You must also include a copy of both the front and back of your insurance card.

We will be collecting forms on Monday June 6 at the regular meeting. Please bring FOUR copies of each document as we will not have sufficient time to copy them at that late a date and have to provide them to various programs.

Make sure we have the following:

  1. Fully completed and updated medical forms
  2. Copies of front and back of insurance cards
  3. Participant Information Form
  4. Parental Consent Form - signed by both the Scout and parent/guardian
  5. Other forms as needed, ATV, Campership Funds, etc.

You can find out more about the BSA medical requirements on this page.

Camp Durant provides a list of what to bring to camp.

We also have our own list: Troop 486 Summer Camp Checklist
