Absolutely no electronics (cell phone, walkie talkie, etc). Summer Camp, like all Troop activities, are NO ELECTRONICS events.
Troop 41 has a One Strike policy. If a leader sees a scout using electronics during an event they will ask the scout to hand over the phone and it will be returned to the scout's parents at the end of the event.Bring money for the trading post. Crooked Creek suggests about $50 per scout for the week. Younger scouts are encouraged to keep their money with Mrs. Foster, who will be available at the trading post anytime it is open.

Crocs can be used for showers, but they are not permitted in the rest of the campground.

If you are in COPE, TOWER, or CLIMBING: Wear long pants, tennis shoes or boots with good traction, and water bottle

Scouts will return on Saturday morning. We will send an email/text with an ETA once they are on their way. Scouts must help with unloading the trailer and equipment before leaving. They will be dismissed by the SPL once everything is done.
Summer Camp will be held at Camp Crooked Creek every year
Medical Forms
It's time to update med forms for 2024. Med forms are only good for one year. Summer Camp will not take the previous version this year. Forms A, B1 and B2 are required for all adults, siblings and scouts that attend any activity. These can be completed by the parent.
Also, T41 needs your vaccination record and copy of your insurance card. Med Form C will be required if you are attending summer camp. Form C must be completed by a physician.
On page B1 of the med form it asks for Council Name and Number. Please enter "Blue Grass Council" and "204"
When turning in med forms, please bring 3 copies to a scout meeting, or send them by US mail to Mrs. Fox. Do NOT email these forms.
