Jim Sawgrass is a native Floridian and a member of the Muskogee Creek Indian Tribe. He served on the Florida Indian Council
from 1991 to 1995. Sawgrass has been sharing his knowledge
of the Southeastern Native American tribes for over 25 years.
As a child, he was always interested in history, building forts, and exploring the woods and swamps. The outdoors was always, and continues to be a big part of his life.
He became more involved with his Native American heritage by
attending powwows, Native festivals, and historical reenactments.
He learned more about Native culture and history from the many
elders, outdoors-men, and reenactors he was surrounded by. He
became an Eagle Scout and applies his scouting skills to this day.
www.jimsawgrass.com
www.camplanoche.com
In 1988, Sawgrass began presenting programs professionally on Native
American history and started the “Deep Forest Historical Native American Programs”. Since then, he has performed at places like schools,
Powwows, state and national parks, Disney, EPCOT, Sea World, New
Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festivals and many other places around the U.S.

Native American Village Programs
Come experience the only Native American Village in the Southeast at Camp La-No-Che. Immerse yourself in the Native American culture by walking through a recreated Native American Village complete with Native Trading Post, Dance Arbor, Tepees, Shooting Stations, Native Cooking Area, Native American Museum, Chickee Teaching Shelters, and much, more. The Native
American village staff will take you on a journey back in time throughout your stay at Camp La-No-Che.
Participate in merit badge programs by taking American Cultures and American Heritage and learn about the
variety of cultures that exist in America today how they interact with one another. Archaeology and Indian
Lore are for those Scouts that want a taste of a time long ago. Scouts taking these merit badges will have the
chance to dive into the history of ancient peoples, and also dig up some of the relics they have left behind. In
Wilderness Survival Scouts will learn about survival techniques that they can use in the real life, and have the
chance to put what they have learned to use by spending a night under the stars in shelters they have created.
Are these programs not advanced enough for you? Well check out our Tracking, Woodsman I, and
Woodsman II Programs for older Scouts. In tracking learn how to find animals out in the wilderness at
La-No-Che, and the clues that they leave behind. Woodsman I is an outdoor survival skill program for
Scouts. Learn Native American survival skills and practices, primitive weapons history, fire making,
history of Seminoles, hide tanning, and flint napping. Woodsman II is an advanced outdoor survival
skills program for scouts who have completed Woodsman I. This is an extension course that adds new
elements such as Native American cooking,
advanced Indian skills and more.
The Native American Village has many programs going on throughout the week a well. Many
of these programs take place during troop time activities, and give you a taste of the merit badges, and advanced programs. These activities include having a troop bean shooter war, participating in jam session night, viewing the la-cross demonstration, taking part in model building, walking
through the museum, taking a pottery class, listening during story telling night, shooting and throwing Native weapons or coming to the Native American Pow-Wow on Thursday for family night.

The Leonard and Marjorie Williams Family Scout Reservation
Camp La-No-Che- Summer Camp 2015
The Leonard and Marjorie Williams Family Scout Reservation has earned a reputation over the past sixty four
years as the premier Scout camp in Florida and the Southeast. On the shores of beautiful Lake Norris, nestled on
the south edge of the Ocala National Forest, Camp La-No-Che has exciting program features, outstanding facilities, and the best trained staff in the south east. A week at Camp La-No-Che is the perfect opportunity for a Scout
to enjoy camping, learn self-reliance, and acquire valuable Scouting skills. Camp La-No-Che is an increasingly
popular choice among troops from other councils and even other countries. For some scouts a week is not enough,
more scouts every year choose to return for a second, or even third week as a provisional scout each summer.
Policy Statement
The programs and facilities of the Central Florida Council,
BSA, are available to everyone who meets Scouting
membership requirements and qualifications. No person
shall, on the grounds of race, color, or national origin,
be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits
of, or be subject to discrimination in the use of the same.

