--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Each year the pack offers at least one opportunity each Spring to attend camp. Details are provided each year.

Below is a sample agenda

Weather Information:

Currently Accuweather is saying it's going to be a cloudy and cool night on Friday night with a low of 37 deg. 

Saturday will be cloudy in the morning but sunny as the day goes on and 60 deg.

Sunday morning will be around 57 deg and sunny.

If the weather turns bad or too cold, there will be some leaders/parents/scouts that stay at camp.  Please feel free to leave if you don't like the weather and return the following morning for the day's activities.  I've tried to give accurate temperatures for the days so please dress and pack appropriately for the temperatures.

Map & Directions:

Check In:

• • Location - XXXX  Campsite (see map)

  • Time - Starts at 7:00

  • All scouts and parents attending the campout will need to fill out A and B Medical forms and turn them in at camp the day you arrive.  I suggest saving a copy of the forms so you can use them again for any summer camp you and your scout attend.

What to Bring:

• • See attached checklist of what to bring, as well as what not to bring

  • A piece of advice, less is more, as you will see by the map, we are not parking right by the campsite, meaning you will need to carry in, or wheel in if you have a wagon/cart to the campsite all of your gear, so pack smart
