Prehistoric Creatures was the theme for the 4th CTC... and T Rex is looking for you!
A scan of the patches are shown below. The T-Rex patch is ~3.75" tall x 7" wide. All the 8 different subcamp patches have a width plus height of 8 total inches. For example, 4" x 4", or 2" x 6", or 3" x 5", etc. The STAFF patch with a gold metallic border is below.
It is 3" high x 5" wide. Patches with silver metallic border were be available to attendees.
The color in the scans is not perfect, but it will give you some idea of what they will look like. The backround color of all the patches below is white. Check them out! These are great souvenirs! Visit the CTC Patch website by clikcing on the link at the bottom of this page.

The 3rd picture below is the youth leadership team (plus one old guy as advisor!) holding onto the 8 colored flags representing each subcamp. The 9th flag, white, is the starter's flag for each race heat. This picture was taken minutes before the beginning of the subcamp chariot race. The chariot race featured 480 racers in a 90 minute period. Each racer received a chariot race patch for participating. A scan of the Chariot Race patch is shown above.