program areas include Adventure Camp, Adventure Expedition, Aquatics, Ecology, Handicraft, Healthcraft,
Leadership Academy, Native American, Scoutcraft, Shooting Sports, STEM Academy, and Trailblazer.
Provisional Scout Program (Section VI)
Camp La-No-Che has more to offer than what can be accomplished during just one week. If
you want to attend camp for an additional week there is a $25 discount to attend Provo. Adult
leadership is provided for Scouts all week. Provisional campers have the same opportunity to
enjoy the program as other Scouts, and even have the opportunity for some special activities.
Merit Badge Program (Section II)
Merit Badge Programs are for all Scouts who are working toward rank advancement or specific skills
and interests. All Scouts need merit badge books for each merit badge class. All merit badge skills are
offered in daily sessions. However, extra time will be needed to complete some merit badges. Other
merit badges do not take a full week and two merit badges may be offered during the same session.
New Scout Programs (Section II)
New Scout Programs are for Scouts with less than six months in Scouting. We encourage these Scouts to
attend one of our Trailblazer sessions. Scouts will learn basic skills and complete rank advancement. During
the other three merit badge periods it is suggested they work on First Aid, Swimming, and Cooking. New
Scouts not participating in Trailblazers may also take numerous Aquatic merit badges if they have Swimming.
Advanced Programs Scouts (Section III)
Older Scout Programs located in areas like Adventure Camp, Adventure Expedition, and Native
American Village for Scouts who wish to test their limits. While in Adventure Camp older
Scouts can climb the Alpine Tower, or drive A.T.V.’s. In the Adventure Expedition Program,
they can also journey off camp and go of Poseidon's Odyssey or visit an attraction. In the Native
American Village Scouts can learn how to survive in the wilderness and primitively cook.
Adult Leader Programs (Section IV)
All week long Camp La-No-Che provides many different programs for leaders. Whether you want to sign up
for training courses or just for fun courses, Camp La-No-Che has the program for you. Sign up for a week
long program like the Adult Leader Training Program and Woodsman II or go to an hour training course
like Trek on Safely and Climb on Safely, and of course do not forget about the SM/SPL Competitions!

until 5:20pm, and once in the evenings every day. You will register your troop on Sunday at 7:30 pm in

Adventure Expeditions
Camp La-No-Che has adventure expeditions for units to enjoy camp and some exciting adventures. You can
pick one of our summer camp high-adventure expeditions, or meet with the Assistant Camp Director of Program to custom plan an adventure, or participate in our normal summer camp adventures, such as Attraction
Adventures, canoeing, caving, climbing, leadership, sports, trail biking, and many more adventures. Your
unit will have an opportunity to meet new friends, enjoy the outdoors, and experience some new adventures.
For the Adventure Expeditions, one or two Scouts from a unit may come as Provisional Scouts. If a unit
sends three or more Scouts to a program, the unit must provide an adult leader. Also, a unit may schedule one of these programs just for their unit if they meet the minimum requirements. All the programs
are subject to changes due to circumstances beyond our control. If a change should be necessary,
we will notify you as soon as possible. Also, each Adventure Expedition has a minimum of 6 Scouts
and a maximum of 14 Scouts. If a program does not meet the minimum number required, a Scout
may transfer to another program. Call today to enroll your unit and start planning your adventure.
Poseidon's Odyssey
Camp La-No-Che is pleased to provide an odyssey like no other. Experience a week in the life of Poseidon as you go tubing, canoeing, deep sea fishing, windsurfing, and water-skiing in Central Florida. Below is a detailed schedule of the weeks activities, and suggested items to bring with you.

Trailblazer Program
The Trailblazer program will be held daily in 2 two-hour sessions (9:00 am until 10:50 am or 1:30 pm
until 3:20 pm). Scouts who participate will become versed in the Boy Scout ideals and patrol methods.
Scouts with less than six months as Boy Scouts are encouraged to participate in the Trailblazer program. Three hours are left open for the youth to participate in merit badge sessions that interest them.
This program will introduce them to basic skills required for advancement to First Class. All areas covered
will be signed off on a special Trailblazer form. It is the responsibility of the Scout­master to test the Scout
when he returns home and then sign him off when he has proven that he knows the skill. Scouts who have
been in the Scouting program for six months or more and need only certain items for advance­ment (i.e.
knots, compass work, basic first aid skills, etc.) may find that their needs can be accomplished during troop
activity time with the appropriate program area (e.g., Aquatics). Feel free to set up required instruction
with area directors at the beginning of the week. Scout leaders are needed who have some free time and
can volunteer helping to enhance program instruction. Please sign up Sunday at the SM/SPL meeting.

