LABEL YOUR GEAR
Scouts and Leaders should mark all their
items with their name and unit number.
Many, many items are lost or misplaced and
are never claimed. If items are marked we
will try our best to return them to the
rightful owner.
PACKING
Pack so you can get all your gear into a single load, preferably in a backpack. It is not a long distance from the parking lot to the campsite, but you don't want to be dragging a footlocker up the hill.
