Staff-adult leader relations are a key in getting troops to return year afrer vear . Your arrirude greatl y affects their opinion of rhe camp and helps to build the relari;nship of unit and staff leadership which is at the core of Scour summer camp . YOUTH PROTEC TION The Chickasaw Council, in keeping with rhe national Scouring crusade against child abuse , recognizes the potential for child abuse and its prevention at Kia Kima Scour Reservation . As all leaders, including camp staff members, are to be instructed in recognizing this problem, it is important rhar the staff be aware of the problem and its signs. Overview of Problem Child abuse consists of a wide variery of different problems, with about 2 million reported cases each year . Csually it is categorized as physical abuse , emotional abuse, sexual abuse, and neglect. Physical abuse is the injury of a child by other than accidental means. Emotional abuse is the constant belittling, criticizing, yelling at , and verbal tearing down of rhe child. Sexual abuse is any sexual activity berween a child and an adult, or sexual acriviry involving children in which the age, size, or other power factors berween the participants is unequal r:hild neglect is failure to provide necessary nurturing when resources are available to a . )o. Adolescents, as well as young children , are equally susceptible to all forms of abuse . Scour camp leaders may come upon child abuse in several ways. One of the more common ways will be the camper or staff member (under age 18), who, in the course of rhe precamp physical, is found to have physical signs of abuse which occurred prior to arrival at camp. The child may disclose abuse rhar happened prior to arrival at camp. The child may complain of pain or wear inappropriate clothing to cover burns and bruises. Children who are emotionally abused may be depressed or have low self-esteem. The most consistent indicator of sexual abuse is developmenta lly inappropriate sexual activity, as well as sleep disorders or depression . Neglect is characterized by inadequate clothing or consistent hunger. Unfortunately , some of rhe volunteer leaders that accompany the unit ro camp may be responsible for abuse, as may other Scouts or a member of the camp staff Whatever the circumstances, when abuse is suspected, action is indicated. Remember the Three R's of Youth Protection : 1. Recognize strategies and situations used by child molesters that place you at risk. Remember, a child molester can be anyone. 2. Resist attempts of child molesters since few resort to force. Resistance will stop most attempts at molestation. 3. Repon individuals who attempt to molest you to your Program Director or rhe Reservation Director. This helps protect young people and provides an opporruniry for the molester to get help. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 12 �Camp Policies Scour camps must be governed by rhe Scouring principles embod ied in rhe Scour Oath and Law. Any disciplina ry technique or program aspect not con fo rmin g: with these principles is prohibite d. • To rhe extent possible, isolated one-on-o ne activities berween adult and child should be discourag ed in favor of patrol or group activities . • The Reservati on Director is to be informed of any situation in which a camper has been so d isruptive or behaves in other ways that require strong disciplina ry measures . C orpo ral punishme nt should nor be used. • Scours will be properly clothed for the activities in which they are participa ting . ).; udiry is appropria te only in the showers - "skinny-d ipping" is nor appropria te. • Initiation s involving any form of physical hazing are prohibite d. • Staff members who suspect abuse in a unit should contact their Program Director or the Reservation Director as soon as possible. • Suspecte d child abuse of any form will be reported ro the authoriti es and, if substantia ted, the council will cooperate in the prosecuti on of the offender. These guideline s also help to protect the leaders of the camp from unwanted accusations of child abuse . Rarely, adults may be accused of child abuse that did not happen. BSA camps need to have policies that protect their leaders from these allegations. It is possible to provide that protectio n and continue to offer a qualiry program to the units within the council. All staff members must have certified tr a ining in the Youth Protectio n policies and guideline s of the Boy Scouts of America. Thi s training will occur during staff week prior to rhe opening of camp . Please consult the materials available in connecti on with this training for more informati on on chis virallv importan t subject. PROGRAM ENHANCEMENT Besides skills instructi on and unit acriv1t1es. Kia Kima allows Scouts numerou s other opportun ities for adventure . However , the1 r su ccess depends in large part on the role of the staff. Puncruali ry and spirit are required for qualiry activities. Be sure co become aware of the importan t rimes on the camp schedules shown in the appendix. Daily activities include flag raising, breakfast . lunch, supper, and flag lowering. As well, staff members will be assigned Twilight Acri vi ties to lead, such as Songfest s, volleyball, rwilighc boating, and canoe float trips . L' n i r counselo rs will be responsib le for escorting their troops co campfire s and Vespers , as well as helping out with other unit programs . Scaff members who are members of rhe Order of rhe Arrow will also have the opporrun iry to be a pare of the Brotherh ood Ceremon:v and Fellowship each Thursday night. As well, staff members will be granted rime-off during week nights on which they have no assigned duties, as directed by the Program Director. They must clear with the Program Director before leaving the reservation . The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 13 �--;;-- - . The following are job specifica rions for each position on the Kia Kima staff. As well, an organiZJt io nal chart is found in rhe append ix and serves as a " map " of rhe Kia Kima staff. B;t h are incl ud ed so that you will know your place on rhe staff and realize rhe funcrion of each sraff member. These duries, however, do nor include rhose which your area manager or Program Direcror may assign ro you ar any rime, nor do rhey include unir counselor o r Twilight Activities assignme nts . One of rhe fundame ntal principle s of staff organi-z arion is the chain of leadersh ip . Whateve r role you play at Kia Ki ma, you are in a position of leadership . When a quesrion or problem exceeds your area of leadersh ip, rhar is, if you need help dealing with somethin g , always look to rhe next level of leadership . For instance, if you encounte r as a ecology/c onservati on staff member encounre r a problem in your program area, always first go to the area manager, who if necessary will go the assistant program director, and so on. Paying attention to this chain ofleaders hip helps ensure that camp runs smoothly and that problems and questions reach rhe proper solution .

