UPDATE 07/24/2013
We are days away from summer camp! Woo hoo!! Below you will find departure details, suggested pack list, and a few other housekeeping items.

Departure:
Please be at the SOS parking lot at 6:30 for a departure time of 7:00 AM. You will be stopping for lunch at Mickie D’s so please have $$$ put aside. Please wear your Class A’s.

Prerequisites:
These were due at tonight’s meeting. You may still turn them in to me on Sunday morning. It will be difficult for you to complete your MB at summer camp with out the completion of prerequisites prior to camp.

$$MONEY$$:
Please have money for lunch with you on Sunday, separate from your spending money for the week. Spending money for the trading post and souvenirs should be in an envelope marked with your name, Turned into me Sunday morning. This will be kept in a locked box during the week. You will want to save a few $$$ for the trip home in case your driver stops along the way.

** Some of the Merit Badges have a cost associated with them. i.e.: shooting sports. Please check the activity schedule (sent with the prerequisite email) to see IF you need money.
