Camp meeting 6/12

There will be a ‘Summer Camp 101’ parent meeting this Tuesday, 6/12 @ 7:30pm during the regular boy scout troop meeting. Come have your last minute questions answered, learn what you should and should not help your scout pack, what your scout’s days will be like, etc. We will also be discussing our troop Code of Conduct that all of the scouts will be signing on Tuesday.

Before the meeting, please make sure you’ve read the Camp Read Parents Guide (http://www.wpcbsa.org/Download/ReadParentsGuide.pdf) – you may even want to print it out. We will not have extra copies at the meeting.