The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 20 �Meals Earing proper ly is essenti al in perform ing your duties with a high degr ee of efficiency, so staff membe rs must be present at all meals. As well, the staff should appear on time and properly dressed, as again, we set the exampl e in this highly visible locatio n. Proper table manner s, food distrib ution, and courtes y are marks of a mature staff and are expect ed always. Yells, songs , and the like should be given after the meal under the directio n of the Program Directo r in the dining hall at Camp Osage. Punctuality As a staff membe r, you are expecte d to be in attenda nce and on rime at all activiti es in which the staff is involve d, as well as to instruc tional session s. There is no reason for lateness in activities given basic plannin g, and illnesses should be reported to the doctor or Health Officer immed iately. Religious Services Remem ber the twelfth point of the Scout Law. Staff membe rs are strongl y urged to attend Vespers services each week and to provide grace before meals . Staff Cente r The staff facility is to be mainta ined accord ing to a daily cleanin g schedule, for both the bathroo m and the meetin g room portion s. 'When using the laundry equipm ent, staff membe rs should be careful not to disrurb others' clothes and should keep the area clean. Staff membe rs are expecte d to live up to their assignm ents and to respect rhe fact that the facility is for the whole staff when they use it. Telep hone Because of its isolate d locatio n , Kia Kima is extrem ely limited in phone lines. For this reason, and because camp provide s an opport unity to escape such modern devices, telepho ne use by staff membe rs should be limited to a few calls a week. The phone for use by staff membe rs is locared near rhe back door of the Admin istratio n Buildin g. If more than one staff membe r 1s 1n line, phone calls will be limite d to five minutes, and if a troop leader needs ro use rhe phone , staff should defer the phone to them. Time- off and Leaving Camp During rhe period of employ ment, the staff membe r 's full rime is at the disposal of the Reservar1on Directo r. Camp staff membe rs will receive one night off per week at which thev mav leave the reserv ation after progra m respon sibiliti es have been compl eted , and afrer the work is compl etely finishe d on Saturdays, the remain ing afterno on and even 1ng will be granted off, at the discreti on of the Reserv ation Directo r. As well, each staff membe r serving the entire season will be given one weeken d off, on which he may rerurn home at the comple tion of his paper work on Friday afterno on. In all cases, the entire sraff should be back on the reserva tion by 11:00 a.m. Sunday for the openin g lunch of the week . At all other times, staff membe rs are nor to leave the reservation withou t the consen t of their Progra m Directo r or the Reserv ation Directo r. Time-o ff privileges are under rhe comple te author ity of the Progra m Directo rs and Reserv ation Directo r and may be suspen ded as necessa ry. Staff membe rs should be aware that they represent Kia Kima, the Chickasaw Counci l, and Scoutin g when they leave the reservation, and should conduc t themselves in accordance with the Scout Oath and Law. Tobac co Produ cts The use of tobacco by those staff members under age 18 is prohib ited in accordance with Arkansas state law and thus serves as ground s for dismiss al. This ban include s smokin g, dipping , and chewin g. Adult staff membe rs, 18 years or older, who must use tobacco may do so only in the staff area or staff centeL Unifo rming Staff membe rs must follow the unifor m code at all times. The staff uniform falls into three classes: The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 23 �STAF F POLIC IES & REGU LATIO NS Admin istratio n Building The John Cooper Admini stration Buildin g is principa lly for the use of leaders and the camp's director s. Therefo re, staff member s should nor loiter there and should only visit for specific reasons such as meetings and phone calls. Alcoho l & Drugs The use, possess ion, or sale of alcohol ic beverag es, or of nonprescrib ed or illegal drugs is not a part of camp staff life and is strictly prohibi ted on Scout reservations and in Fulton Counry , Arkansas . We set rhe example for borh campers and other staff. Violatio n of this ban provides grounds for immedi ate dismissal. Autom obiles All staff membe rs under age 18 must follow their parents ' specific · instruct ions in order to drive their own cars or to ride in the cars of designa ted staff member s. When leaving the reservation, it is understo od char staff member s will ride only with those drivers indicate d on the card. For the most part, automob iles are nor needed at summer camp and should be left in che parking lots during the week. A speed limit of 1 5 MPH must be observe d at all rimes. Lending vehicles to other staff member s is highly discoura ged and nor condone d by the camp adminis tration. Flag Cerem onies Here again , the staff sets the example of respect and attentio n. Correct uniform should be worn, and presence and puncrua liry is a necessiry. Living Quarte rs Adequa te living quarters are provide d for each staff membe r. It is expecte d char they will be kept in a reasona bly clean, livable, pest-fre e conditio n. You will be issued a bed and mattress and should supply all remaini ng items yourself .

Manne rs, Langu age, Groom ing, & Person al Appea rance The manners and languag e of the staff when in the presenc e of campers or leaders should be impecca ble . Hair is to be kept neat and trimmed , and only those wich beards at the opening of camp should retain chem through the summer . Again, set the example . Earring s and ocher ostentat ious jewelry is not allowed . In all cases, your persona l appeara nce is comple tely under the authorit y of your Program Director .

The Lodge sponsors rhe Kia Kima leaders' orienta tion dinner and the summe r camp brochu re mailed to every Scour in the Chicka saw Counci l. Arrowm en conduc t camp promo tion and unit electio n visits to counci l troops , and the Lodge' s key officer s serve on the Kia Kima Adviso ry Board to help in the contin uous upgrad ing of the camp progra m.

The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 24 �, KIA KIMA HISTORY & TRADITI ON Kia Kima's history dares to 1916, when rhe first Scours from rhe newly formed Chickasaw Council camped on the Spring River in present day Cherokee Village . From that point , rhe camp grew rapidly, and Scours rode rhe train from Memphis to Hardy each weekend and hiked rhe remaining distance ro reach the "kamp," as it was called. Narural stone buildings mark the sire , and Scours were assigned to stone lodges where they spent days playing rield sports , on the tennis courts, at the waterfront on the river, and in countless other acriviries. As well, rhe Chickasah Lodge held its first Order of the Arrow ceremonies at the old camp . Kia Kima remained at this smaller sire until 1964. when Cherokee Village developer John Cooper offered the council a trade for an 860-acre sire on rhe South Fork River outside of his planned development. Kia Kima grew into its new property quickly, and the next year a second camp opened on its own lake across rhe river from the "Main Kamp," the original name for Camp Osage. The newer camp, Camp Cherokee, provided an outpost setting, while Main Kamp troops ate together in the dining hall. Since then , thousands of Scours have visited Kia Kima, and thousands more had camped at rhe original sire. To honor this accomplishm ent, the 25th anniversaries of rhe new camp and Camp Cherokee were celebrated in 1988 and 1989, and che 75rh anniversary of Kia Kima as a camp was marked in 1991. The staff has played a special pan in this hisrory , and today che burden for preserving camp cradicions lies mainly in che hands of sraff members. Like chose before you, you have chosen to serve a great camp, and rhis opporruniry is one of great pride. The staff has a strong tradition to maintain, and you can play a part in singing proudly cradicional songs like these: The Kia Kima Alma Mater High above rhe South Fork wacers, Reared agair: , r rhe sky, Proudly stands our dear old camp As che years go by.

