Parents are encouraged to spend a few nights camping with the troop. Families are welcome on Friday evening for Family Night and the final awards camp fire. Scouts going to camp may choose class schedules and complete medical forms now. See the paragraph on Registration below. Completed medical forms must be signed by both parents and a physician, and are due before we leave for camp.

Check
with our Advancement Chairman to make sure that ALL your records are updated before Camp starts.
Camp is a great place to complete requirements in addition to the merit
badges you take at Camp AND get your Board of Review for your next rank done while at Camp.
YOU MAY START THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AT HOME: You can also download the 2008 Summer Camp Guide to begin the registration process from home. We will need to review your schedule at a Troop Meeting to make sure you are in the right classes and that you qualify for the classes you have selected. First year Scouts will probably be enrolled in the Eaglebound Program. See an adult leader to register for this program.
