Groundbreaking Is Held
For Scout Program Center
The skies were threatening
and the gold of the shovel
came from a spray can. But
the spirit of enthusiasm at the
groundbreaking ceremony
for the new program center
at Camp Rotary was con-
tagious and genuine.
And so it was that on Tues-
day at 6:30 that the new pro-
gram center for the camp,
which was built in 1938, was
officially underway. Girl
Scouts of all age levels,
directed by Dee Land, troop
leader of Junior troop 110,
started the event with a flag
ceremony. They were
Heather Cooper, Senior troop
115; Kathy Summer, Cadette
troop 160; Karen Breeding,
Junior troop 192; Tangela
Caldwell, Brownie troop 20;
and Kelly Stalvey, Daisy
troop 421. Sally Causey,
Senior troop 140 led the Girl
Scout Promise. :
Connie Gibbons, Pioneer
Girl Scout Council President,
complimented Pioneer Girl
Scouts for the ongoing com-
mitment to Girl Scouting and
the programs carried out at
Camp Rotary, the 32 Acre
Camp located at the foot of
Crowders Mountain. She
gave a progress report of the
fund development drive for
the program center that was
begun on February 1. Foun-
dations have contributed
$55,000 and individual con-
tributions from the four coun-
ties served by the Pioneer
Council have brought the
total to $71,000.
Barbara Tarlton, Chair-
man of the Camp Rotary Im-
plementation Task Force,
asked Connie to dig the first
shovelful of dirt, and past
council presidents were quick
to dig in. Woods Carriel,
former Council Executive
Director, had a turn at the
shovel as did the current
Director, Sylvia Holmes.
Suzanne Simmons, who was
instrumental in the develop-
ment of the handicapped ac-
cessible nature trail at Camp
Rotary,
she was no stranger to a
shovel. And so it was the most
of those present took part in
the symbolic al
ing.
The fund drive for the pro-
gram center has a long way
to go to meet the $400,000
goal. Girl Scouts past and
present are being to asked to
contribute as well as in-
dividuals are groups who use
this facility. Contributions,
which are tax deductible,
should be sent to Camp
Rotary Redevelopment
Fund, c/o Pioneer Girl Scout
Council, 324 North Highland
Street, Gastonia, N.C. 28052.

Accommodations Directory
is now available from the
Division of Travel and
Tourism.
The comprehensive guide
lists over 1,000 types of lodg-
ing facilities from contem-
porary chain hotels to tradi-
tional country inns. It is part
of the Division’s travel
package, which is available
free of charge to the public.
The directory includes a
section on bed and breakfasts
and country inns and one on
standard hotels and motels.
The latter includes real
estate offices with rental pro-
rty.
All of the lodging facilities
are listed alphabetically by
city or town. The property
name, address and telephone
number are noted, in addition
to the number of units,
operating seasons, amenitie.
offered and type of payment
accepted. Individual proper-
ties must be contacted for [
rates and reservations.
Particularly interesting is
the section on country inns
and bed and breakfasts,
which are growing in \
popularity for travelers.
These places are ideal for one
to enjoy a slower pace,
possibly a rural setting, a
home-cooked meal or just the
quaintness of staying in a
private residence or inn
reminiscent of earlier times.
The section on the state’s
many outstanding hotels and
motels is not only an ex-
cellent source for where to
stay for a “holiday”, but is
also helpful in selecting a
meeting site. In this regard,
the Division also provides a
Meeting and Convention
Guide, which has information
about hotels, motels, meeting
facilities and convention
centers throughout the state.

Directory and other travel
