Sign up now for the Fall Campout on October 14, 2017 at Camp Resolute Scout Reservation in Bolton MA.
We still need plenty of volunteers to help with games and activities. Please let Dave Varner know ASAP if you can help with any of these activities:
Scouts and Families must provide their own tent, sleeping bags, tarps, etc. The pack will provide all cooking equipment and meals. Attached is a list of camping gear that you may consider. You definitely do not need all these items, but this gives you a good sense of what you may need. The keys are that you will need to supply your own tent and sleeping bag and make sure you have proper clothing. It will be in the 70s but down into 50s at night. All food is provided. Bring water bottles and snacks.
There'll be games, hikes, food, a campfire, skits, jokes, songs and FUN! We need a head count to plan the food amounts, so please use the Signup Genius by Friday 10/6 to give plenty of time for food planning.
