	1928	Summer Camp for Central South Carolina Council held at Rocky Bottom.  This is considered part of a local summer camp collection, but actually pre-dates Camp Barstow which was not opened until 1930.  This is the earliest known summer camp patch for Central S.C. Council.
	1930	This is the first Camp Barstow patch.
	1931
	1932
	1933
	1934
	1935
	1936
	1940
	1941	Called "Camp Barstow," this summer camp season was actually held at Camp Burnt Gin in Wedgefield, SC.  The original Camp Barstow on Ft. Jackson had been sold to the government for expansion of the military base.  The new site in Gaston would not open until 1942.
	1942 - 43	This was the first Camp Barstow patch for the Gaston location of Camp Barstow.  The patch was created with "194" printed across the top and a "2" or "3" was typed on the patch to indicate 1942 or 1943.  This is the only difference between the issues.
	1944 - 45
	1945 - 46
	1947 - 48, 1958
	1949 - 1950
	1951 - 1957, 1961 - 1962	Cut edge F-dock.  See CB-T-61 below.
	1959
	1960
	Several years during 60s	This is the first known Camp Barstow patch designating Camp Staff.  Exact years used are unknown.  It was used several years in the 60's, and perhaps earlier and/or later.
	1961, 68, 69	There is conflicting information about this issue and the "cut-edge F-dock."  Accounts from former campers and staffers indicate both of these were used in 1961, although this seems unlikely.  Moreover, it seems off that this design would be used in 61 and then again in 68-69, yet  there are no distinguishable variations as there are with the "rolled edge F-docks" which were used off and on for several years.
