Laurie Bott - Camp Director for Adventure Camp at Beaumont
Laurie is a very active volunteer with her unit, and serves in several council leadership roles!
Who are you and where are you from?
I'm Laurie Bott, and I’m from Perry, Ohio
What is your Scouting history?
I grew up a Scoutmaster's daughter. Became a tiger leader in 2010 for my sons. Moved on to Pack Committee Chair. Joined District Committee in 2016 as District Popcorn Kernel and an Unit Commissioner. After the council merge I became the Cub Scout Division Unit Funding Specialist. Also, was Program Director at Camp Stigwandish Adventure Camp for the last 2 years. My brother and my eldest son are both Eagle Scouts. My daughter will be crossing to a Scouts BSA Girl Troop in February.
Why do you love camp and what are you most looking forward to this summer?
I LOVE Camp! I spent many summers at Camp Stigwandish with my dad and brother. This year will be my 11th year attending Day Camp! In 2009, I became a den walker with my sons. When they crossed to the troop I joined Day Camp staff. I was the "Craft Lady" for two years and then Program Director for two years. Camp is amazing! This year I am totally excited for our new program and the addition of Overnight Camp!
What’s your favorite color?
Oh picking just one is hard. Can I do two? Cerulean and Purple.
This summer’s theme is superheroes. Do you have one you really like?
I would have to say Wonder Woman. I use to watch the episodes on tv with Linda Carter. They were my favorite.
If you could have a super power, what would it be?
I’m torn between Telekinesis and Teleportation. Both would be awesome. However, cloning myself would be cool too. Just think how many more Scouting events I could do!!
You’ll see much more of Laurie and her team by attending Adventure Camp at Home this summer!
