1. Plan to arrive at camp between the hours of 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.. Check in starts at 1 p.m.
   
2. Leader checks in at Camp Office, meets camp guide for his troop and travels to camp site. Leaders should have the following with them for check in:

1. Receipts from Council Office showing payment of fees.
2. Completed Rosters

3. The camp guide will then accompany the troop to the campsite, complete the campsite check-in, and ask everyone to change into swim trunks and shoes. The Guide will then accompany the troop to the main parking lot where troop leader will meet with the CAMP DIRECTOR, PAY FEES, TURN IN TROOP ROSTERS AND ADVANCEMENT REGISTRATION, AND THE HEALTH OFFICER WILL CHECK MEDICAL FORMS.
   
4. The Guide will take the unit to the dining hall for orientation, then will accompany the troop to the waterfront area for the swimming classifications.
   
5. The guide will then give the troop a tour of camp, after the troop has had time to settle into the campsite. If the unit leader would prefer to give the tour himself, he may do so. It is recommended that the boys become acquainted with the camp on Sunday afternoon.
   
6. The troop then completes setting up the campsite and has free time until the evening flag ceremony (wear uniforms.) One tent will be set up in the campsite as a model. Set up the rest of your tents to meet the needs of your troop.

Medical Examinations

Each camper and each adult under 40 years of age must have a Class 1 & 2 examination form completed prior to coming to camp. Adults over 40 must have a Class 3 examination form completed prior to coming to camp. A review of examination forms will be done at camp as part of check-in. There will not be a doctor at camp to do medical examinations. No one can be allowed to camp without the required examinations. A copy of the medical forms are attached to this Leaders' Guide and may be reproduced by you, or you may request medical forms from the Council's Wyatt Service Center. Parent signatures must be on all medical forms. A complete physical at Pocahontas Memorial Hospital will cost a minimum of $200.

Camp Equipment Furnished

Tents, cots, and table are furnished for each campsite. Additional equipment may be obtained from the Quartermaster (if available). Upon arrival, all equipment furnished to the troop will be inspected by the troop's senior patrol leader and the camp guide assigned to the troop and any damage will be noted. The unit is thereafter responsible for all damage done to camp equipment. Replacement or repair of damaged equipment must be arranged with the Quartermaster before the unit leaves camp.

One tent is provided for every two Scouts and only one tent is provided for every two adults in each campsite. The only exception will be for adult female leaders. If only one female leader, she will be provided a tent. If more than one female leader, the two will share a tent. We do not furnish supply tents.
