Summer Camp 2017



Hello everyone!  Hard to believe, but it's time for us to start thinking about, and preparing for, this years Summer Camp.  The Troop is registered for camp the first full week of August (Aug 6-12) at Camp Squanto, Plymouth.

IMPORTANT!  We need a minimum of 3 leaders / registered adults to attend the week of summer camp in order for our Scouts to attend.  We do have some flexibility so that coverage can be broken up by nights or a couple of days, but we need a commitment for coverage or we cannot send the Scouts.  If you can help provide leadership coverage, please contact Mr. Swindle so that we can plan who will be available and assess coverage for the week.  We really cannot stress this enough.  No adults means no summer camp.

Mrs. O'Connor & Mrs. Rebell will be organizing the sign-ups, medical forms, and payments.  We are estimating that the total cost for camp this year, including picture, will be between $375 - $425.  We're just waiting on an official amount from Camp Squanto.

For anyone going to camp this year, and this should be ALL of our scouts 😉, we will need a minimum $50 deposit by the March 16th troop meeting.  Full payment will be due no later than May 4th.  Please make all checks payable to 'Troop 20'.

Additional details regarding drop off & pickup will be forthcoming, along with a list of what your scout needs to bring to camp so stay tuned.