Hiker of La-No-Che
Hiking the trails of Camp La-No-Che at The Leonard and Marjorie Williams Family Scout Reservation
can be a rewarding experience for Scouts and Scouter’s alike. The Ecology department maintains and
oversees the trail system throughout camp. Before starting any hike, please notify the staff at the Ecology
Lodge for directions, hints on changes and wildlife, and to sign the log book. Report back to Ecology
Lodge upon completion of each hike. To become a Hiker of La-No-Che and earn a special patch, one must
hike three trails, one of which must be hiked at night. The patch may be purchased at the trading post.
Big Stump Trail
This trail is a tradition at La-No-Che. Expect a muddy two hour walk through the Blackwater Swamp
to view an old first growth cypress stump and many natural areas of interest. To take this hike, report
to the Ecology Lodge with two leaders and ample time to complete the hike before dark. Weekly
changes in times may be invoked as water levels, staff schedules and weather require. Wear old
clothes and closed-toe shoes, preferably all items to throw away after the hike. Nobody comes back
in clean clothes and the mud usually won’t wash out completely. Those who make it to Big Stump
and back fulfill the requirements for a special patch available for purchase from the trading post.
Cateye Trails
The Cateye Red Trail is marked with red reflectors and the Cateye Blue Trail with blue reflectors
which the Scouts follow. The route uses existing roads and trails through the east side of
camp to provide a challenge for everyone. Remember to bring your flashlights, look up and
keep a sharp eye out for the red cateyes. These trails were blazed by the Ecology Staff and is
about an hour long. Remember your flashlights and keep an eye out for the red/blue cateyes.
Sulfur Springs Trail
This spring is one of the natural wonders of La-No-Che which is being preserved and protected. Because of
this protection, you can experience this wonderful ecosystem which unfolds before you. Please do not damage
plants and trees along the way, but take lots of pictures. Also, remember that the spring is not a swimming hole.
Trapper Creek Nature Trail
This is an adventure in wetland forests and creeks that sometimes flow under two bridges.
The wood ticks and mosquitoes may be a problem, so bring your repellent and spray
your ankles. Hikers may see close to half of Camp La-No-Che’s plant species on this trail
along with many different types of animals. This trail will focus on identification, making
it an ideal resource for Nature and Forestry Merit Badges and Trailblazer requirements.

Section V- Provisional Program
Provisional Troop Camping
Camp La-No-Che provides a Provisional Troop with a Scoutmaster and volunteer assistants for all eight
weeks of camp. The Scoutmaster will be hired by the Central Florida Council and will not hold any other camp

troop, who wish to attend more than one week of camp, or who are attending specialty camp without a troop.
Specialty weeks and the Provisional Troop are not intended to be alternatives to troop camping.
Any troop sending four or more boys to the provisional troop or a specialty week will be expected
to provide an adult to assist with leadership. Questions concerning this issue may be directed
to the camp office. An application is provided in the forms section located on page 87-88.

2015 Provo Merit Badge Registration Form
This form should be used for Prove merit badge registration
We are limiting the size of merit badge courses in order to provide proper instruction. Camp is now accepting
pre-registration for merit badges and special skills courses. Courses will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis.
This will help ensure that the Scouts (and leaders) know the Scouts’ schedules, and will also give the summer camp
staff an idea of what the demands are for various merit badge courses. Please indicate the merit badge course by
name under the appropriate time. Keep in mind that some courses last for more than one hour. Please mail this form
to the camp office as early as possible prior to arrival at camp, starting March 1, 2015, because class size is limited.

Section VI- Adult Information
Adult Leadership in Camp
Each troop must have one registered Scouter who is 21 years of age or older and one registered
Scouter who is at least 18 years of age as their camp leaders. Although not recommended, the
camp leaders may rotate during the week. In this case, the new leader must check in at the Camp
Office and the departing leader must remain until his relief arrives. We only have campsite
building quarters for two leaders from your, other leaders should expect platform tent quarters.
Scout Leadership in Camp
The troop’s Senior Patrol Leader should give leadership to the patrols. This is an excellent
opportunity to develop leadership, as the camp program will rely on the Senior Patrol Leader and
Patrol Leaders for several camp-wide activities. Camp information is distributed at the daily SPL
Meetings at 12:30pm at the Trailblazer Pavilion, and the SPL can ask questions about Commissioner’s
Award points, camp improvements, equipment, and discuss problems his troop is experiencing.
Camperships
The Central Florida Council has limited camperships available for Central Florida Council Scouts who
need assistance earning their fee to attend Camp La-No-Che summer camp. Application for this assistance
may be made by using the form in Section IX. Funds are provided by private donors in the community and are
limited to those who are truly in need. We encourage you to make application before May 1st. It is our desire
that no Scout be denied the opportunity to attend camp due to financial circumstances. If a Scout is provided a
campership and does not attend, the campership will not be refunded, but will be returned to the campership fund.
Out of Council Troops
In accordance with BSA national policy, troops from other councils must have a letter from
their home council and a tour permit granting them permission to attend Camp La-No-Che.
This letter should be turned in with the troop physicals while completing the check-in process.
Summer Camp Fees
All fees may be paid with cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express.
Scout Fee
Refer to Section I for Scout fees.
Leader Fee
Two adults leaders per troop may attend summer camp free. Troops which bring more than twenty
Scouts are allowed an additional leader free for every ten additional Scouts at camp. For example,
a troop which brings thirty Scouts to camp may bring three free leaders. Additional leaders will
be charged $115 each. All fees are due as described in the Fee Payment Schedule Section. The
camp fee covers meals, some program materials, camp staff, utilities, and a summer camp patch.
Camp Volunteer Leader Program
Additional leaders may attend camp at no cost by volunteering to assist in program areas for a total
of fifteen hours. The schedules for helping will be arranged through the program area directors. Jobs
include lifeguarding or spotting at the pool or lake, teaching Trailblazer skills, teaching “STEM” merit
badges, and assisting merit badge counselors. A special registration form may be found in Section IX.

