Dad’s need to sign up too
In order to provide the opportunity for our Scouts to attend Ransburg, it is essential for Dad’s to make a commitment to spend 1-2 days at camp to help supervise. This is not a difficult duty, it just requires a couple days of your time. We expect to have a large group of scouts this year, requiring that we have at least 5-6 Dads present at camp at all times throughout the week, maintaining a ratio of 1 dad to 8 scouts. We cannot attend camp without this commitment. On your son’s Merit Badge Selection Schedule, please indicate what days and overnights you can attend to help out. As you plan your calendar, please keep in mind the our greatest need is often thru the middle of the week (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday), so if you can be in camp for one or more of those dates, it is very helpful.
Medications
All prescription medications are stored at the troop’s campsite in the original container in a secure box. To facilitate the check-in process, all medications should be put in clear zip lock bag with a completed copy of the Troop 174 Medication Form inside the bag.. Do not pack medications, but rather have the scout put them in his pocket. Meds are turned in to the dad in charge of the meds first thing Sunday during the check-in process. Meds are distributed by the dad in charge of the meds at appropriate times. Inhalers, EPI pens and heart medications will be kept by the Scout or leader at the discretion of the Ransburg Health Officer. FORWARD ANY DIETARY RESTRICTIONS TO THE TROOP 174 CAMP COORDINATOR BY MONDAY, APRIL 26.
Health Forms Required to Attend Ransburg
Parts A, B and C are required for all scouts and adults planning to attend Camp Ransburg for 2010. Parts A and C were completed at the beginning of the Scout Year, so it is not necessary to fill out this form again. We will obtain a copy of that form from Troop 174 leadership.
Part B is required with Parts A and C for any event that exceeds 72 consecutive hours, a resident camp setting (such as Camp Ransburg), or when the nature of the activity is strenuous and demanding, such as service projects, work weekends, or high-adventure treks. It is to be completed and signed by a certified and licensed health-care provider—physician (MD, DO), nurse practitioner, or physician’s assistant, so make your appointment now. We cannot overemphasize this enough. Every year, parents wait too long to schedule an appointment only to find that their doctors only schedule physicals on certain days, making it difficult to submit the completed Part B by the beginning of camp. You may be able to get this examination completed more quickly at an Urgent Care Center or Med Check if it becomes necessary.
