Website Suggestions/Comments Posted:
May 1, 2007
It's come to my attention that there are a LOT of out of date
pages on the Lodge Website. Please do not hesitate to contact
me if you have ideas/feedback. There are two things you can do
to ensure that this process is efficient and speedy: 1) Please post it in the
Website Suggestions/Comments forum (click link above). 2) Email
me (see address at bottom). Include "OA" in the subject
line, and please give me a link to the page that is out of date/not working.
Since our dates aren't "synched" to a main database (our server
cannot handle it), you may come across some pages that have
incorrect dates, etc., but are correct in other places. If you
come across such pages, PLEASE shoot me an email so we can fix these
confusing pages and have a more function website. Thanks everyone!

Dixie - Directions & Map for Camp Blue Heron Posted:
April 20, 2007
The 2007 Dixie is being held at Camp Blue Heron near Savannah,
Georgia. Following are links to maps for the camp:
Directions to Camp Blue Heron
Camp Blue Heron
Map
A little more information on directions to Camp Blue
Heron passed along from a Scouter in that Lodge.
When
leaving camp today, I realized that some of your drivers may like some clues
on how to find CBH.
When
you leave the paved road and make that left on Scout Road (at the big BSA
Camp arrow), follow the road for 1 mile. Look for an arrow with BSA on
it to turn right on dirt road. Follow the arrows. Be careful of
one area that has a marked ditch on the left side of the road.
Watch
out for wildlife. I stopped for 3 deer on my way out about 7 pm.
We
are marking the signs and ditch with chemlights. There are 2 wooden
bridges to cross-- one is a SSS bridge.
See
you all Friday.
