| We Wear Uniforms Every Day We will wear the Scout Uniform while traveling to and from camp and every day for flag ceremonies and dinner. The Activity Uniform can be worn at all other times throughout the day. The leaders will encourage the Scouts to only wear uniforms when required and to change anytime a dirty activity is about to happen. Please mark all clothing, especially uniforms, with the Scout’s name to avoid mix-ups. On Wednesday the leaders will collect Scout Uniforms only and launder them. | Scout Uniform - Scout Shirt (long or short sleeve)

| Optional personal items you will want to think about may include: Fishing Gear, Book to Read, or Leisure Toys Advancement Items Scouts should read merit badge books for courses they will take and use common sense to be sure they are wearing the right clothing to participate in the activity the merit badge requires. Examples are climbing required shoes you can climb with, welding required jeans and leather boots. What Not to Bring There are many common items that are not recommended bringing to camp that distract the Scouts and can serve to get them in trouble. These include expensive Items such as phones & tablets, (see paragraph below). Other items are: water guns, fixed blade knives and aerosol(s) of any kind. The BSA does not promote the advertising of alcoholic beverages or other "cute" messages printed on t-shirts. The Scouts should only pack t-shirts that are Scouting-related themes or blank. | Valuables The troop and camp will not be responsible for valuables brought to camp. We suggest that you do not bring them. However, if you must, you may want to consider bringing a trunk or suitcase that can be locked. For the Scout’s convenience, he may deposit his money at the Troop Bank in the commissary, the bank will be available twice a day at Breakfast and Dinner (please place the money in an envelope with the Scout’s name on it; singles are best). Many Scouts like to hold onto their money, but regret their decision after the money is lost or stolen. As with any valuable item, the fewer Scouts that know you have it, the less likely it will be bothered with, so keep your stuff to yourself. |  | |
