 GETTING READY FOR CAMP
 
It is useful to pack a trunk to keep clothing, etc. dry if it rains.  Though the camp provides tents, you may want to bring a zippered tent.  DO NOT BRING FOOD OR ELECTRONICS.  Click the link below for a packing list.
 
Please click on the link below and look at the Camp Manatoc program guide for information about what your Scout will need to bring or buy at camp to complete his badges.  Send sufficient money to camp with your Scout to purchase kits, ammunition or whatever is needed.  It is also helpful to send some spending money for snacks and the like.  Keep in mind that you can replenish the money reserves on Wednesday at Parents' Night. 
 
If you plan to take your Scout out of camp for any reason during the week, you must bring an executed Camper Release Form to the meeting place.  Click on the link below for a copy of the form.

CAMP MANATOC PROGRAM GUIDE

CAMPER RELEASE FORM

DEPARTURE, SUN. JULY 5th:

We will meet at the Medina Municipal Pool at 10:30.  If you have not done so, bring your medical form and any prescription medications.  Medications must be in a plastic zip lock bag with the Scout's name.  Class B t-shirts and Scout hats will be on sale.  The Scouts take a troop photo on arrival at camp, so SCOUTS MUST WEAR CLASS A UNIFORMS. If you want to purchase a photo, that is also taken care of at the meeting place (I believe the cost is $7).  When the Scouts arrive at camp, one of the first things they do is take the mandatory swimming test, so please have your Scout wear his trunks under the Class A uniform.  We will drive in a caravan, but if you want driving directions, click on the link below.  Troop 501 will camp at the Buckeye campsite.  Please click on the link below for a map of Camp Manatoc (I have trouble with it on my computer, so will have some old hard copies available at our meeting spot).

Parent's Night is Wednesday, July 8th.  The event starts with the evening Retreat at 5:45 where you can see the troops march in, receive recognition and retire the colors.  After the Retreat, the troop hosts a potluck picnic at the campsite.  All families are asked to bring a main dish and drinks as well as their own tableware.  The Senior Patrol, Dragon Patrol and Shark Patrol families are also asked to bring a dessert.  The Wolverine Patrol and the Bobcat Patrol families are also asked to bring side dishes or salads.  Plan on arriving at camp no later than 5:00 to make sure you have time to  park, find your way around and get your dishes to the campsite.