2015 Merit Badge Registration Form
This form should be used only if not using on-line merit badge registration
We are limiting the size of merit badge courses in order to provide proper instruction. Camp is now accepting
pre-registration for merit badges and special skills courses. Courses will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis.
This will help ensure that the Scouts (and leaders) know the Scouts’ schedules, and will also give the summer camp
staff an idea of what the demands are for various merit badge courses. Please indicate the merit badge course by
name under the appropriate time. Keep in mind that some courses last for more than one hour. Please mail this form
to the camp office as early as possible prior to arrival at camp, starting March 1, 2015, because class size is limited.

Unit Swim Classification Record
Swim tests outside of summer camp may be administered by any adult leader who holds a current training
card in BSA Aquatics Supervision or BSA Lifeguard.
This is the individual’s swim classification as of the test date. Any change in swim status after this date
would require a reclassification test by the Aquatics Director. Swim tests should be given every year.
Please refer to the Guide to Safe Scouting or Aquatics Supervision Manual for test administration.
When swim tests are conducted away from camp, the Aquatics Director shall reserve the authority to
review or retest.

Swim Classification Procedures
The swim classification of individuals participating in a Boy Scouts of America activity is a key element in
both Safe Swim Defense and Safety Afloat. The swim classification tests should be renewed annually, preferably at the beginning of each outdoor season. Traditionally, the swim classification test has only been conducted at a long term summer camp, However, there is no restriction that this be the only place the test can
be conducted. It may be more useful to conduct the swim classification prior to a unit going to summer camp.
All persons participating in BSA aquatics are classified according to swimming ability. The classification tests and
test procedures have been developed and structured to demonstrate a skill level consistent with the circumstances
in which the individual will be in the water (e.g., the Swimmer’s Test demonstrates the minimum level of swimming ability for recreational and instructional activity in a confined body of water with a maximum 12-foot depth.)
ADMINISTRATION OF SWIM CLASSIFICATION TEST
(THE LOCAL COUNCIL CHOOSES ONE OF THESE OPTIONS):
OPTION A (at camp):
The swim classification test is completed the first day by Camp Aquatics personnel.
OPTION B (Council conducted/council controlled):
The council controls the swim classification process by predetermined dates, locations and approved personnel to serve as test administrators. When the unit goes to summer camp, each individual will be issued a buddy tag under the direction of the Camp Aquatics Director for use at the camp.
OPTION C (At unit level with council-approved aquatics resource people):
The swim classification test done at a unit level should be conducted by one of the following council-approved
resource people: Aquatics Instructor, BSA; Aquatics Cub Supervisor; BSA Lifeguard; BSA Swimming &
Water Rescue; or other lifeguard, swimming instructor, etc When the unit goes to summer camp, each individual will be issued a buddy tag under the direction of the Camp Aquatics Director for use at the camp.
TO THE TEST ADMINISTRATOR
The various components of each test evaluate the several skills essential to the minimum level of swimming ability. Each step of the test is important and should be followed as listed below:
SWIMMER’S TEST:
Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, and begin swimming. Swim 75 yards
in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: side stroke, breast stroke, trudge,
or crawl; then swim 25 yards using an easy resting back stroke. The 100 yards must be swum
continuously and include at least one sharp turn. After completing the swim, rest by floating.
BEGINNER’S TEST:
Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, swim 25 feet on the surface, stop, turn sharply, resume swimming as before, and return to starting place.
