We recommend packing your items in either a footlocker or plastic tote to help protect from rain and keep things organized. Clothing and personal property should be marked with your child’s name and Pack number if possible to help reunite lost items to their owners. There is a lost and found box in the dining hall in case you loose anything. Suggested packing items shown below for (weeklong/weekend). Please include your Scout in the packing process so that they know what is in their tote/what is theirs and learn how to prep for a trip.
DO NOT BRING alcohol, tobacco, fireworks, firearms, bows, ammunition, arrows, chainsaws, pets, bicycles, electronics of any kind including cell phones, anything expensive, dangerous or inappropriate.
Cub Scouts may not carry pocket knives. All knives must be kept with an adult leader and Scouts with their whittling chip must be directly supervised by an adult when allowed to use one.
