Cell Tower from Adventure Camp

Page 8: Winter Improvements at Bert Adams and Camp Woodruff

Safety was the Primary Consideration when installing the Cell Tower

• The Goal is to maximize reception throughout our camps  so that Emergency calls could get through regardless of where the activity is occurring.

• Reliable communication is essential to Scout Safety especially in an emergency where response time is critical.

• The Council Health and Safety Committee is a strong proponent of this effort.

Connectivity was a main consideration for locating the Cell Tower

• Leaders have asked for improved connectivity in order to stay in touch with home and business while at camp.

• More and more of today’s leaders must base their decision to attend camp on their ability to remain connected to their work and home.

• Connectivity is an essential support to the leader of today and tomorrow and Atlanta is leading the way.