Yo urs in Scouring, Scott Stephens, Director Kia Kima Scout Reservation Chickasaw Council, BSA The Kia Kima Staff Manual• 3 - - --: ~ ·- ~- ---- - ~ :~~- .....__,,,, ::_:_,. ' ..:..... Purposes of Scouting Scouting ' s aims are essentially to build character traits of self-reliance, self-d isc ipline , sel fco nfidence , and sel f- respe ct : ro foster c itizenship; and to develop mental and physical fitn es s. Purpose of the Outdoor Program Scouring's program reaches its full effectiveness in the outdoors because- 1. The outdoors is the best place for learning outdoor skills. 2 . The outdoors is a great place for learning something about living with ochers. 3. Scours are rruly challenged in the outdoors , rhus developing leadership skills. 4 . The outdoors provide high adventure. 5. The outdoors fosters an awareness of the natural world and rhe need ro protect it. Purpose of Council Camp The purpose of the council summer camp is to serve institutions by providing facilities a nd leadership for training units in the outdoor program activities and Scout method of operation. The camp is the laboratory of Scouring, where the council camp leaders, the unit leaders, and the Scours work together to learn, in developing better units , qualified Scourers, and skillful, selfreliant boys and young men. Here a boy learns to live in a democracy by working in rhe patrol and troop . The camp should also be a practical demonstration area for the best conservation pracnces. Purpose of Camp Staff • To provide every camper with a wholesome and safe camping experience. •To help campers develop a keen awareness and appreciation for the great outdoors and to morivare them to assume rhe responsibility for living in harmony wirh nature. • To help fulfill rhe basic objectives of the Bo y Scours of America through personal examples. •To demonsrrare an enrhusiasric Scouring spirit and good leadership. •To exemplify rhe principles of rhe Scour Oath and the Scour Law. • To promote a spirit of genuine friendliness, undemanding of others , and cooperation. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 4 ... .,__; -- - Kia Kima ' s purpose is fulfilled rhrough irs program , a rerm which refers ro rhree main areas o f co nc e nrrarion: I. Skills instruction Sraff members instrucr campers in dozens of merir badges and rank advancement rowards rhe evenrual goal of Eagle Scour. As a parr of a program area, you will have rhe opportunity ro share knowledge and reach rhese lifelong skills . 2. Unit relations and support Much of the summer camp experience occurs righr in rhe troop site. Though st.. T involvement in this area varies according ro each troop, rhe unit counselor serves as rhe vital link in securing the needs of units in respect to camp equipment and resources, as well as providing answers and seeing rhar rhe unit rakes full advantage of rhe Kia Kima program. 3. Program enhancement Be s ides skills instruction and unit program, much of the magic of Boy Scour summer ca mp is provided by activities such as flag ceremonies, Songfest, opening and clos ing campfires, Vespers, and numerous orher afternoon, mealtime, and rwilighr .irnv1ries which enhance and add excitement to the learning atmosphere . The Boy Scour summer camp program 1s J rJrrne rship between the camp staff and the units which come to camp at Kia Kima. Onlv wh en rhese two work together-through pre-camp planning, Scoutmaster roundtables ar K1J K1 md , senior patrol leaders council meetings , and through the unit counselors-will rhe rr\lgra m succeed . Here is an in-depth study of each of the three areas: SKILLS INSTRUCTION With the exception of the equally im po rr Jn r co mmissary, dining hall , quartermaster, trading post, and office staffs, each m em f-,er of the Kia Kima staff is involved in skills instruction. The areas of skills instr ud : nn. c alled program areas , are headed by a manager or director, and the entire p rogr rn1 nt ea ch camp is coordinated by its Program Director. Each of these men will be wn rk 1 ng cl osely with you throughout the summer. The program areas offered by each ca mr .i:e Jquarics, ecology/conservation, handicraft , and Scouccrafr, while the two camps shJr c- ::-:c- \hoo ting sports and Project COPENenture areas. Whichever area you serve, knowledge, communications, and control are skills you muse possess to be a successful teacher. Here are \Orne guidelines for developing these skills: Knowledge & Preparing for Camp This skill is perhaps simplest . Well before vo u arrive at Kia Kima, you will know the program area in which you will instruct mern badges or skills. Before you arrive at camp, be sure char you nor only have learned rhe rop1c. bur rhar you can also reach and demonstrate it. If you feel uncornfonable about a ce rra1n skill, ask an adult leader or fellow staff The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 5 ' c member before you begin ro reach. You musr be thoroughly aware of rhe ropi c s o f ea c h requirement and confident rhar you will be able to answer questions your Scours mav ask. Be sure to get rhe merit badge pamphlets for rhe badges you will reach, study rhem , and bring rhem to camp. Just remember rhe Scour motto: Be Prepared . In addition, consider reading up on your area in outside sources, visiting local resour c es such as nature cente rs and outdoor equipment dealers, and in general developing a fir m grasp of yo ur ar e a. ~or only will yo u be berrer equipped to reach, you will probably develop imaginative ideas rhar exce ed simple knowledge-ideas on how ro make yo ur instruction area and its content more appealing, your discussions more invigorated . Consider props , demonstrations , hands-on activity. Remember, above all else, that Scou ts come to camp to escape what they experience in the typical classroom . Use the outdoor setting and rhe informality of camp ro add humor, action, constructive competition and gamesall the things which boys want bur do nor expect from learning activities. Before camp even starts, use your imagination to develop these ideas, because when you arrive at camp, rhe pace of work will be mind-boggling. The rime before camp allows your mind ro fill with dreams of the ideal merit badge course, and allows you time to tell your director what special resources (equipment , labor , rime) you ' ll need to implement your ideas. If it makes sense for your topic, consider our-of-class presentations and special events ro supplement your instruction, such as guest speakers (foresters, wildlife managers, water safety experts, Indian lore specialists) and extra hikes, trips, or activities which may be either optional or required . Communications Once you have the knowledge of the ropic s you will teach, it is even more important rhar you can communicate this knowledge to the group you will instruct. Simple things such as speaking clearly and without interruption are important. Also, keep in mind these proven techniques for teaching a skill: • Senses Remember that all learning rakes place through the use of the five senses: seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting. The more of these senses you can bring into play through your instruction , the better rhe information will be learned. •Explain and Demonstrate Step-by-step, explain how a certain skill is done and what its purpose is, and then always demonstrate it yourself-the correct way. Make demonstrations realistic to show their practical uses. • Let the Scouts Try A chance to rry each step as it is demonstrated will fix it in rhe boy's mind and keep the session active. Always correct errors until the skill has been perfected. •Review Both just after and towards the end of the hour, review the skill by asking questions-not just restating rhe same explanation. Also, playing a game or quiz contest is another mind-provoking way to review and perfect skills. •Use Teaching Aids and Resources Make full use of pictures, signs, displays, and reprints on a display board, and use larger-than-life teaching aids to increase visual awareness and add fun. Make use of all books and teaching aids that are available. Let each Scout try to do it in a natural setting to show the reality of all of Scouting's skills. