Resources for Campouts

We've collected important resources for every scout to help them prepare for adventures on campouts.

Personal Camping Gear Checklist

Use this list to help prepare before any campout.  Make sure to bring the ten essentials and to pack clothing and bedding that is appropriate for the weather conditions.

Patrol Gear Checklist

Use this list to check patrol boxes and shared equipment.  For every campout, each patrol must check the patrol box and coordinate with the quartermaster or scoutmaster to make sure that we have all the appropriate equipment.  

Menu Planning

Use this list to plan for all meals on your campout.  Each patrol must have the menu plan approved by the scoutmaster or assistant scoutmaster BEFORE the grub master can purchase the food.
