decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-6170" src="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/rd_cd22_01-0-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150"

Director. Previously, Elisabeth worked at Lenhok’sin High Adventure for six years in a variety of positions, including Camp Director and Program Director. As a Venture Scout, she was a camper at Camp Bowman for many summers. Elisabeth is a graduate of Dickinson College where she studied Environmental Science. She is very excited to share her love and passion for Goshen with you!</p> <h3>Avery Tarwater, Camp Bowman Director</h3> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-6172" src="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/bow_cd23_01-2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/bow_cd23_01-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/bow_cd23_01-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/bow_cd23_01-2.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" />Avery first came to Goshen in 2009 as a cub, and Bowman as a Scout in 2011. Avery joined staff as a CIT in 2014, and has lived and worked 10 summers at Camp Bowman. They’ve filled positions in almost every area around Camp, including Shooting sports, Bowman Vets, Aquatics, and Scoutcraft before becoming an Area Director in 2017 where they’d go on to run Bowman’s Handicraft, Scoutcraft, and Aquatics areas, as well as founding and Directing Bowman’s Culture Craft area in 2018. Avery’s humbled by the opportunity to represent the best staff in Bowman’s history, eager to welcome scouts and venturers new and old.</p> <h3>Joe Costner, Camp Marriott Director</h3> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-6175" src="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/mar_cd23_01-5-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/mar_cd23_01-5-150x150.jpg 150w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/mar_cd23_01-5-300x300.jpg 300w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/mar_cd23_01-5.jpg 400w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" />Joe first camped at Goshen at Camp Olmsted in 2009 and 2010 before camping at Beautiful Camp Marriott in 2011. He loved Goshen so much he decided to work there, working at Camp PMI for seven years in a variety of roles including Scoutcraft Instructor, Scoutcraft Director, BB Gun Director, Facilities Director, and Program Director. When the opportunity arose to return to Goshen last summer, he jumped at the chance to be the Facilities Director at Beautiful Camp Marriott. Heading into his 9th summer on Goshen staff and first as Camp Director, Joe is looking forward to improving Marriott’s program and making the camp experience as great as possible.</p> <h3>Liam Glass, Camp Olmsted Director</h3> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-6174" src="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/olm_cd23_02-4-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/olm_cd23_02-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/olm_cd23_02-4-300x300.jpg 300w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/olm_cd23_02-4.jpg 400w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" />This summer will be Liam’s Twelfth year on the Goshen staff and his first as the Olmsted Camp Director!

My personal zoo includes a black hamster named Pepper, a Rat terrier dog named Nutmeg, and a Maine coon cat named Ginger. I am picking up three chickens next week!” When asked by her parents, Eirik and Talisha Kellogg what cause was near and dear to her heart that she would like to support with her popcorn sales, Callie’s response was no surprise. After some thought, Callie responded that she would like to support animal welfare. Buckeystown Veterinary Hospital in Frederick, MD boards and takes care of their pets and also partners with three animal rescues.

Callie also donated $1000 to the James E.

in Potomac, Maryland, hosted their annual Pinewood Derby Cut -Out Day on Jan 7. For over 20 years, the troop has been assisting our next generation of Boy Scouts by offering this fun filled Cub Scout event. Cub Scouts, along with an adult, started with a safety briefing, then entered the cutting room where they designed their cars, work with the trained T 706 leaders to cut their cars, sanded and then weighted in for accuracy. The many tools, industrial machinery and complex vacuuming system was all provided by the youth and adults leadership of troop. Together, they helped to cut over 360 cars for the upcoming Pinewood Derby season!</p> <p> </p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-6142"

Venturing program is what many scouts do to have more adventurous activities while still staying true to the scouting principles that draw so many to scouting. This year, Venturing turns 25 years old! To celebrate, the Council Venturing Officers’ Association (CVOA), is hosting a lock-in at Sportrock Climbing Center in Alexandria, VA.</p> <p>This will be an amazing opportunity with opportunities to rock climb, work on requirements for the mountaineering aspect of the Ranger award, hang out with some of the amazing scouts and Venturers in the council, and celebrate a milestone achievement for the Venturing community. This event is open to Venturers and non-Venturers. All that is required is that someone be of Venturing age (14 to 21 years old) and interested in doing some climbing.</p> <p>The lock-in will be February 10-11, from 9 pm to 9 am. Sign-up can be completed using this link (https://forms.gle/9Xx3Bk9MckR85UYU7).</p> <p>I look forward to seeing many of you there.

Craig Poland, the former CEO and Scout Executive, retired on December 31, 2022.</p> <p>Since 2019, Perez served as Deputy Scout Executive/Chief Operating Officer of the NCAC. Previously, he served as the Scout Executive/CEO of the Yucca Council, Boy Scouts of America. Yucca Council serves nearly 5,000 youth and over 2,200 volunteers throughout West Texas and Southern New Mexico. Over a twenty-one year career, Perez has successfully served four BSA Councils and helped to achieve Council objectives in the development and implementation of programs for Scouts of all ranks. His aptitude to work with youth and adults from diverse backgrounds and socio-economic conditions (rural, urban, multi-cultural, corporate, military etc.) has helped in the accomplishment of successful volunteer recruitment, youth membership growth, innovative fund-raising programs and creative youth program delivery.</p> <p>Perez grew up in western Kansas, where his parents and three siblings still reside. He is a graduate of West Texas A&M University in Canyon TX, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. He is a Vigil Honor member in the Order of the Arrow and completed his Wood Badge ticket in 2006.</p> <p>“We are excited to have Mario Perez lead the National Capital Area Council,” said Jim Morgan, NCAC Council President. “As Deputy Scout Executive, he has demonstrated his leadership ability during the last few years through the pandemic and its related challenges. I’m confident his proven skills coupled with his vision for the future will keep our Council at the forefront of the Scouting movement in this region and the entire nation.”</p> <p>“Mario Perez’s hard work and dedication have always been appreciated by our Board,” added Morgan H. Sullivan, NCAC Executive Vice President. “We have been fortunate to depend on his experienced management these last few years. Now, his leadership will take the NCAC forward and benefit even more of the youth in our region by providing the highest-quality Scouting program possible.”</p> <p>“Over the next few years, my strategic goals are to purposefully connect with community partners to increase our service to the community, to establish new Scouting programs throughout our region with conviction, and to lead the implementation of a far-reaching Strategic Plan that will lay the foundation for the next 25 years of Scouting in National Capital Area Council,” said Perez.</p> <p>In 2022, the Council’s theme was “Adventure On.” Last year, our Scouts performed more than 440,000 hours of service to the community, 1,263 Scouts attained the highest rank of Eagle, and 5,372 youth experienced the outdoors at one of our camps.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"># # #</p> <p>About Scouts, BSA and the National Capital Area Council</p> <p>Scouts, BSA provides the nation’s foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training, which helps young people be “Prepared.
