SUMMER ACTIVITIES

SUMMER CAMP – It is not too late to sign up. The price this year is $320.

VENMO – @Christell-Casey. PAY PAL – @christellcasey1. I can also take a check at our upcoming meeting this Tuesday.

As soon as your scout is paid in full, I can register them for merit badges. Unfortunately, the Grand Columbia Council does not have a parent portal. So, you will have to send me the list of classes your scout want to take and I will sign them up. Bonaparte also has classes for Tenderfoot, Second Class and First Class, so if your scout needs rank advancement after this crazy year, this might be a very good option for them. Here is a link to the class schedule:classes-2Download

Also, don’t forget you need a BSA Medical Examination. Here is the form.health-formDownload

Once you have it completed, please email them to Jen Oberst at jkoberst@gmail.com. You can also bring it to me at this weeks meeting, or coordinate with Jen for personal delivery to her.

We will be having a Summer Camp Parents meeting on June 22 at the Shelter in the park at 6 PM.  Please bring something to write on and your own seating. There are some COVID guidelines that have been issued by the Camp. They are attached here for your review.covid-guidelinesDownload
