“How can that little book hold so much information?”
―Donald Duck
“Put that darn guidebook to a good use!”
―Donald
The Junior Woodchuck's Guidebook, or the "Woodchuck book" for short, is a fictional book featured in the Donald Duck comic book stories and both versions of DuckTales. As the title suggests, it is the guidebook used by the Junior Woodchucks and appears to contain information and advice on every possible subject. Huey, Dewey, and Louie frequently consult a volume of the set to get themselves and their uncles Donald Duck and Scrooge McDuck out of dangerous situations (see deus ex machina). It was first mentioned in The Secret of Atlantis by Carl Barks in 1954. Its history was later discussed in Guardians of the Lost Library by Don Rosa in 1993.

According to Don Rosa, the Guidebook was written by the Guardians of the lost Library of Alexandria, compiling the essence of all the knowledge that was unique to the Library. It was later found by Cornelius Coot who gave the book to his son Clinton Coot who, in turn, was inspired to found The Junior Woodchucks as a continuation of the Guardians of the Library. One story that is not by Don Rosa says that the Guidebook is updated by an unknown author.

The Woodchuck book seems almost magical in its breadth of information; it almost never fails to provide the required information and yet is small enough to fit into a Junior Woodchuck's backpack (though many stories reveal that the Guidebook consists of a great number of volumes, the full collection being stored at the Junior Woodchucks' Headquarters. However the Woodchucks have an uncanny knack for always having the right volume with them for the task at hand). In particular, the Guidebook contains information on lost treasure, a complete survival guide, extensive historical and technical information and phrase books for various more or less common languages (like a minimal lizard phrase book), and many more. However, it does not contain information that a Junior Woodchuck is already supposed to know, such as the location of the Cape of Good Hope, nor does it contain information on allegedly non-existent things. (In the DuckTales episode "The Golden Fleecing", the three nephews faced a dragon and when they consulted the Guidebook, the entry on dragons read that since dragons did not exist, there was no reason to include information on them. However, in the story on which that episode was based, the guidebook did have an entry on dragons.) On the other hand, the Guidebook does have information on Martian technology, despite the fact that in the DuckTales universe, Martians had not been discovered when the book was printed. In short, it is a minimal encyclopedia (although the subset of articles is extraordinarily well-chosen), available only to Junior Woodchucks.

Information is readily available by searching the extensive index; a key skill of a Junior Woodchuck is being able to retrieve information quickly from the Woodchuck book in the midst of a dangerous situation, such as a bear attack, an earthquake, falling out of an airplane sans parachute, or being swallowed by a crocodile.

Due to the incredible amount of information the book contains, it is considered highly troubling when a situation occurs and the book does not have the necessary information. In the Don Rosa comic issue The Old Castle's Other Secret or A Letter from Home, Huey, Dewey, and Louie panicked at the necessary information being unavailable.

Just as the Junior Woodchucks are based on the Boy Scouts of America, their Guidebook is inspired by the Boy Scout Handbook. The real Handbook (at least in the 1950s) was the same size as the Guidebook and was believed by all Scouts to contain all necessary information. In this respect, the almost limitless and sometimes esoteric knowledge the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook offers is a gently satirical comment on the "Scout Bible", as the original Scouting For Boys by Baden-Powell was sometimes known, a book giving advice on a vast range of subjects, including "Smoking", "How The Empire Must be Held", "Courtesy To Women" and "How to Revive A Suicide".

That guide was the inspiration for the "Junior Woodchucks Guidebook" (Il Manuale delle Giovani Marmotte), a series of several Disney books with tips, advice, general culture, and curious facts about nature and life, released in Italy by Mondadori in seven volumes between 1969 and 1974, and later translated into several languages.

In the comic book adaptation of the Darkwing Duck pilot, "Darkly Dawns the Duck", it is shown that Darkwing, apparently having been a Junior Woodchuck in his youth, has a copy of the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook. However, in the actual episode, the book is instead referred to as "a boy scout handbook."

The Junior Woodchucks are the Scouting organization to which Huey, Dewey, and Louie belong. They are usually portrayed wearing a uniform with a coonskin cap. The Junior Woodchucks were created by Carl Barks, and made their first appearance in the 1951 comic Operation St. Bernhard (Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #125). Later stories introduced a similar organization for girls, the Littlest Chickadees, to which Daisy Duck's nieces, April, May, and June belong. However, on DuckTales, Webby Vanderquack was occasionally shown to be a member of the Junior Woodchucks as well. A hallmark of the Woodchucks are exalted titles and ranks (Huey, Dewey, and Louie being promoted to become Ten Star Generals in the 1952 story of that name) and the awarding of buckets of badges, along with severe ideals as to decorum. In this way Barks poked gentle but pointed satire at aspects of the Boy Scouts.

