featured at mealtime. This is the result of good range management. 



The final night a steak fry is held. Every year a panel discussion is 

 held to involve the campers. This year Chuck Hitch was the panel modera- 

 tor. Subject matter deals with some aspect of range management. Some of 

 the campers are asked to enter into the discussion. As you can keep campers 

 interested in range just so long, recreation is a must on the agenda. 



An Annual Volleyball Game is held between the campers and the staff and 

 to date the staff remains undefeated. 



Multiscan cards were given to each camper to express his or her opinion 

 of various aspects of the camp. A value of six is extremely high when used 

 with either youth or adults. 



An annual feature is a fossil hunt led by Dr. Bob Hiatt. Dr. Hiatt is 

 a local authority in Makoshika State Park. He shares with the campers his 

 wealth of knowledge of flora and fauna as well as archeological artifacts 

 which are easily found throughout the park. Makoshika Park has produced ar- 

 cheological finds which date more than two million years old. Dr. Hiatt 's 

 ability to walk at an average rate of eight miles an hour either straight 

 up or straight down exhausts most of the campers, consequently, the counselors 

 have an easy evening as all campers are ready for bed when they return. 



The campers evaluation shows they learned a great deal. The instructors 

 were excellent, their behavor was a bit shakey and they would recommend the 

 camp to others. 



This year we were happy to have Bob Gartner, with the Old West Regional 

 Range Program from Rapid City, South Dakota, present the awards.

 tests. Top Hand Awards are presented to a junior and senior division winner,
