This is the Troop’s annual week at summer camp!

The camp borders the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area and is right on the Appalachian Trail. All of the facilities are inspected and certified by the BSA and the State of New Jersey.

Many COVID precautions will be taken and the camp is working to make every aspect as safe as possible. A COVID check in procedure is being finalized by the Council and Camp Director which will be communicated to the Troop as soon as it is received.

Medical

BSA Medical forms, parts A, B and C, as well as the Covid and bug spray/sunscreen waivers are due to Sara Donohue. Contact her at medicalst97@gmail.com.  Medications should be in the original, labeled containers. See the NOBE medicine form that should be with the medication your scout is bringing to camp.

Assistant Scoutmasters who are interested in spending all or part of the week at camp should contact Mr. Olson. The number of adults at camp is capped by NoBeBosCo and depends on the number of Scouts at camp for the week.
