There will be NO vehicles allowed in camp without permission of the campmaster or event chair. Check-in and Check-out times will be stated and vehicles will be allowed in at that time and policed by the campmaster and his staff. ALL vehicles will be parked in the parking lot with the exception of the first aid vehicle.
10. Parking. Please park in the assigned area only. Vehicles will not be permitted in campsites areas. This rule will be enforced and is vitally important to maintain safety for our boys.

15. Cooking Equipment. Each den must furnish their own food to be cooked at their campsite, as well as firewood and/or charcoal.

Propane and/or butane stoves and lanterns may be used with adult supervision.

Grease must go into a can or other safe container and be packed on with the litter.
17. Campfires. Small campfires, are permitted if wind and weather conditions permit. Fires must be off the ground and ashes must be disposed in the barrels marked for such.
18. Port-a-potties will be available. Some are marked ladies only. Please instruct your Scouts to observe the signs. Please instruct Scouts that the port-a-potties are not a place to play. No rocks in port-a-potties. The Scout camp has to pay to have rocks removed and it is costly. There are no shower facilities at camp.
19. Trash. All trash must be taken to the dumpsters located on the exit road. Keep trash off the ground to avoid attracting critters to your campsite.
20. Conduct. Scout spirit at all times. Leaders are responsible for the conduct and safety of their Webelos Scouts at all times. It is the Leader's responsibility to control the actions of the den and organize the day's activities for the boys. Adults are responsible for their own conduct and safety. Guns, sheath knives and other non-Scout gear are prohibited. Scouts must be within the assigned campsite and quiet after lights out. Scouts must use the buddy system at all times.

23. Interfaith Service. The Scout Law teaches, A Scout is reverent. A Scout is reverent toward God. They are faithful in their religious duties. They respect the beliefs of others. It is important that Scouts be taught to recognize the beliefs of other Scouts and to respect those beliefs.

Session Descriptions

Den Yell Competition: The den yell competition will occur during the troop visit period (4:00 pm) at the staff area. The winners will perform their yell during the closing campfire. The most important characteristic of a good yell is that the language used is appropriate. No inappropriate, discriminatory, defaming language will be accepted. If any is witnessed, then that den will be eliminated from consideration. Please screen the yells prior to the competition.

Den Flag: Judging for the den flag competition will occur during lunch. Dens must drop off their flag at the staff area no later than 11:30 am. The flag can be picked up at the end of the troop visit time period. There are several components to a highly rated den flag. The key requirement is that the flag is made by the Webelos Scouts. Judges will be looking for:

• Unique materials
• Unique use of materials
• Legibility – both up close and from a distance
• Does it include all of the required elements
• Can it be easily displayed and carried by the den
