Camp information

We will be attending camp from June 26th to July 5th.  We will be meeting to leave for camp around  8:00 a.m. on Thursday, June 26th.  We are camping in Sawmill, campsite Hickory. The boys will need to wear their class A uniform to camp.  Scout Sunday will be held on June 29th.  This is a day when parents are invited to attend and bring a couple of side dishes for a pot luck meal.  You may arrive at 10:00 a.m.  The meal will be held at 12:00.  You may stay until 5:00 p.m.

Camp Physicals and Health forms

Health forms need to be filled out and returned on each boy.  Also physicals are due before your scout can attend camp.  Physicals are good for only three years.  If your scout has not had a physical for three years then he will need a new one in order to attend camp this year.  All new campers are required to have a physical.  You may download the forms off of the website.

Quotable Quotes
Signed by: belindaj- 02 Mar 2006
A Scout is Obedient. A Scout follows the rules of his family, school, and troop. He obeys the laws of his community and country. If he thinks these rules and laws are unfair, he tries to have them changed in an orderly manner rather than disobey them.
(Scout Law)
