SUGGESTED CHECKLIST FOR OVERNIGHT CAMPING (essentials in Red) The scribe should make the final roster and turn it in to the Scoutmaster or adult leader responsible for the campout. The campouts are usually announced at least two meetings prior with each patrol leader responsible for sign up sheets and meal planning for his patrol. However, sufficient adult supervision and transportation are needed for every campout. It is not imperative that the parents attend each campout. The PLC plans and organizes the campout activities with assistance from the adult leaders. Special activities such as canoeing, water skiing, wilderness survival, cooking, etc. It is extremely important that the scouts attend these campouts as the basic camping skills and advancement requirements, such as cooking, compass skills, fire building, nature, camp set-up, first aid, hiking, and knot tying, are all done at the campouts. Each year in August, the PLC with the assistance of the adult leaders, plan the troop campouts for the whole year. Additionally, troop campouts for specific groups within the troop may also be scheduled. Boy Scouting is primarily an outdoor program and Troop 330 schedules campouts nearly every month during the school year, summer camp each summer, and a high adventure camp every summer for older scouts.
