Dear Cub Scout Parents,

We are just two and a half weeks away from Resident Camp! I hope that your boys are excited – it certainly is a fun experience.

Listed below is some important information:
Click here to see this information with links and embedded documents located under Pack Events on the Cub Scout Resident Camp Page.

1. Every adult attending camp needs to take youth protection course and print the card at the end of the course. This link has more information about the course: http://www.scouting.org/Training/youthprotection.aspx On the right side of that webpage you will see instructions about how to take the course.
2. Every scout needs a signed parental permission form. Have a copy for our files and one for you. This permission form can be found on the last page of the attached PDF. You can ignore the other pages.
3. We will conduct swim checks at Resident Camp after we check in
4. If you would like a copy of the group photo, the cost is $10
5. If possible, each scout should bring a clean 16 oz. or less plastic soda bottle with the lid. This will be used to make a boat for the rain gutter boat race. Note: this will be the first year I’ve seen them do a rain gutter regatta, so I’m not sure what all is involved.

We don’t have our campsite assignment yet. I will let you all know where we’ll be once I receive the assignment.

I’d like for everyone to be up at the camp by 12:30 – 1:00 pm, so we can get checked in, do the swim checks, and then have time to settle in before dinner at 6:00.

Thanks,
David Geenawalt