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 6 •Add Humor Exaggerating rhe wrong way to do something or other light hum o r v-.·d! liven your session . Be careful nor to ridicule any of the Scours, though. •Minimize Lectures and Written Examinations Borh go against the sp i m o f camping and remind Scours of the world they have escaped by coming to camp . Instead, stick to demonsrrarion and review wherever possible. • Leading a Discussion Some of the merit badges and skills offered at camp are berrer suited to discussion rather that pure demonsrrarion or lecture. Discussion leading is a n arr in itself. Here are a few hints ro guide you as the occasion for discussion arises: Control 1. Prepare for the discussion. Ler rhe whole group know the subject in advance so rhey can think abour ir. Talk with them individually ro discover their ideas . Have a written outline so you can develop a pattern of ideas to be covered, if possible. 2. Get the group to feel at ea se. Arrange rhe ·group comfortably in a circle or square, facing one another. Lead rhe group to a relaxing location. Encourage informality and good humor, and permit friendly disagreement when it concerns the point of discussion , nor personalities . . 3. Give everyone a chance to talk. Draw our less talkative Scours with direct questions or asking them for suggestions . If possible, call them by name . Discourage speech-makers by reminding rhem of the limited rime or by suggesting that they give others a chance. Call on people when they seem ready to talk. Direct rather than dominate the discussion by easing yourself into the background when the group gets the swing of ir. 4. Keep the discussion on track. If the discussion gets sidetracked, bring it back to the main line by suggesting more important topics . Stretch a point ro give individuals· credit for ideas developed in the discussion. There are no stupid questions: if a question is a bit off the mark, change it ro fir the topic; do nor simply say that someone is wrong . This will discourage participation. Lase, there is rhe skill of controlling the group . This skill is important in order to make your message last and to free it from unnecessary distractions. If you lose control of your group, they will undoubtedly learn very little. There are several basic operations involved in how a leader controls his group: • Never give an order you don' t mean to enforce. • Remember that the responses of a boy are in action. Give your commands to stimulate action, not co check ir. Say "do chis" rather than "don't do char." • Give a boy time for reaction. Say "one more dive and all out" rather than " all out, quick." •Give reasons when you ask a boy to do something-he can see the point if you do . •Be honest in what you say and do-a boy' s faith is your greatest help. • It is injustice and impersonality rhat cause a boy to rebel: treat everyone fairl y and as a person. You get in return what you give to chose in your charge. • Think faster than the boys: use your older age and experience. See rhe possibilities before they become results. • Remember that Scouring's ultimate goal is to produce leaders of a free society . Give Scouts as much freedom as you can, with your purpose being to guide rhem away from danger. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 7 [_ _ ___ _ • Include extra activities in case you run out of time Flexibilirv is another kev to a good lesson plan. Make sure rhar your overall scheme allows for ex.rra rime or c a s ~ s in which you run our of rime. • Review your plan and be open to adaptations Revise your plan as experience demands. Be willing ro include new ideas offered by fellow staff members and rhe Scours themselves. Consider asking rhe Scours to evaluate your performance in a written evaluation ar rhe end of rhe week, and consider their suggestions rhoughrfully. Consult rhe BSA publication Summer Camp Aferit Badge Program Outlines for suggested lesson plans which you can adapt for your own use. The Program Area Another key element of skills instruction is rhe place where it happens: the program area . The program area often contains rhe arch enemy of good merit badge sessions, rhe picnic table. The table is a good place to start off, to rake role, and introduce the day, bur beyond that, it can slowly destroy attention spans, as Scouts find the flat lumber sears more and more comfortable and are gradually glued to them, their minds lost in ennui. The program area should be a showcase to pique the interest of those who visir ir, and ir should conrain interesting displays, games and courses ro tesr skills, and Scouting and the practices ir encourages in near-perfect display. Nature rrails, an Indian village in miniature, pioneering projects set against a model campsire secluded in the woods, warer games-all can be a parr of rhe interesting program area. Use rhe rime before camp to dream up new ideas for your program area, new equipment, displays, games rhar could be added ro make ir a place for learning and fun. A program area full of opportunities for hands-on learning can be a good starting point for an ideal merir badge program. Record Keeping Also involved in the skills instruction process is sound record keeping. Unir leaders and Scours musr be able ro measure their advancement progress while ar camp, so rhe staff must ensure thar accurare records are kept. A sample class record sheet is shown in the appendix, and it is important to follow these pattern in your own sessions. Be sure to make your class roster on rhe first day and to record daily attendance. Absences should be reported to rhe Scoutmaster. Have the Scours learn and fill in your name in the appropriate blank. Good record keeping protects your inregrity as an insrrucror, bur if you are careless in keeping records, records also provide accountability. Be sure to turn in your rosrers to your manager or director at the close of each week. UNIT RELATIONS & SUPPORT Equally important as good reaching is maintaining a good and helpful relationship wirh rhe units which camp at Kia Kima. Indeed, these units, borh from within and ourside the Chickasaw Council, keep Kia Kima alive and well, and they are our customers. Like any endeavor, Kia Kima has customers which ir seeks ro please and serve, and these include Scours, leaders, parents, and anyone else who comes into contact with our camp. The Boy The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 9 •When a Scour defies your command, don't try to confront him. Instead , give ;i simple command which he can follow . •A leader will have no measure of success in directing the life of a child along rhe right path unless his personal example and habits are such rhar he leads by what he himself lives. Your personal example is rhe thing rhar determines results. Ser rhe pace in everything. Only if we ourselves follow rhe rules will others follow them. \Xiat ch your personal appearance. • Remember rhat staff is ultimately a job of service and responsibility, nor of personal gain. Especially when on lifeguard duty or in the ax yard, human life can rest in our hands . • Helping, nor abuse, is the answer for a trouble maker. Being a "big brother ," listening to the Scours ' problems can win you their friendship and admiration. Discipline Discipline of the Scout is the Scoutmasters job! All discipline matters are to be referred to rhe Scoutmaster to handle in his own troop, in his own way. (Please keep in mind that throughout rhe Kia Kima StajfAfanual, "Scoutmaster" refers to the adult leader in charge of rhe unit for the week.) Our real objective should be ro help the individual make good. If you are forced to ask a