Summer Camp time is upon us!!

Please meet at the VFW at 11am on Sunday.  

We have several parents driving to ensure we get to camp as we will not be taking the trailer. For those who volunteered please ensure you can carry scouts and their totes.
  • I will be present to open the trailer for scouts to check out tents. 
  • Our campsite will be "Turner" which is a good walk from the parking lot so please make sure your totes have wheels.
  • Don't forget a good water bottle, sunscreen and bug spray. 
******** If you have not physically handed me a copy of your forms A, B, C and medical insurance card copy- I do not have.  If you do not bring with you Sunday, you will not be able to attend camp.

See you sunday!!