The Junior Woodchucks also have Scoutmasters. This role is occasionally taken by Donald Duck, or Launchpad McQuack in DuckTales, where they also have a baseball team with Launchpad as its coach. In most stories the scoutmaster is a tall, strong and wise goose called "Grand Mogul".

Junior Woodchucks always carry with them a copy of the Junior Woodchucks Guidebook, a guidebook filled with detailed and pertinent information about whatever country or situation the Woodchucks find themselves. Its depth of coverage is remarkable, considering that it is a small paperback book.

Disney comic artist and writer Don Rosa created a comic regarding the origin of the Junior Woodchucks Guidebook, Guardians of the Lost Library. Rosa's later story W.H.A.D.A.L.O.T.T.A.J.A.R.G.O.N. tells of how Huey, Dewey, and Louie came to join the Junior Woodchucks.

In 1971, Carl Barks drew a model sheet of the nephews, with some of the drawings showing them in their Junior Woodchuck uniforms, for the Disney studio's publications department.

Most of the early Junior Woodchucks stories appeared in Walt Disney's Comics and Stories. In 1966, they got their own title, Huey, Dewey, and Louie and the Junior Woodchucks, published by Gold Key Comics for 62 issues, and then continued by Whitman Comics for another 20 issues until 1983. The stories which Carl Barks wrote for this comic book, among the last comic book stories he scripted, were drawn by Kay Wright, John Carey, and Tony Strobl. More recently Daan Jippes has been commissioned by Egmont to redraw these stories emulating Barks' style and drawing inspiration from the sketches of Barks' storyboard-like scripts.

Disney Comics published a Junior Woodchucks four-issue mini series in 1991, containing newly-made Junior Woodchucks stories set in the DuckTales continuity, along with reprints of Barks stories.

In the comic book adaptation of the Darkwing Duck pilot, "Darkly Dawns the Duck", it is shown that Darkwing has a copy of the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, revealing that he was a Junior Woodchuck in his youth. However, in the actual episode, the book is instead referred to as "a boy scout handbook".

Comedian Jeff Foxworthy once claimed, in his TV show, to have been a member of the Junior Woodchucks in his childhood.

The Chickadees
The Chickadee Patrols, sometimes also called the Littlest Chickadees, are female counterparts to the Junior Woodchucks. The Chickadees first appeared in "The Chickadee Challenge," a Carl Barks Donald Duck story in Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #161 (1954). The Chickadees' Duckburg patrol is led by a brawny woman named Captain Ramrod. Daisy Duck's nieces April, May, and June are members of the Chickadees. The Chickadees are named after the chickadee, a species of small bird; the phrase "littlest chickadee" also suggests "my little chickadee", a term of endearment classically used by W. C. Fields.

The Chickadee Patrols are based to some extent on the Girl Scouts of the USA and the Campfire Girls. In the spirit of friendly rivalry, the Duckburg troops of the Little Chickadees and Junior Woodchucks once held a bridge-building competition, which ended in a tie.

Carl Barks wrote a poem which mentions the rivalry between the two groups:

The world is full of clans and cults
Abuzz as angry bees
And Junior Woodchucks snapping jeers
At Littlest Chickadees

Trivia
In "Guardians of the Lost Library", it is shown that the first Woodchuck merit badge was awarded to Fulton Gearloose (Gyro Gearloose's father) in 1903, for inventing merit badges.
In the same story as above, it is shown that a merit badge for having the most merit badges was awarded to Dilton Dingus in 1939. In the award ceremony, Dilton is shown with the chest full of merit badges, and just that additional merit badge is enough to cause him to fall to the ground because of their weight.

Säkerhet på campingen
I broschyren Brandsäker camping från Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap finns viktig information kring säkerhet för dig som gäst på O-Ringenstadens camping. Nedan återges broschyrens innehåll anpassat till utformningen av O-Ringenstadens camping 2021. I fem punkter beskrivs det ansvar du har för din egen och andras säkerhet.

