Greg Karn and I attended the
Ockanickon 2017 Leader’s meeting today and I have to say being there brought
back many good memories…there are some old rules some new, some old badges some
new, some old activities some new. For any new scouts attending summer camp we
will have an informational meeting as time nears but some basics that were
covered today were:
- All
scouts must have a completed BSA medical form, parts A, B & C signed
by a physician. This must be completed and provided to the scoutmaster by
7/15/2017. Scouts at camp without medical forms will be sent home. You can
find these forms for your doctor at: http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/HealthandSafety/ahmr.aspx
- Only
campers and Troop leadership will be allowed onsite throughout camp week.
Parents are welcome at Sunday drop off and for closing ceremonies on
Saturday at pick up. On Saturday there is a camp closing ceremony on the
parade field and a troop closing ceremony at the campsite. Parents are
welcome to both, but non-campers are not allowed onsite at camp throughout
the week.
