The Tanah Keeta Hymn
Composed in 1963 by M. E. Grueber, The Tanah Keeta Hymn captures the spirit and beauty of our camp. In 1957 Mr. Grueber became the second person in Gulf Stream Council (after Mike Machek) to earn his Wood Badge Beads. In 1961 he was presented with the Silver Beaver Award.
On
a bend
of the river Loxahatchee,
lies a haven rare.
It's a place where our Council comes together,
Fellowship to share.
Refrain:
Tanah Keeta, Tanah Keeta,
On your trails we have found,
Beauty all should see, you must surely be,
God's own camping ground.
In
the Glades, on the trail, and through the thicket,
Woodland life does roam.
Scent of woodsmoke, the sound of boyhood laughter,
This is Scouting's home.
Sun
so bright, and at night the star filled heavens,
Grace the skies above.
Sheltering pines, gently whispering in the breezes,
Bless this land we love.
Refrain
We, the
Scouts, the Explorers, and the leaders,
Sing our praise to thee.
For the fun, and the freindship and the laughter
We derive from thee.
Refrain
Ta-nah Kee-ta
May the adventue always be with us, And may Tanah Keeta remain in our hearts all the while.
The Tanah Keeta Grace
May this food nurish our bodies,
May life give us a smile,
