Camping out with the Cub Scouts? It is a different experience than with the Scouts BSA or the family in the back yard.
First, we have to follow the rules the BSA has put before us.
The GUIDE TO SAFE SCOUTING is the BSA’s Commitment to Safety.
Our pack camps as a family!
The scouts sleep in tents with their family. Only registered scouts and family members can camp. Sorry, no pets, no friends.
You can’t run around the tents (past tents).
You are only allowed to go into YOUR OWN tent.
If our Webelos / AoL are camping in their own tent, no one else is allowed in that tent.
As with all Scouting events, we need health forms filled out on all campers.
What to bring:
Campers need*:
Clothes / Shoes
Sleeping Gear
Tents
Medications
Hygiene Items
Special Dietary Needs
6 Essentials
Pack will supply:
Food for meals (Dinner, Campfire, Breakfast)
Gear for cooking / eating
Gear for activities
*If you don’t have gear, PLEASE contact your leader IMMEDIATELY!
We can help find / loan items for you. But we need to know before hand.
