BUDDY SYSTEM

This camporee is like going to Kings Island or Disney World....go where-ever you want,  when-ever you want. USING THE BUDDY SYSTEM.   No one is to walk around alone. 

Buddy's of 2 scouts minimum but larger buddy groups can buddy up too.

NO SOLO WANDERING.   If a leader sees you alone, you will wait on the sidelines until more troop members can be found to join up with.

 

This is an all day event so, we do NOT return to camp for lunch.  

There are lunch trucks all about the site, so bring money for this.

We do return to camp for dinner at 5pm.

 

On Sunday we will try to depart about 9am-10am.  Arrive back about 12pm or so.  Look for a REMIND message.
