The updated 2016 BSA Medical forms are required for all Scouts AND for any adult spending the night or using the waterfront. All forms must be completed within one year of the last day of camp. Additional information can be found at the Spirit of Adventure (SOA) Camping website. Please fill in Parts A, B, and C. Your doctor needs to sign the BSA form as the camp will not accept the doctor’s own physical form. Please e-mail a PDF copy of the completed form or turn in a printed copy by Thursday, May 19th. If not submitted by this date, please make arrangements to get these forms to David Barnard. See contact information on the sign-up form.
Scouts can attend camps during other weeks, instead of or in addition to the Troop week. These are known as provisional weeks. The Troop is not involved in coordinating enrollment for these weeks. Please see the SOA website for more information.
