Troop 390

SUMMER CAMP VOLUNTEER SIGN-UP

Summer Camp is one of the premier events of the year for the Troop. Part of making this a great success is the participation of the Adults. Every year we ask for volunteers to spend time out at the camp during the week to assist the Troop Leadership.

Please look over the schedule below and see if you have time to help out.

Please help if you can. It takes a lot of effort to make sure our boys have a wonderful experience. Phone or e-mail Mr. Horvath with the times you would be able to come out and help with the boys.  

Duties of Adults augmenting Troop leadership at camp are described here:

Period A
The first year emphasis program, called T-2-1 (for Tenderfoot, 2nd and 1st class), is for Scouts who have not been to summer camp before and who need progress toward Tenderfoot, Second Class and First Class ranks. Our goal is to provide adult supervision for our Scouts to make sure they get to the program site and behave while in the program.
Period B
This period is between lunch and dinner. Scouts are supposed to rest at the campsite until 2:30 p.m. when the open activities resume on an individual basis and the Scouts are free to go in and out of the campsite. Our goal is to provide adult supervision in the campsite to monitor the activities and prevent dangerous horse play. Adults can assist Scouts with activities, too.
Period C
During the evenings the Scouts can go to programs, work on things in the campsite or just hang out. Here again the adults insure that the campsite is safe and provide counseling to the scouts.
Period D
Two deep leadership is required at all times, even at night. At this point we do not know which leaders, in addition to Mr. Horvath, will be at camp for the week. Therefore, we schedule other adults to insure we have adequate coverage at all times.
Saturday
Parents arrive at the campsite at 9:00 a.m. Scouts pack, load cars, transport Troop gear to the trailer and clean the campsite. Everyone leaves after camp inspection is complete. (Usually about 10:30 p.m.)

Volunteer time slots are illustrated on the schedule below.  You can also print the sign-up schedule, fill it out, and bring it to a troop meeting.
