Summer Camp Registration! Cole Canoe Base

It's about that time!  Summer Camp is one of the best experiences that your boy scout can have. This year, Troop 1 is going to Cole Canoe base.  You may have signed your son up for camp on a signup sheet, but now Troop 1 needs some official documentation from you. We must have your son signed up by May 10 or else you will have to pay a late fee for late registration.  Camp is $285.  If Troop funds allow, there will likely be a stipend for camp, but plan on paying a large portion of that $285. If your son has money in their account from popcorn sales or other fundraisers, that money can be applied to camp.


Location: Cole Canoe Base
1356 E. Greenwood Road
Alger, MI 48610


Date: Saturday, July 20, 2013 to Saturday, July 27, 2013

We have 4 leaders planning on attending camp this year.

As the scout's parent, THE FORMS BELOW ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.  
PLEASE READ BELOW:

Camp Registration form:

Fill out this registration form and email or give to Julia Bushong

You need to fill out this form (link above) and preferably email it to jbushonghome@charter.net
If you do not have email, you may get a printed copy from Ken and hand it in at a meeting, but that may delay your registration if you wait for a meeting to turn it in. If Asst. Scoutmaster Julia Bushong has the information prior to May 10, she will register your scout online.  

Physical: Your scout must have a current physical for camp (remember camp dates are July 20-July 27) so physical must be current for that time. Print this medical form and take it to your doctor to be filled out.  Keep a copy for yourself!! This is a different form than last year, so you must print this form!
