What to Bring to Camp

What to bring to camp.
Everyone who was at the Summer Camp meeting received a packet that included a list of what you need to bring to camp. I will re-post that list here for your reference:

If you have any questions about what to bring or how to pack it, Please ask.

- Sleeping Bag

- Rain Gear -VERY IMPORTANT

- Sneakers

- Hiking Boots

- Complete Summer Uniform

This includes:

Uniform Shirt
Uniform Shorts or Pants
SCOUT SOCKS
Troop Neckerchief
Troop Hat
Scout Belt
If this is a problem for anyone please tell us, the troop has old uniform pieces that we save for future scouts to use.

- Warm Jacket/ Sweatshirt

- Regular cotton socks (8-9 pairs)

- T-shirts (7-8)

- Undershorts (8-9 pair)

- Swimming Suit (2 if possible)

- Long Pants (Jeans or Work Pants)

- Sleeping Clothes (it gets cold at night)

- Ground Cloth (if taking an outdoor merit badge)

- Toilet Kit:
Containing:
Soap, Deodorant, & Shampoo
Toothbrush & Paste & CUP
Comb & Brush
Towels & Washcloth
Mirror
NOTE: The Scout should bring at least 2 towels, the thinner the better. These towels will be used everyday in the pool, river and shower. A thick towel will not dry in the sun quickly enough to be used again that day.

- Flashlight

- Scout Knife (Totin Chit may be earned)

- Small Pillow

- Insect Repellent (NO AEROSOL Cans !!)
Aerosol cans will destroy the waterproofing of the tents and is the #1 cause of leaking. Use a pump or cream repellent.

- Personal First Aid Kit

- Medical Form !! (No form, no Camp.)

- Money for Trading Post ($30)

- River Shoes (these should be an old pair of sneakers or secure sandals. Flip-Flops do not work. These shoes are REQUIRED when the scout goes in the river due to the sharp rocks on the river bed.)

- 6 Feet of Rope

- Boy Scout Handbook

A FUN Loving Spirit....

Important:

There are to be NO Radio's, TV's, or other items that could interrupt other Scouts. This is supposed to be a week of relaxation away from the daily noise that we all live with. Keep that in mind when packing.
