Winter Camp Patches
| Origin | Winter Camp XXIV (2000) |
| The Story | Winter Camp XIV in 1990 was the first to have our familiar logo in use. Although patches were suggested almost immediately, it took ten years for them to become a reality. Jeff Rand had the first set printed. There were 100 blue-bordered, 50 gold-bordered mylar, and 25 of each of red, green, black, and white. The gold one became the Psrticipation Award and by tradition only youth can earn the award or touch the patch; there are tongs stored with the patches so adults can present them without touching them. The other borders are presented by Winter Camp University for various areas of study. The red border is for History (presided over by Mark Bollman--> who really likes red), the white is for Winter Camping (presided over by Jeff Rand and now Ethan Rein), and the black border is for Engineering which was originally managed by Paul Kupser and his since transferred to Alan Wilson. The green border had not been assigned until 2020 when it became a leadership award for the youth leader and adviser if each felt the other had done a good job. Orange and purple borders were added in 2021 and neither has an assignment yet, although it seems like one of them will be for cooking. |
