Revision as of 19:35, 23 February 2017
Hyack Camp is a camp in Queens Park on the same weekend as Hyack Festival. We camp among the trees near the baseball diamond near 1st St. and Vancouver St. During Hyack camp many years ago, the Cubs used to camp in Hume Park and have a bonfire there.
Scout groups from the lower mainland attend. Sometimes groups from elsewhere in BC and Washington State attend.
Our Cubs and Beavers don’t camp in the park, but can attend on Saturday for lunch, go swimming and the return for the campfire.
The event was historically hosted and organized by the Friends of New Westminster Scouting. In 2016, 12th New Westminster took over hosting the event with the Friends assisting. After the Friends were disbanded in 2016, 12th New Westminster ran it with the 50th B.P. Guild assisting.
For the last number of years, Mike Upham has been the camp chief.
We have to get permission to run the rifle range as a Level 3 event. This is done on Friday and depending on the number attendees, it runs until midnight or later.
The 12th New Westminster Venturers assist in running the camp, so are not charged to attend. On Friday, the Camp Chief buys pizza for Venturers.
There are a number of things to do to get this camp organized as follows:

There is an honorarium from the Hyack Parade for our assistance holding signs. This usually amounts to about $350. In the past they fed us.
The 10’x20’ tent from Coho are free (they are stored at the Blue Mountain Scout hall). The swim passes are free. Sanda typically orders about 175 passes. The city provides the sand for the fire, turns on the water, provides tables, and does garbage & recycling, all for free.
