Summer Camp Camperships
Two important items:
From Jeff Lukens, Asst. Scoutmaster:
Hey Troop 5!
Thursday is the first day of spring, so that means it
is time to start thinking about Summer Camp at Camp
Mattatuck. We will be going to camp from August
10th-16th. As always, this is the final week of the
2008 camping season at Mattatuck.
Information on individual payments will be mailed out
in the next couple of weeks. The base price for your
week at camp will be $315. Your payments will vary,
however, depending on the discounts applied and
contributions from the troop based on fundraising.
Each scout will receive at least $30 from the troop,
with some scouts receiving more if they sold more than
$150 in popcorn. Summer Camp Payments are due May
22nd.
No scout needs to stay home from camp because of
financial reasons. There are many sources of
camperships available to scouts who want to go to
camp. If you wish to apply for a campership, the
first step is to print off this Campership
Application and fill it out. These forms are due to
me at the April 3rd meeting. These forms are also
found on the Troop 5 Website
(click on Forms)
So, if you want to go to camp – stay tuned for more
information. If you think you will need help paying
for camp, fill out the attached form and return it to
me at the April 3rd meeting.
Yours in Scouting,
Jeff Lukens
Assistant Scoutmaster
