Summer Camp Payments Due May 22nd
Hey Troop 5!
Hey What?
I said Hey Troop 5!
Hey What? Is it time for the Wig-a-Low?
Nope – but it is time to get your payments in for Summer Camp!
Your payment for Summer camp is due to Jeff Lukens by May 22nd. You can bring it to this week’s Troop Meeting, next week’s meeting, or mail it to him (email him for the address)
Your payment amount is listed on the forms that were distributed in early April. If you lost this packet of information, please email Jeff at jeff@troop5middlebury.org for your payment amount.
Please make checks payable to “Troop 5″
NO SCOUT in Troop 5 should stay home from camp for financial reasons. There are many sources of campership funding available to us. If you applied for a BSA Campership, you should have received a notice from the Council. If you have not been notified please let Jeff know. No additional payments should be made until after you have received notification of your campership. At that point, talk to Jeff if additional funding is needed.
Our goal is to have all of our troop members attend summer camp with the troop. It is a week filled with fun activities and presents opportunities for growth and advancement. Talk to any of the boys who have gone in past years — they will tell you how much fun it is.
You can also see a video of what a week of camp is like here (it’s in two parts due to length):
You might recognize some of the pictures and voices in the video too! New Scouts and Parents should take a look to see what a great time camp is.
Attention parents of new scouts: Studies show that scouts who attend summer camp with their troop their first year in scouting stay in scouts longer and have a more positive overall scouting experience. Talk to me, Mr. Romano, or Mr. Curry if you have any questions about summer camp.
Jeff
