NOTES ABOUT CAMP
· ALL Scouts MUST turn in a COPY of their MEDICAL forms NO LATER than at DROP OFF on Sunday, June 4.
· Newbies must have long pants, socks, and shoes appropriate for poison ivy protection. They will go on a 1-mile map & compass hike through poison ivy.
· Newbies may bring a pocket knife but cannot use it until earning the Totin’ Chip.
· Pack everything in large Rubbermaid storage tubs or footlockers. Cabin floor space is limited.
· All first-year scouts will get a Boy Scout Handbook at camp if they did not already receive one.
· All gear is subject to inspection by an adult at any time. Contraband (including food/drinks from home) will be confiscated and returned to the parents on Saturday.
· Please mark all clothes with the Scout’s name. If you can’t afford to lose it, DON’T send it to camp!
· Your son will be sleeping in a cabin on a bunk bed that’s about as comfortable as a kitchen table. Plan for padded bedding that he can sleep on top of with a sheet or blanket. It’s too hot for a sleeping bag.
· Each Scout gets a new shirt for camp which will be passed out as they arrive at camp.
