Hello Scouts and Parents,
We are just a few days away from a fun time at summer camp yet again! Please save this email. As you prepare for Summer Camp, here is some more information. Let me know if you have any questions or if I've left anything out.
The weather is looking to be great for summer camp!
1. Departure: We will meet at the church promptly at 7:30 AM on Sunday Morning. We will meet in the back of the parking lot. Scouts need to come in their scout uniform ready to travel. Scouts should be wearing their uniform shirt and green pants or shorts. Parents need to join the troop Remind if you have not already done so. Text @363satx to 81010 for a link to get set up.
Scouts need to put their footlocker and gear behind the trailer to be loaded. Scouts should have their daypack ready to go for camp. Their daypack should include a hat, water bottle, lunch, scout book, sunscreen, bug spray, flashlight, medication, pen, paper, and anything else they may need for the trip and until after dinner. It may be a while before we are able to unload and get set up after arriving at camp. Scouts will have the opportunity to do rank work on the way to camp. Bring your scout book!
Parents, when you drop off your scout, I will need you to fill out a form that must be done before we depart for camp.
2. As you pack for camp, be sure to "Be Prepared!" Attached is the camper packing list.
If you already told me you are bringing a bike, you must have a helmet.
OA members, don't forget your sash.
Mr. Jacobson had a wonderful idea for camp. We will have themed shirt days with shirts you already have.
Monday - Purple Class B
Tuesday - School Shirt Day (any school, your school, college)
Wednesday - Super Hero Day
Thursday - Hawaiin Shirt Day
Friday - Any scout shirt Day (Summer Camp shirt, 363 shirt)
Remember a Scout is clean, don't forget your toiletries like soap and shampoo!
If you are in any merit badges with horses, plan to ride horses, or are in the ATV program, you must have jeans and closed-toed shoes to participate.
3. Patrols be ready to use your songs and yell at camp.
4. If anyone has missing paperwork or forms, bring those to the meeting tomorrow night. I've been in touch with everyone that is missing information. Please bring what is needed so we can close the paperwork chapter.
5. Arrival from camp:
Please check the Remind App. We will be returning Friday, June 18th. We should be back by 8:00 PM. A message will be sent out.
Please reach out if you have questions!
Yours in Scouting,
Michael Steelman
