The earlier you get your permission slip and money in by, the lower the price of camp. Permission slips are available on the troop website and at troop meetings.

IMPORTANT: The new BSA medical forms are required starting this year. This means everyone will have to fill out a new Medical Form including Part B - the doctor's signature. The new medical forms are only good for 12 months and everyone's form was dated prior to camp last year, meaning new forms are needed this year. If you child needs a physical for a sport: bring the BSA form along and get it signed at the same time. Also, some pharmacies run free health clinics... You may be able to get the forms signed there.
