Summer Camp Services

Summer Camp Basic Services

Chapel Services

There will be inter-denominational vesper services at various times throughout camp.  All Scouts and leaders are encouraged, but not required, to attend.  In addition, the chapel is available for special pack or troop services.

Lost and Found

The "Lost and Found" box is located at the Camp Office.  After the camping season concludes, all items left in the box will be moved to the Council Service Center in Columbus.  They will be available there for pickup until September 1st, after which time they will be donated to charity.

Mail

Mail is picked-up and delivered each day. Outgoing mail should be placed in the camp mailbox.  Incoming mail will be distributed to your unit by a staff member, or can be picked up in the camp office.  Mail received after a unit has left camp will be returned to sender, so be sure that there is a return address.  Mail should be addressed as follows:

Quartermaster

Equipment of many types is available for check out from the Quartermaster.  Persons receiving equipment must sign for it. Unless otherwise instructed, the equipment must be returned as soon as possible so that others have the opportunity to use it. The user is financially responsible for any equipment lost or damaged. The Quartermaster is open before or after each meal or by appointment; check the schedule in each camp for exact times.

Showers and Restrooms

Warm water showers and toilets are located in each camp.  Separate facilities are provided for men, women and girls, and boys. Remember -- a soapy shower each day will make your stay (and everyone else's) much more pleasant.  Please have your boys bathe daily.

Restroom/latrine facilities are also located in camping sites, program areas, dining halls, and other central camp facilities.

Mid-Day Break

Camp is an exhilarating and tiring experience for everyone. A rest period is observed each day from after lunch to 2:00 p.m.  We ask that Scouts remain in their campsite or cabin with a minimum level of noise and activity during this time.  This is an excellent time to work on quiet, restful projects or just write a letter to send home.

Incoming emergency phone messages will be delivered as soon as possible.  All other messages will be delivered at the next meal.

Scouts should not use the phones unless absolutely necessary and, then, should be accompanied by an adult leader.  Outgoing calls must be made collect or with a calling / credit card.  Calls may not be charged to camp phones.

Trading Post

The camp Trading Post provides a wide assortment of souvenir, program and comfort items for sale.  Handicraft Kits, supplies, patches, T-shirts, hats, merit badge pamphlets, candy, soft drinks, ice cream, sundries, and many other items are available.  Items not available at the Trading Post can usually be obtained upon request.  $25 - $50 should be sufficient to meet the needs of most boys, depending on the program they are attending and the projects they wish to complete.  The Trading Post is open most mornings, afternoons, and evenings for your convenience.  A schedule is posted on the Trading Post door.

Ranger Staff

We use a “Work Order” system to track and schedule the work of the Ranger Staff.

If you find something that needs repair in your campsite, please notify your assigned staff member or write a "Work Order" for the Ranger Staff. Work Order forms are located in dining halls and camp offices, and each camp has a designated location to collect work order requests. Our Ranger Staffs pride themselves on meeting your needs in a timely fashion.
