The Craig Goodwin Campership
Craig Goodwin
Craig Goodwin was a member of Boy Scout Troop 160 of Lewiston, Maine from 1981 until his death in 1984. Craig was a scout who came from a single parent home of modest means. Although he and his mother did not have much money, they were always willing and able to work hard to insure that Craig did not miss out on any scouting activities. It is only fitting that the Craig Goodwin Campership be awarded to a scout who has limited financial means, but shows willingness to work hard to pay his or her own way within their scout group.

It is only fitting that the Adam Beggs Campership be awarded to a scout who exemplifies the same spirit of friendliness, as recommended by the leader of his or her scout group.

It is only fitting that the Joe Beggs Campership be awarded to a scout who is recommended by the leader of his / her scout group for being a true outdoorsman. In addition to participating in outdoor sports and camping, the candidate should have a background in nature-ecology and must be conservation minded.
