Mr. Swindle and Mr. Lamoureux
attended the camp pre-meeting earlier this week and both are looking forward to
a great week!
Summer Camp drop off will be
at 1:00 PM on Sunday. Please do not arrive earlier than 1:00 PM. Please have your scout wear his
swimsuit as the first activity Sunday afternoon will be a swim test.
Camp Squanto, 200 Cutters Field
Road, Plymouth, MA, but the website notes that GPS may be incorrect. We
recommend you print out these paper directions as a backup:
Here is a list of suggested
items to bring to camp:
We are still missing a few
medical forms and payments. All payments must be turned in on Sunday
before your scout can stay at camp AND all medical forms must be complete along
with medicine turned in inside properly marked containers. We have to
settle our bill with Camp Squanto Monday morning and must have all payments on
Sunday. If you scout does not have a completed medical form and their
payment is not made in full, they cannot stay at camp until these items are
addressed and resolved. If you have some type of issue that is delaying
the payment or medical form, please contact Mrs. Swindle by email at sherriswindle@verizon.net or by call/text at (508)
930-4889.
Parents must stay until your scout
is cleared through the medical clearance line. Please plan a few hours
for the drop off process. Parents also cannot leave without their Parent
Guidebook.
Pictures – there will be a group
photo taken during the week of our Troop 20 scouts. There is a $13 fee
for the photo and this money must also be paid on Sunday. The fee goes
directly to Camp Squanto for the costs of producing this photo. The photo
makes a nice memory of camp for your scout memory book. Checks can be
made out to Troop 20 and given to Mrs. Swindle at drop off. Mrs.Swindle
will be tracking the payments to advise Mr. Swindle and Mr. Lamoureux who has
ordered a photo.
Reminder – electronics usage by
Troop 20 Boy Scouts will be allowed under limited conditions. Usage will
include being allowed to communicate with parents/guardians and to take photos
if they would like. The time for usage
will be after all activities, dinner and all camp site related responsibilities
are complete. Time usage will be up to 8:00
PM. After 8:00 PM,all devices will be taken and locked in the troop trailer. It will be at the discretion of Mr. Swindle
and Mr. Lamoureux if such devices are being abused, and should such abuse be
discovered, those devices will be collected and perhaps parents/ guardians will
be contacted as well. It is up to the Scoutmaster to determine if further
parental notice will be required, to also include removal from camp.
We are looking forward to a
great week! Please remind your scout to be respectful of fellow scouts
and the leadership donating their time so that everyone can have a great week!