Scour to leave your session after exhausting all other means, always follow up afterwards by visirin£ with rhe boy's Scoutmaster and explaining rhe problem. Hazing-defined as any for : of physical conract-is against Scouring policy and the law. Remember the Scour Oarh and Law in all relationships in the camp . Here again, it is important to remember rhar rhe Kia Kima program centers on cooperation between staff and the unit. In addition . always tell your director of any persisrenr problems with individuals or groups of Sco urs. [r ' s a good idea, too, to have another staff member accompany you when you go to ralk to the Scoutmaster, especially one who was present during the problem incident. Th is rw o -deep rule helps ensure you report things accurately and that your story isn't called 1nro question. Lesson Plans Planning is one of the most basic elements of skills instruction. Every rime you seep before a group of Scouts in teaching meri r badges and skills, you should have constructed beforehand a lesson plan. Here are the elements of a good lesson plan: • Plan for the entire week first Consider the specific requirements and break them up over five days to create a balanced mix which allows for review and attention to relationships among requirements. •State your objectives for the hour Srate which specific requirements or pares of requirements you will try to complete Be realistic: try to choose activities which will require 45-50 minutes and which conswute a good mix of demonstrations, explanations, discussions, activities, and contests. Also . r rv to mix topics so that your lessons naturally review each other and do not get too repemive . • List each activity List and describe each activiry or exercise which will meet your objectives. Once again, try to focus on a realistic and balanced approach. • List the resources needed for the activities List whatever equipment, supplies, or facilities you will need for your daily plan, and check before you start to make sure you're prepared. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 8 Unit Check-in Procedures for the Unit Counselor 1.

The Kia Kima Staff Manual • I I Scour summer camp program depends on cooperation and collaboration between the unit and the camp staff ro produce rhe finest , most appealing program possible. In a wav , t h e adult leaders who accompany each troop fulfill a role nor unlike that of a staff me mbe r. helping develop the unit program and providing for che support and supervision of eve nr Scour who attends Kia Kima. Customer Service Just like any business , Kia Kima strives ro fulfill and exceed rh e expe ctatio ns of its campers, their leaders, and an yone else who enjoys Kia Kima 's program and resources . We must always strive to listen to the suggestions , problems , and compliments and strive ro see char questions are answered and needs fulfilled . Never should our customers see us wirhour a smile, pass us without a friendly greeting, hear rheir problems without following through. Ir ' s all a part of making the people who camp ac Kia Kima feel that they share in what ic has co offer , free of problems and shortages and unfulfilled promises. Ir all begins with a warm " Welcome ro Kia Kima!" on Sunday and ends with the success of another week of summer camp. You, the staff member , are in a crucial position to exceed the expectations leaders and Scouts bring with them to Kia Kima. That extra effort at preparing ro instruct in a merit badge, that extra daily visit to your troop's site-in che end, it' s rhe liccle things chat count . The Unit Counselor (UC) The unit counselor is the direct represenrar1ve o f rhe camp to the unit. He sees that the unit is checked-in and properly oriented ro rh e Kia Kima program, secures any equipment that the troop needs, and ears with che rr oo p d uring mealtimes. The UC should become personally acquainted with che adult lead ers and visit che troop rwo co three rimes daily to see if the unit needs anything. As well , the LC should take personal interest in the unit by seeing chat it attends flag ceremonies and ot her program activities on time and ch a r che Scours are aware of the opportunities a va il a ble co chem. He, above all, should sec the example in uniform, appearance , and arnon. and in all ways be helpful and take action if any need should arise. If the UC cann o t samfv a need himself, he should see to it char che Program Director or Assistant Progr am D1 rector knows of che problem, and still he should follow up ro see char it is solved . T he L"C should also deliver mail and keep the troop aware of any changes in the program sc hedule. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • I 0 •' Unit Relations Beyond the Unit Counselor Position Ir is equally important ro be helpful a nd cooperative in dealing with adult leaders eve n outside the UC relationship , for rhey are rendering much rhe same service as the staff in the camp program. If a Scourer wishes to observe an instructional session , be cooperative and even use his expertise . When earing with a troop , get to know the leaders and rhank them for their hospitality. Staff-adult leader relations are a key in getting troops to return year afr e r vear . Your arrirude greatl y affects their opinion of rhe camp and helps to build the relari;nship o f unit and staff leadership which is at the core of Scour summer camp . YOUTH PROTECTION The Chickasaw Council, in keeping with rhe national Scouring crusade against child abuse , recognizes the potential for child abuse and its prevention at Kia Kima Scour Reservation . As all leaders, including camp staff members, are to be instructed in recognizing this problem, it is important rhar the staff be aware of the problem and its signs. Overview of Problem Child abuse consists of a wide variery of different problems, with about 2 million reported cases each year . Csually it is categorized as physical abuse , emotional abuse, sexual abuse, and neglect. Physical abuse is the injury of a child by other than accidental means. Emotional abuse is the constant belittling, criticizing, yelling at , and verbal tearing down of rhe child. Sexual abuse is any sexual activity berween a child and an adult, or sexual acriviry involving children in which the age, size, or other power factors berween the participants is unequal r:hild neglect is failure to provide necessary nurturing when resources are available to a . )o . Adolescents, as well as young children , are equally susceptible to all forms of abuse . Scour camp leaders may come upon child abuse in several ways. One of the more common ways will be the camper or staff member ( under age 18), who, in the course of rhe precamp physical, is found to have physical signs of abuse which occurred prior to arrival at camp. The child may disclose abuse rhar happened prior to arrival at camp. The child may complain of pain or wear inappropriate clothing to cover burns and bruises. Children who are emotionally abused may be depressed or have low self-esteem. The most consistent indicator of sexual abuse is developmentally inappropriate sexual activity, as well as sleep disorders or depression . Neglect is characterized by inadequate clothing or consistent hunger. Unfortunately, some of rhe volunteer leaders that accompany the unit ro camp may be responsible for abuse, as may other Scouts or a member of the camp staff Whatever the circumstances, when abuse is suspected, action is indicated. Remember the Three R's of Youth Protection : 1. Recognize strategies and situations used by child molesters that place you at risk. Remember, a child molester can be anyone. 2. Resist attempts of child molesters since few resort to force. Resistance will stop most attempts at molestation. 3. Repon individuals who attempt to molest you to your Program Director or rhe Reservation Director. This helps protect young people and provides an opporruniry for the molester to get help. