-All parents and legal guardians attending MUST have completed the Youth Protection Program. Turn in/email your certificates to your Den Leaders or me prior to departure (see contact information below). No exceptions will be made and this matter will be strictly enforced. The reason for this policy is because of the nature of sleeping arrangements on overnighters and all parents need to be aware. Not following this policy puts our entire Pack at risk, via the BSA Tour Permit that we have filled out. The Youth protection online course is free and takes approximately 20 minutes to go through. The link to this can be found at here https://myscouting.scouting.org/ If you had previously camped with the Pack in the last year, we already have your CERT. on file.
We prefer you send the Pack “electronic” copy and paste of your Certificate; so when you prompted to print it; also SAVE the file or copy and paste it into Wordpard or Word as a file and email it to me. Or you can login to your online account and click View Certificate link and pull up that version and copy & paste it in same fashion as a file to save and email back to me.
5.) Carpooling
-Please communicate with your respective Den Leaders about car pooling.
-All participants MUST have turned in their $50 Pack dues prior to departure. The dues are crucial for the financial stability of the Pack and the fact that this event was planned with the intent of no charge to each boy.
