Show 1,500 Utah National Parks Bay Scouts To Go ; Camping; Payson Camp PopularWith the Boys. By RAT SCHWARTZ . , Approximately 1500 boy scouts of the sprawling Utah National Parks council will go camping at council approved v camps ; this summer and of this number 600 or 700 will take advantage of the . opportunities offered -by a the Maple Dell camp in Payson Canyon, Can-yon, according to Floyd Love ridge, assistant to the chief ex- v ecftive of the council. ; s, Although the Maple Dell camp, owned and operated by the boy scout council, could stand a lot of i; improvement, scout leaders are confident that it will -some day stand as a model boy scout camp. At least, they are sure it has. - definite v possibilities of becoming be-coming one . of the outstanding boy scout camps in the nation. Because of high building costs aeid Other construction problems, ' there has been little development as yet, but Loveridge,-as well as other leaders, feels . this is only a temporary situation. ; Our; greatest need at the present time," he pointed out, "is -a place for the boys to swim. We have no swimming facilities at ..the camp area at the present time,, so that whenever the boys feel as if they have to do a little swimming, we transport them to Arrowhead. - "We . do have a lake on camp property, but it is so mossy and muddy that it is unsatisfactory for swimmine. Besides that, cat- might make it rather unsanitary for swimming." Realizing that swimming is an important part of any camping program, the scout leaders are planning to enlarge and clean up ' a. small pond-like body of water near the camp headquarters, headquar-ters, where boating, swimming and other aquatic activities can be tarried on in safety. "Next to a swimming pool, probably our greatest need is horses for riding purposes," Loveridge said. "Aside from these two things, we have practically prac-tically everything else here." Despite the fact the -camping area, which covers 160 acres and is located five miles south of Payson, is in need of many improvements, im-provements, it is in many ways a fine camp as it stands today. It is surrounded by national forest land so that it is impossible impos-sible for private interests to encroach en-croach upon it. The area abounds in plant and animal life of all kinds, which makes it ideal for nature study, hiking and other outdoor activities. Besides that, the area is heavily heav-ily wooded and has many ideally located and situated camp sites. And, even though some of the buildings are in great need of repair, re-pair, it does have many buildings build-ings and cabins which, in time, will be whipped into tip-top shape. "We plan to weather proof more of the caoins for winter camping, "Loveridge pointed -out. "In fact, since this is an ideal winter sports area, we are encouraging en-couraging the development of year-around camping here. And, -the good thing about it all is the fact this area is easily accessible. Among the recent improvements improve-ments at the camp has been the It Happened Here m . . if I Frederick 8.

Besides the headquarters building, storehouse, and seven cottages or cabins, there is a large pavilion which is being used for meeting and program purposes. Water for the camp is supplied by springs from which PayTon draws a large portion of its city water, Loveridge pointed out. The council has a working agreement agree-ment whereby the camp can use all the water from these springs it needs. During the past week, there were 100 scouts in camp from various parts of Utah county taking part in different scouting skills and activities. "Great effort is being placed on teaching the various scouting skills," Loveridge said. Things like pioneering, rope work. bridge building, camping skills and nature study. These are the things most boys need help on because of the technical aspects. "Besides these scouting skills, we have many recreational activities activ-ities like archery, rifle and horseshoe pitching contests and 2i i , Fine Selection of Appliances.

"We are carrying on a provisional provis-ional leadership program at the camp this year and it is proving highly successful. Four troops have already come to camp under un-der this plan. "Through this plan leadership is provided for troops and scouts which do not have their own camp leadership. In past summers, sum-mers, many scouts were denied opportunities to o camping because be-cause their leaders were unable to come to camp with them. This is the third year of operation oper-ation for the camp. The camp area was purchased from a Long Beach, Calif., resident, who used it as headquarters for a hunting lodge and as a summer home. This summer the camp director is Bdyd C. Davis, Orem, chairman chair-man of the council's camping and activities committee. He is being assisted by James G. Anderson, field executive from Price; Sam Gardner, field .executive at Richfield; Rich-field; Glen Tolman, Don Row-berry Row-berry and Eugene Frederickson, all of Provo, and John Cross, Salt Lake City, members of the camp staff.
