Campouts for the 2006 - 2007 Scout Year

 

• July 21- 28, 2007 - Summercamp, Cole Canoe Base, Deadwood Site with Troop 1111

 

Cost Of Camping

Except for special activities (climbing, canoeing, for instance) the cost of camping for each boy includes food, transportation, camping, and registration fees. The troop usually covers the difference in fees. Most campouts will utilize the “patrol method” of cooking

The following is an estimate of costs per scout for the Scouting year 2006 - 2007

Remember, the more fundraiser items you sell, the better off you will be for your escrow account.

Event	Food	Camping Fees	Transportation	Total	Contributed by Troop**	Scouts Cost
Weekend campoust:	$15.00	$10 - 13.00	$3.00	$28 - $31.00	$0	$25.00
Summercamp:	$60.00	$265 - $325.00	$20.00	$335 - $405.00	$See summercamp page	$See summercamp page

The Scouts cost needs to be paid to the camping coordinator by the Monday prior to camp. It may be taken from the scout’s escrow account if he has enough to cover the cost of the outing.
