The Tomahawk tribe has re-named itself the Lenape tribe. We decided
that in order to be more authentic, we would name ourselves after a group
of Indians, rather than an inanimate object. For those of you who
may not know, the Lenape were a peaceful tribe residing in the Schuylkill
Valley and spreading west as far as Carlisle or so. The Europeans
called them the Delaware.
We reserve the right to use the Tomahawk chant, chop, and associated
movements at Nation events such as Pow-Wows and Comanche roasts.
However, Lenape has the same number of syllables as Tomahawk, so you'll
have to stay tuned to see what we'll actually do.
If anyone is interested in earning a Little Brave award for a visit to
another tribe and associated scouting report, you of course are welcome to
our events at any time. However, our next tribal event might be a
particularly interesting time to attend. We will be meeting at
Climbnasium on February 17th for indoor climbing and hope to have some
scouting reports on our tribe's new name. Send me an email if any of
your tribes' Braves would like to attend and I can give them details.
Running Gecko, for the (mighty) Lenape tribe
Spring campout is scheduled for May 18-19 at Camp Nawakwa. Cost will be approx. $30.00 per person. Please pass the word to your tribes so that allcan mark their calendars. We are also scheduled to participate in the Camp Hill Memorial Day Parade. More details will follow on both events. HEEP HOW!
