Thursday 9/29, 5:15pm, MSPC: We will be taking the trailer out to camp on Thursday to ease the logistics for arriving on Friday evening. There will be a large number of scouts arriving at Peterloon on Friday night, with lots of activity; so Council allows troops to start setting-up their camps on Thursday evening. Setting-up camp ahead of time will allow our Scouts and AOLs to settle in Friday night and not be fighting the other troops/scouts/buses/daylight once we arrive. So what that means:
a. I would encourage all scouts/adults attending to get your personal gear to the trailer on Thursday, so you don’t have to manage carrying that heavy load onto the transport buses. Whatever you don’t get into your primary bag on Thursday, can be put into a backpack/daypack and/or carried with you on Friday.
b. I’ll need 1-2 additional adults and 3-4 older scouts to pack the trailer with the troop gear we’ll need (plus personal gear); then to go with me out to Cub World on Thursday. At a minimum, we would like to get the garage and kitchen area set-up, as well as potentially get the tents set-up in the proper locations. Please let me know if you can help out Thursday night!