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 12 l Camp Policies Scour camps must be governed by rhe Scouring principles embod ied in rhe Scour Oath and Law . Any disciplinary technique or program aspect not con fo rmin g: with these principles is prohibited. • To rhe extent possible, isolated one-on-one activities berween adult and child should be discouraged in favor of patrol or group activities . • The Reservation Director is to be informed of any situation in which a camper has be en so d isruptive or behaves in other ways that require strong disciplinary measures . C orp o ral punishment should nor be used. • Scours will be properly clothed for the activities in which they are participating. ).; udiry is appropriate only in the showers- "skinny-dipping" is nor appropriate. • Initiations involving any form of physical hazing are prohibited. • Staff members who suspect abuse in a unit should contact their Program Director or the Reservation Director as soon as possible. • Suspected child abuse of any form will be reported ro the authorities and, if substantiated, the council will cooperate in the prosecution of the offender. These guidelines also help to protect the leaders of the camp from unwanted accusations of child abuse . Rarely, adults may be accused of child abuse that did not happen. BSA camps need to have policies that protect their leaders from these allegations. It is possible to provide that protection and continue to offer a qualiry program to the units within the council. All staff members must have certified tr a ining in the Youth Protection policies and guidelines of the Boy Scouts of America. Thi s training will occur during staff week prior to rhe opening of camp . Please consult the materials available in connection with this training for more information on chis virallv important subject. PROGRAM ENHANCEMENT Besides skills instruction and unit ac riv1t1es. Kia Kima allows Scouts numerous other opportunities for adventure. However , the1 r su ccess depends in large part on the role of the staff. Puncrualiry and spirit are required for qualiry activities. Be sure co become aware of the important rimes on the camp schedules shown in the appendix. Daily activities include flag raising, breakfast . lunch, supper, and flag lowering. As well, staff members will be assigned Twilight Acri vi ties to lead, such as Songfests, volleyball, rwilighc boating, and canoe float trips. L' n i r counselors will be responsible for escorting their troops co campfires and Vespers , as well as helping out with other unit programs . Scaff members who are members of rhe Order of rhe Arrow will also have the opporruniry to be a pare of the Brotherhood Ceremon:v and Fellowship each Thursday night. As well, staff members will be granted rime-off during week nights on which they have no assigned duties, as directed by the Program Director. They must clear with the Program Director before leaving the reservation . The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 13 --;;-- - . The following are job specificarions for each position on the Kia Kima staff. As well, a n org aniZJt io nal chart is found in rhe append ix and serves as a " map " of rhe Kia Kima staff. B;t h a re i n cl ud ed so that you will know your place on rhe staff and realize rhe funcrion of ea ch sraff member. These duries, however, do nor include rhose which your area manager or Program Direcror may assign ro you ar any rime, nor do rhey include unir coun selor o r Twilight Activities assignments . One of rhe fundamental principles of staff organi-zarion is the chain of leadership . Whatever role you play at Kia Ki ma, you are in a position of leadership. When a quesrion or problem exceeds your area of leadership, rhar is, if you need help dealing with something , always look to rhe next level of leadership . For instance, if you encounter as a ecology/conservation staff member encounrer a problem in your program area, always first go to the area manager, who if necessary will go the assistant program director, and so on. Paying attention to this chain ofleadership helps ensure that camp runs smoothly and that problems and questions reach rhe proper solution.

As well, the staff should appear on time and properly dressed, as again, we set the example in this highly visible location. Proper table manners, food distribution, and courtesy are marks of a mature staff and are expected always. Yells, songs , and the like should be given after the meal under the direction of the Program Director in the dining hall at Camp Osage. Punctuality As a staff member, you are expected to be in attendance and on rime at all activities in which the staff is involved, as well as to instructional sessions.

Religious Services Remember the twelfth point of the Scout Law. Staff members are strongly urged to attend Vespers services each week and to provide grace before meals . Staff Center The staff facility is to be maintained according to a daily cleaning schedule, for both the bathroom and the meeting room portions. 'When using the laundry equipment, staff members should be careful not to disrurb others' clothes and should keep the area clean. Staff members are expected to live up to their assignments and to respect rhe fact that the facility is for the whole staff when they use it. Telephone Because of its isolated location , Kia Kima is extremely limited in phone lines. For this reason, and because camp provides an opportunity to escape such modern devices, telephone use by staff members should be limited to a few calls a week. The phone for use by staff members is locared near rhe back door of the Administration Building. If more than one staff member 1s 1n line, phone calls will be limited to five minutes, and if a troop leader needs ro use rhe phone , staff should defer the phone to them. Time-off and Leaving Camp During rhe period of employment, the staff member 's full rime is at the disposal of the Reservar1on Director. Camp staff members will receive one night off per week at which thev mav leave the reservation after program responsibilities have been completed , and afrer the work is completely finished on Saturdays, the remaining afternoon and even 1 ng will be granted off, at the discretion of the Reservation Director. As well, each staff member serving the entire season will be given one weekend off, on which he may rerurn home at the completion of his paper work on Friday afternoon. In all cases, the entire sraff should be back on the reservation by 11:00 a .m. Sunday for the opening lunch of the week . At all other times, staff members are nor to leave the reservation without the consent of their Program Director or the Reservation Director. Time-off privileges are under rhe complete authority of the Program Directors and Reservation Director and may be suspended as necessary. Staff members should be aware that they represent Kia Kima, the Chickasaw Council, and Scouting when they leave the reservation, and should conduct themselves in accordance with the Scout Oath and Law. Tobacco Products The use of tobacco by those staff members under age 18 is prohibited in accordance with Arkansas state law and thus serves as grounds for dismissal. This ban includes smoking, dipping, and chewing . Adult staff members, 18 years or older, who must use tobacco may do so only in the staff area or staff centeL Uniforming Staff members must follow the uniform code at all times. The staff uniform falls into three classes: The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 23 STAFF POLICIES & REGULATIONS Administration Building The John Cooper Administration Building is principally for the use of leaders and the camp's directors. Therefore, staff members should nor loiter there and should only visit for specific reasons such as meetings and phone calls. Alcohol & Drugs The use, possession, or sale of alcoholic beverages, or of nonprescribed or illegal drugs is not a