Information
Useful packing list options are listed here:
The BSA requires that every person attending a campout or outdoor activity (whether they be a Scout, accompanying adult or visitor) is required to complete Sections A and B of form 680-001. We refer this this as “Medical forms A and B”, which you can download from this link:
If you or your Scout is attending a longer term campout and requires form C, then you need to use the “Medical forms A, B and C” link below. Note that page C requires a doctors approval. It is best to call your pediatrician or doctor and ask if they can handle this as an admin task, or if you need to set up an appointment. Each provider has different processes.
2025 fee is $200/Scout.
Please submit by November 15th using Zelle to:
troop841@gmail.com. Remember to write the scout name on the payment.
