Ongoing Notices to Parents

1. Summer Camp is coming up in July. We will be going to Camp Hahobas July 6 - 11. The boys need a class 1 physical completed and on file prior to Camp. It is also a good idea to plan with your son which merit badges or rank advancement he wants to accomplish prior to going to camp. This allows him to have a plan of action and will allow him to get more accomplished at camp. Also, it is a good idea to get some of the prerequisites done before camp. Camp Hahobas offers 48 merit badges!
This url will show you all the merit badges Camp Hahobas offers and the pre-requisites needed to complete the merit badge at camp. http://www.hahobas.org/program/mbprereq.html

2. The high adventure activity this summer is a 50 mile canoe trip on Lake Chelan. President Widing has required that all youth who attend this activitie have a minimum of the Swimming merit badge and Canoeing merit badge completed or you cannot attend. We also suggest that your boys get their first aid merit badge as well.
Boys younger than 14 should be accompanied by their father or other adult responsible for them. So dads, here is a great opportunity for you to spend a really quality week with your son or step son. Plan for it now!
