'''eCamp''' is a digital camp planning tool for everyone. With this tool you can plan all the activities of a camp and create a detailed plan that you can then take with you electronically on your telephone or print out.<br />
<br />
eCamp is a web-based app for [[camps]] and [[course planning]]. The application is specialized for camps and courses of youth associations and for Youth+Sports offers in the field of "camp sports/trekking". However, it is open to all interested parties, regardless of whether they are youth associations, school camps or other sports.<br />
<br />
A core group of six Swiss scouts has reprogrammed version 3 from scratch and added many new functions. With eCamp, all co-leaders can access the camp. This makes it easier to adhere to deadlines or general conditions, for example. With eCamp, everything for program planning can be collected compactly in one place, including material lists, a red thread for the motto, safety considerations and responsibilities. <br />
<br />
eCamp is open source. You can therefore also install it on your own computer. The costs are covered by the [[Swiss Scout Federation]]. The program is currently available in the four national languages German, French, Italian and Romansh, as well as in English.<br />

<div>Leveque Scout Reservation, alternativly known as Greenhorn Scout Reservation and the Central Ohio Council Scout Reservation, was located near Logan, Ohio. It was owned and operated by the Central Ohio Council. Leveque was split into two camps, Camp Buckeye and Camp Longhorn. both camps hosted summer camp programs until 1987, when Central Ohio Council merged with Licking County Council, and programs moved to Licking County's facility, [[Camp Falling Rock]]. The camp remained in service for year round programming and troop camping until 1999 when the camp was closed and sold.</div>Greg Shipleyhttps://en.scoutwiki.org/Camp_Falling_RockCamp Falling Rock2024-01-26T14:49:42Z<p>Greg Shipley: /* History */ Early history</p>
<hr />
<div>Camp Falling Rock is located at 40.175377720482714, -82.30924525922379, aproximatly 11 miles north of Newark Ohio. It is owned and Operated by Simon Kenton Council, headquartered in Columbus, Ohio.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== The Church Group ===<br />
<br />
The earliest documented use of the property is from the 1880's, when the camp was used as a church retreat by a group from Mt. Vernon. Church retreat camps were common in this area of Licking County, the terrain is challenging for agriculture, and the rock formations and cliff faces provided an excellent backdrop for such activities. An inscription from this time on a rock wall reads: "Camp Whip-Poor-Will Mount Vernon, Ohio 1888" The church camp administration building, believed to have been built in 1883, stood on camp until 2013.<br />
<br />
===The Early Years===<br />
<br />
Licking County Council purchased 34 acres of land in 1926. In 1927 the property was established as Camp Falling Rock. The name of the camp was chosen for a rock formation along the main road approaching the camp. When driving along the road it would appear that the overhanging rocks were about to fall into the road.<br />
<br />
During the first year the property was used for unit camping and activities, meanwhile fundraising was carried out to build the five small barracks buildings and a dining hall. Construction was completed on these buildings in 1927. One of the barracks buildings survives and serves at the boat house.<br />
<br />
Summer camp opened at Camp Falling Rock for the first time in 1928. During these first few years camp was accessed on a scout built monkey bridge spanning the Rocky Fork Creek. Later a foot bridge was built, and a permanent bridge was installed by the county in 1931. <br />
<br />
The cost for the first season of camp was $10 per two week session, two sessions were offered that first summer.<br />