part of camp staff life and is strictly prohibited on Scout reservations and in Fulton Counry, Arkansas . We set rhe example for borh campers and other staff. Violation of this ban provides grounds for immediate dismissal. Automobiles All staff members under age 18 must follow their parents' specific · instructions in order to drive their own cars or to ride in the cars of designated staff members. When leaving the reservation, it is understood char staff members will ride only with those drivers indicated on the card. For the most part, automobiles are nor needed at summer camp and should be left in che parking lots during the week. A speed limit of 1 5 MPH must be observed at all rimes. Lending vehicles to other staff members is highly discouraged and nor condoned by the camp administration. Flag Ceremonies Here again , the staff sets the example of respect and attention. Correct uniform should be worn, and presence and puncrualiry is a necessiry. Living Quarters Adequate living quarters are provided for each staff member. It is expected char they will be kept in a reasonably clean, livable, pest-free condition. You will be issued a bed and mattress and should supply all remaining items yourself. You will be responsible for damage to, or defacement of living quarters. The Reservation Director and your Program Director will handle check-in and check-out procedures. Please note the following conditions: • After 11 :00 p.m. each night, all lights and audible music should be turned off, and quiet should be observed. • If you do not use headphones, keep all music to a reasonable level. • Be sensible and conserve electricity; keep electrical appliances and che like to a minimum, and share with other staff members. • All furnirure and equipment must be approved by the Program Director. • There should be no large or bright signs outside tents. • Any change in tent arrangements must be approved by your Program Director. • No campers are allowed in che scaff area or staff center, and use discretion when bringing your parents into the area. • No flames are allowed in or near staff rents . • Litter shall not accumulate in or surrounding the staff area. • It is imperative that each staff member stay our of ochers' personal belongings and quaners without permission. Manners, Language, Grooming, & Personal Appearance The manners and language of the staff when in the presence of campers or leaders should be impeccable . Hair is to be kept neat and trimmed, and only those wich beards at the opening of camp should retain chem through the summer. Again, set the example. Earrings and ocher ostentatious jewelry is not allowed. In all cases, your personal appearance is completely under the authority of your Program Director. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 22 .".- ,.. . . ; .. , ORDER OF THE ARROW In 1915 rhe Order of rhe Arrow was founded ac a Scour summer camp near Philadelphia , in many ways similar to Kia Kima, by rwo camp staff members who wanred co create a way for Scours whose camping skills and adherence ro rhe Scout Oath and Law were worrhy of recognition . Today the Order sci!! has camp and honoring campers at rhe heart of its purpose. Therefore ic is only right rhac camp staff members should be the ideal Arrowmen, and as a camp staff member activeness in the Order's program is a great way ro go above and beyond your immediate responsibilities. Ac Kia Kima, che Chickasah Lodge of rhe Order of che Arrow is an integral part of the summer camp. Often, its officers and committee members serve on the staff. The Lodge sponsors rhe Kia Kima leaders' orientation dinner and the summer camp brochure mailed to every Scour in the Chickasaw Council. Arrowmen conduct camp promotion and unit election visits to council troops, and the Lodge's key officers serve on the Kia Kima Advisory Board to help in the continuous upgrading of the camp program. The Lodge schedules service weekends at the camp co set up and cake down . During che camping season, camp staff Arrowmen conduct srill more elections, provide the Brotherhood Ceremony for qualified members, sponso r a weekly fellowship for members, and stage a call-our ceremony to honor chose campers ele ct ed as candidates for membership in rhe Order. If you wane participate in the Order of the Arrow's activities before and during camp, you will have the opportunity when a lodge officer presents rhe chance at a staff meeting. Ir's a great way to fulfill the Obligation and to serve as an ideal staff member. CAMP STAFF EXPLORER POST Any camp staff member may join rhe Kia Ki ma staff Explorer post. The post is a Scouring unit which seeks to promore Kia Ki ma , ro find new ways to improve staff services and the camp program, to maintain Kia K1ma traditions, to increase rhe personal bonds among the staff, and co have fun. Anyone who is interested in joining rhe posr will have chat opportunity during the camp season. You may still remain an active member in your troop while in the post. STAFF ACTIVITY After each camping season, staff members who have performed at the highest levels of dedication, hard work, and customer satisfaction receive an invitation co attend the allexpense paid staff activity. The weekend activity is a great chance to spend time with staff members before returning to the "real world.

Some Other Helpful Rules • If you don't know, or aren't sure, ask . • If it's noc yours, don't "borrow," move , or otherwise mess with it. • Sometimes the mosc important rules are the unwrirren ones, so always listen. Ignorance is nor an excuse. The Kia Kima Staff Manual • 24 r KIA KIMA HISTORY & TRADITION Kia Kima's history dares to 1916, when rhe first Scours from rhe newly formed Chickasaw Council camped on the Spring River in present day Cherokee Village . From that point , rhe camp grew rapidly, and Scours rode rhe train from Memphis to Hardy each weekend and hiked rhe remaining distance ro reach the "kamp," as it was called. Narural stone buildings mark the sire , and Scours were assigned to stone lodges where they spent days playing rield sports, on the tennis courts, at the waterfront on the river, and in countless other acriviries. As well, rhe Chickasah Lodge held its first Order of the Arrow ceremonies at the old camp . Kia Kima remained at this smaller sire until 1964. when Cherokee Village developer John Cooper offered the council a trade for an 860-acre sire on rhe South Fork River outside of his planned development. Kia Kima grew into its new property quickly, and the next year a second camp opened on its own lake across rhe river from the "Main Kamp," the original name for Camp Osage. The newer camp, Camp Cherokee, provided an outpost setting, while Main Kamp troops ate together in the dining hall. Since then , thousands of Scours have visited Kia Kima, and thousands more had camped at rhe original sire. To honor this accomplishment, the 25th anniversaries of rhe new camp and Camp Cherokee were celebrated in 1988 and 1989, and che 75rh anniversary of Kia Kima as a camp was marked in 1991. The staff has played a special pan in this hisrory , and today che burden for preserving camp cradicions lies mainly in che hands of sraff members. Like chose before you, you have chosen to serve a great camp, and rhis opporruniry is one of great pride. The staff has a strong tradition to maintain, and you can play a part in singing proudly cradicional songs like these: The Kia Kima Alma Mater High above rhe South Fork wacers, Reared agair : , r rhe sky, Proudly stands our dear old camp As che years go by. Onward, ever , be our watchwordConquer and prevail Here's to thee, old Kia Kima B.S.A. all hail. Written at Kia Kima, Summer, 1926 It's a Long Way to Kia Kima Ir's a long way to Kia Kima, Ir's a long way to go . Ir's a long way to Kia Kima, Where che husky Boy Scouts go. Good-bye, dear old Memphis; Farewell, old Court Square. Ir's a long, long way to Kia Kima, Bue my heart' s right there.

