All-States encampment Farm Bureau Bead of

The following in an article written by Joyce Hammond describing her All-States encampment experience. Excited greetings, piles of assorted baggage, “on the spot” guitar sessions, comparison of dialects, and the satisfied feeling of having arrived at last— this was the atmosphere at Appletree Camp Site in Nantahala National Forest, North Carolina. On August 13, 103 Senior Scouts from 41 states and 15 Guides from foreign countries embarked on the wonderful experience of All-States. What is All-States? Ask a girl from Denmark, one from Maine, another from Oregon, and one from Jamaica. Each will give you a different answer, but underneath every answer lies the foundation of what AllStates essentially is. All-States is a three week encampment where experienced Senior Scouts and Guides are given the opportunity to be responsible for their own leadership, to utilize their previous learnings in realistic stiuations, and to develop programs from each other as well as the environment. At All-States girls have the opportunity to share hints with each other on inexpensive camping equipment and techniques in advanced camping. The three weeks of All-States are divided into three important phases. The first week was devoted to reviewing camping skills and receiving extensive training in preparation for our backpacking experience. The second week we backpacked into the forest as patrols without adult supervision. This third and final week we are evaluating our experiences on the trail and preparing for our backhome commitment which will consist of teaching other scouts backpacking skills, camping techniques and how to use the patrol system. As a camper at this year’s All-States I feel especially privileged to take part in the many wonderful experiences it offers. This year completes a three year period of All-States being held at Nantahala Forest Although there have been many All-States before and there will continue to be many in the future I am sure that all of the girls here feel this All-States la a very special one. In my troop there are four patrolsthree of Senior Scouts and Guides and one adult patrol. The adult patrol is here for the purpose of learning how to carry out similar encampments in their own localities. The eight girls in my patrol are as varied in personalities as they

are in the areaa where they come from. All of us found that we shared a common love for the out-of-doors as well as for backpacking and camping. From this foundation we have built on each other’s experiences. The first week we had sessions on compass and map, backpacking tips, knows, and other campcraft skills. One of the highlights of the first week was a “wide” game. Every patrol was given an hour’s notice to pack supplies for an overnight and to go to a specified area to alert the Cherokees to evacuate because of flood. Of course the “Cherokees” were members of the staff and the emergency wasn’t real, but it gave everyone invaluable experience in organization and camping out of our packs. On Monday, August 21, all patrols hit the trail with their packs for a week of backpacking completely on their own. Each pack, affectionately known as a “boulder-holder-over-the-shoulder” had to weigh 28 pounds or less. Although it rained almost continuously and fires were hard to start, spirits were high as we covered a distance of approximately 25 miles over rough mountain terrain. On Saturday, patrols picked up their feet, chose a lively hiking song, and marched into base camp. Needless to say, there was a run on showers and mailboxes. Now that we have recouperated a little from our trail experience we are busy evaluating the trip and making plans for sharing our experiences with others. Before the week is over, we will go into Cherokee in the Smolies for an afternoon of sightseeing. In the evening we will attend the Indian pageant, “Unto These Hills,” the story of the Cherokee nation. On Thursday tents will come down, duffles will be repacked, and tears will be shed. What is All-States? Maybe the best response is just a very meaningful, satisfied sigh.

“The results are about halfway between watercolors and oils in appearance,” she said. “But the markers have more limitations than oils ... you can go over oils.” Miss Senter has used the markers to turn out some 60 still lifes, landscapes and abstracts, done in bold colors which are her particular style. She’s also had her first formal exhibition, at the Panoras Gallery in New York, and Art News, the “Bible” of the art world, remarked that she “wields the marker to create vibrant floral compositions, some with collage.” “The critics didn’t give me a lot of space,” said Miss Senter, “but they did use the word ‘create.’ I was happy about that. As far as I know, I’m the only artist who’s had an exhibit of paintings done with markers.” Her new technique began in the summer of 1966 when she and a girl friend took a sightseeing bus trip to the West Coast and on up to British Columbia. ‘Td told one of my teachers, Tony Smith, that I wanted to be a serious artist,” she recalled. “He said, ‘then you’ll have to paint steadily. An artist has to be an artist full time.’ T couldn’t see myself creating oils and an easel across country that summer,” she added, “so I hit on the markers. I don’t know whether an amateur
