Guide To Safe Scouting

Posted on May 30 2026 - 2:09pm

The Guide To Safe Scouting is an overview of the Scouting policies and procedures.  All Leaders should be familiar with the document.  Parents should also review the document.  This is a set of guidelines which forms the backbone of how the Troop and Scouting operate.  It does not cover all situations or everything in detail but is an overview.  Click here for the current online version.  A PDF has been placed in the Files section of the website.

Medical Forms for Summer Camp

Posted on May 27 2026 - 12:16am

Summer Campers:  Annual medical records for ALL participants (youth and adult) need to be updated before camp.  We'll need two hard copies of forms A-C plus two copies of your insurance card.  One set goes to the camp medical office and other stays at our campsite for our adult leaders to reference in an emergency.

Summer camp merit badges - new approach for 2026

Posted on May 27 2026 - 12:16am

Summer Campers:  You may have noticed that most merit badges only had sign-up slots in the mornings.  New this year, the camp is treating the afternoon periods as "open" for you to choose what you want to do.  You're free to "drop-in" to merit badge classes open house style or you can swim, shoot, hike, and enjoy all the activities the camp offers without being tied to a set schedule. 

Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT)

Posted on May 27 2026 - 12:16am

If you are a registered adult and you have not taken the new 90-minute Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT) course that replaces the older Youth Protection Training (YPT), you need to take by May 31, 2026.  If you have already taken the new Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT) course, it is good for 1 year from the date you completed it.  Before the one-year expiration you can take the new 20-minute Safeguarding Youth (SYT) Refresher course.  Please Note: If your SYT is expired for 7 days or more, you must take the full 90-minute course again.  If you do not pass the refresher course quiz with at least 80% on your first attempt, you will need to take the full 90-minute course again.
