Summer Camp

Scouts who are attending summer camp are to meet at Camp Rainey Mountain at noon on Sunday.  Please arrive in uniform and be on time so that your gear can be taken by truck to the campsite.  If you are late, you will have to carry your gear in ( it's a pretty long way).

Bring $8 in correct change for pizza and ice cream on Thursday night.

Scouts are advised to bring 2 pair swim trunks, water shoes and extra sneakers.  A latching footlocker is recommended.  Consult your Scout Handbook for other information on what to pack.

Get ready for a great week at summer camp!

Get Ready for Summer Camp



It's time to get ready for Summer Camp at Rainey Mountain!  Are you ready?


Have you paid your camp fee to Mrs. Elaine?  Camp fees are now due!

Have you paid your Boy Scout Dues?  Double check and get your dues in!

Have you completed your annual BSA Medical Form?  Remember, a doctor's physical and immunization record is required for summer camp.  If you have not had a physical in the last year, you will need one for summer camp.  It can be difficult to get doctors' appointments at the last minute, so plan ahead!

Find the BSA Medical Form here:  BSA Medical Form

Camp Rotary June 8-10

The June outing is a camping trip to Camp Rotary.  Those who need to take the Swim Test to be eligible for advancement and summer camp water activities will be able to take the swim test during this outing.  In addition to regular camping gear, all Scouts should bring swimming gear including swimsuits, towels, water shoes (no flip-flops or open-toed shoes) and sunscreen.

Meet at the Scout Hut at 6:00 p.m. Friday afternoon to load gear and leave together.  As always, Scouts will travel in uniform.

Menus, duty rosters and grubmasters were settled at the Troop meeting.  Please bring the agreed upon amount (usually $7) to reimburse your patrol's grubmaster.
