Activity: Troop 75 will be camping in tents for one night (Friday) at Trailside in the Watchung Reservation. Saturday morning we will be doing rank advancement. In the afternoon we will be cooking turkeys in camp using the "turkey on a chain" method. Each patrol will also prepare multiple food items. Families of campers are invited to join us on Saturday night for a "Family Holiday Feast". We will be eating outside in a pavilion, dress warmly. If the weather for Saturday night is expected to be poor, we will have the feast at the Methodist Church. Details on next page. Families should indicate at the bottom of this form how many additional members will attend the feast, and see the following pages for instructions to bring a food item to the feast.
Camper's packing list: See page 292-293 of the Boy Scout Handbook. We will be winter camping, which may require two sleeping bags (one inside the other) or one sleeping bag rated to low temperature. Also bring a foam sleeping pad, synthetic long underwear (i.e. UnderArmorTM), and a sleeping hat. Boots, hats, and gloves are mandatory (no sneakers).
Permission and payment are due by Thursday, November 21.
