Money: Money should be broken into two parts.
The first must be unsealed envelope of twenty (20) singles with the scouts name on it. This envelope should be given to the Scoutmaster before leaving the parking lot of the church. This should more than sufficient for the Scout. The Scoutmaster will not have any additional money to make change for the scout.
The Second is money the scout needs to have to buy lunch at McDonalds on the way up. This money should be with the Scout and not the Scoutmaster or in the envelope.
Medication:
All medication should be clearly labeled with the scout name with a letter with an explanation for the Camp Nurse. This should be a clearly marked bag with the Scout name.
Camp Chairs:
If you do not bring a chair do not use someone else's.
## Items so marked are required for Merit badge work in swimming, lifesaving, etc. or pioneer, camping. Failure to bring these items could result in an incomplete merit badge or advancement being held back due to lack of documentation.
** Items should be packed last and on top so they are easily accessible, as they are required as soon as you arrive in camp. An extra copy of the Medical forms would be necessary if you had not handed it to Mr. McKenna already.
++ Required for mountain bike program
*** Water Shoes/Socks are to be worn for all boating activities at the waterfront. They are not to be worn any other time.
Keep in mind that you are provided with a Steel cot without a mattress, so bring a Pad with you. About 30 x 65 should be big enough or a standard pad on top of a ground cloth will do.
As always scouts are required to travel in full uniform