1. Respektera det rekommenderade avståndet mellan campingfordon

Husvagnar, husbilar och tält brinner snabbt – ofta är branden över på några minuter. Som campinggäst måste du hjälpa till att minska risken för att brand uppstår eller sprids. Står tält och campingfordon för tätt är risken stor att en brand sprider sig till grannarna. Det är viktigt att rekommenderade avstånd hålls.

Avståndet mellan två campingfordon eller mellan ett campingfordon och ett tält bör vara minst fyra meter. Avståndet mellan två tält bör vara minst tre meter. Med campingfordon menas husvagn eller husbil inklusive eventuellt förtält eller liknande. Det är ditt eget ansvar som campinggäst att se till att avstånden till dina grannar hålls.

I skissen nedan ser du exempel på hur de olika boendeobjekten husvagn, husbil och tält får placeras på O-Ringenstadens camping.


På höger sida av rutan placerar du ditt boendeobjekt. Om du har husvagn placerar du husvagnens dragkrok ut mot vägen så att din vagn snabbt kan flyttas om det börjar brinna hos grannen. Att ha två mindre tält i en campingruta är ok förutsatt att båda tälten placeras på höger sida av rutan och att säkerhetsavstånden hålls till intilliggande boendeobjekt.
Vänster sida av rutan är avsedd för parkering av fordon och/eller yta för umgänge. För att hålla säkerhetsavstånden mellan boendeobjekt på campingen är det viktigt att inga boendeobjekt placeras på vänster sida av campingrutan (dvs. inga människor sover på vänster sida av rutan).
2. Grilla säkert

Grilla aldrig i förtältet eller hustältet. Nyttja de gemensamma grillplatser som kommer att vara markerade på campingkartan. O-Ringen har ett nära samarbete med Räddningstjänsten och följer deras aktuella rekommendationer och restriktioner. Med tanke på tidigare års torka och eldningsförbud så kan det vara en god idé att mentalt förbereda sig på möjligheten att det blir en O-Ringenvecka utan grillning, om vädrets makter skulle bjuda oss på en sådan situation igen.

3. Se över din elutrustning och koppla in den rätt

Du som campinggäst måste se till att din elektriska utrustning är i säkert skick. Exempelvis är det viktigt att all utrustning du ansluter är CE-märkt och att alla kablar är hela. En billig livförsäkring är att låta en elinstallatör göra en översyn av den elektriska installationen i husvagnen. Eftersom installationen är utsatt för kraftiga vibrationer och skakningar under färd är det viktigt att följa upp med egna regelbundna kontroller.

En vanlig orsak till strömavbrott på O-Ringens camping är att eluttagen vänts uppåt så att det regnar rakt in i uttagen. Dessa strömavbrott kan enkelt undvikas om alla husvagnsägare ser till att vända sina uttag nedåt vid installation.

4. Hantera gasolen rätt

Använder du gasol för värme eller matlagning måste du ha god kunskap om hur man gör det på ett säkert sätt. Det är viktigt att ha god ventilation i anslutning till utrustningen. Gasol är ingen giftig gas, men den är mycket brännbar och explosiv. Läckande gasol kan dessutom orsaka kvävning eftersom den tränger undan syre. Kontrollera att alla slangar och kopplingar till gasolanläggningen är hela och ordentligt åtdragna för att hindra läckage.

Gasolflaskor får aldrig ligga ner, då fungerar inte säkerhetsventilen. Placera gasolutrustning med tillräckligt avstånd från brännbart material. Om inga instruktioner finns bör avståndet vara minst 60 cm. Ta för vana att kontrollera tätheten i din gasolanläggning med läckindikator varje gång du byter behållare eller minst en gång om året. Vid behov kan du få hjälp med läckageprovning genom någon husvagnsklubb eller husvagnsförsäljare. Vid kontrollbesiktning finns ofta möjlighet att få gasolanläggningens täthet kontrollerad.

5. Hjälp till om brand uppstår

Om det trots allt uppstår en brand måste du vara beredd att själv ingripa. När räddningstjänsten kommer fram är det ofta för sent. En brandvarnare och en gasolvarnare ger tidig varning. Med en handbrandsläckare och en brandfilt får du goda möjligheter att ingripa i ett tidigt skede, oavsett om det är hos dig eller hos grannen det brinner. På O-Ringenstadens camping kommer brandsläckare finnas utplacerade väl synliga med 100 m mellanrum över hela campingen.

Tack för att vi tillsammans gör O-Ringenstadens camping till ett säkert campingområde!
