Each Camp participant is required to wear the official camp t-shirt everyday. Our Camp involves a lot of walking. We advise that every participant wear an older pair of sneakers (with socks) daily. The Scouts will be exposed to sprinklers with may soil/ruin a new pair of shoes! There are no sandals allowed in Camp... not on Cub Scouts, Camp Aides, or Adults. Anyone wearing sandals will need to leave the Camp site or sit in the Administrative Area until appropriate footwear is provided.

All participants are responsible for providing his or her own lunches and drinks for the lunch time period. It is advised that each Cub Scout, Kids Korner and Tiger attendees put their healthy lunch inside of a labeled, one gallon zip lock baggie. Den Leaders are expected to provide a cooler with ice for the storage of their Den’s lunches. It is encouraged to coordinate with other parents within the Den to take turns providing ice for the cooler. Camp will not supply ice for individual Den coolers. One-day parents are required to bring lunch on the day they attend camp.

Due to changes in National Camp Standards, lunches will no longer be
offered to Camp Aides or Staff Members.
