See how your patrol stacks up against the other patrols in the District in solving the mystery. The opening ceremony will begin with a crime scene skit which will set the stage for solving a crime scene mystery. The CSI Camporee will be organized into a number of activities where Scouts will learn how to gather and analyze evidence which they then can use to solve the mystery.
We are looking to bring in local Police, an actual mobile crime lab, Police dogs, and more for demonstrations and to assist Scouts in solving the crime.

Highlights:
Update — The CSI narrative is being rewritten. Troop 19 and Troop 190 is finalizing a teen-rated Kidnapping for the crime mystery. This will have a double twist! Patrols will need to identify the kidnapper or kidnappers and rescue the victim. Stations will be tweaked a little, and we will have updates at the Oct. 2 Roundtable.
- Station 1—Searching the Crime Scene and Evidence Collection: Learn how to gather and preserve evidence from a crime scene. How would you locate, and catalog evidence found over a wide area? Each patrol will need a digital camera to take photos.
- Station 2—Detective Work: Learn some of the tools of a detective including timelines, reconstruction, organizing evidence, and chain of custody.
- Station 3 — Eyewitness Evidence: Try your hand at interviewing witnesses and suspects. How good are eyewitness observations? Do eyewitnesses make many mistakes?
- Station 4 — Fingerprints: Learn how to find and preserve fingerprints from a crime scene.
- Station 5 — DNA Lab: This lab helps them determine whose blood was left at the crime scene.

- Station 12 — The Wrecking Ball Inflatable: Designed for teens and just for fun! Four players climb atop their inflated pads. One of the players grabs the “Wrecking Ball” and hurls it at their opponent in an attempt to knock the player off of their inflated pad.