Notify the Southem Region office and the National Director, Health and Safety Service, by fax. Follow instructions on report form No 19-148, Preliminary Report of Fatal or Serious Accidents or Illness Folder. PROTECTIVE MEASURES Limitations on Activities in High Temperatures and High Humidity In the rare event that weather conditions become too hot for hiking or other intensive outdoor activities, the Reservation Director, in corsultation with camp medical officials, shall issue special limitations on activities. In periods when temperafures hover around or exceed the 100 degree level or ib equivalent when humidity is corsidered, the camp staff may be forced to cancel hikes or outpost trips. The camp staff will work to ensure that campers receive plenty of water and limit their consumption of soft drinks.

The Aquatics Directors may also suspend activities in cases of dangerously high water or storms which threaten unpredictable rises is water level. 8 Kia Kima Scout Reservolion . Chickasow Council, BSA �PROTECTIVE MEASURES Protective Measures in Lightning Storms & Tornadoes In iightning storms and tornado conditions for activities on land, leaders and staff will ensure that Scouts remain clear of hazardous areas such as trees, poies, buildings, and shelters and seek safer and lower quarters such as low gullies not threatened by rising water. Staff and unit leaders will work together to report and remove hazardous limbs or structures which threaten injury in storms or tomado conditions. Child Abuse Child abuse is a crime against youth. Child abuse can involve the mental, physical, and sexual victimization of children. Most camp staff and unit leaders are not ffained to make iudgments about whether a child has been a victim of any kind of child abuse. The Boy Scouts of America has made it a policy that the Scout executive of each council as well as key members of the professional and volunteer staff become familar with child abuse and its various manifestations. It is the responsibility of the Scout executive to identify the reporting requirements in the states in which the council operates and to establish the council's reporting policy accordingly. Any suspected incident of child abuse must be reported immediately to the Reservation Director, or in his absence, to the camp Program Director. It is the responsibility of the camp's leaders, including unit leaders and camp staff member, to report any instance of suspected child abuse. The directors will discuss your suspicions with you and possibly talk to the child. In most states, persons with knowledge of suspected child ibuse are required to report the case to the child protective servic-es agency. Failure to report may carry criminal penalties. All states provide immunity from prosecution for reporting suspected child abuse in good faith. The Reservation Director will be able to expiain these responsibilities to you. The responsibility of the Reservation Director is to refer the matter to the Scout Executive, who has established contacts with appropriate authorities. Detecting Sexual Molestation. Some forms of abuse may not leave obvious physical evidence. There are, however, behavioral signs that may indicate abuse. ffris is especially true of children who have been sexually molested. You should be alert to these signs of sexual abuse: changes in behavior, exkeme mood swings, withdrawal, fearfulness, and excessive crying; bed-wetting, nighfnares, fear of going to bed, or other sleep dishrbances; inappropriate sexual activity or showing an unusuil interest in sexual matters; regression to infanhle behavior; pain, itching, or rawness in the private areas (These problems should be attended to by a physician or nurse.); a fear oi certain places, people, or activities-especially being alone with certain people. Camp ei �''t You should note that some of the behaviors may have other explanations. A child who comes to summer camp or other outdoor activity is coming to an unfamiliar environment and may experience homesickness or anxieties that can lead to behaviors similar to the signs of sexual molestation. Do not simply discount the behavior as homesickness, however. Immediately bring it to the attention of the Reservation Director or medical officer. Even if the child's behavior is a result of homesickness, his outdoor experience can be much more enioyable if the cause of the dishess is addressed. You are in a position to be a real help to youth placed in your care. What to Do. At some point, a youth in your care may tell you that someone has molested him. If this happens, we want you to be prepared to help the child. Follow these guidelines if a child indicates that he or she may have been the victim of abuse or exploitation: don't panic or overreact to the information disclosed by the child; don't cib,cize the child; do respect the child's privacy. Take the child to the camp office, away from other Scouts. It is important that you discuss the problem only with the Reservation Director and medical personnel, who will discuss the situation with the Scout executive and the state child protective services agency. It should not become the topic of conversation in the staff center. Camp is a hard place to keep information confidential. Your Scouts should not become the subiect of camp gossip. Do make sure that the child feels that he is not to blame about what happened. Tell the child that no one should ask him to keep a special secret and that it is OK to talk about what happened with appropriate adults. Try to avoid repeated interviews about this incident. This can be very stressful for the child. Precautions Against Accusations of Sexual Abuse or Exploitation. Child abuse is a serious criminal offense. As a camp leader with the responsibility for caring for children, you may be placed in sensitive sifuations making you vulnerable to charges of child molestation. If you take these simple precautions, however r f ot need not be afraid of groundless accusations. Have other leaders present when supervising showers, changing into swimming suits, and other circumstances in which the child may be dressing or undressing. Respect the privacy of the child; do not become intrusive in such areas as bodily functions more than is necessary to monitor the health and safety of the child. The child has the right to reject displays of affection if he feels uncomfortable about them; not every child comes from a background in which affection is openly displayed. Respect the child's wishes. Protect your own privacy. You should use corunon sense in discussing matters of personal relationships and such subiects, and keep private the details of those areas of your life that are nobody's business but your owrr. Sexual exploitation should not be confused with physical contacts that are true expressions of ffiction. A warm and healthy relationship cnn exist between the camper and leaders if the leaders respect the child and place reasonable limits on their physicnl interaction.
