The last date to turn in registration forms for summer camp at Owasippe (July 4-10) will be Thursday, May 20. So far, we have 28 boys who have indicated that they will be attending summer camp. Based on those numbers we will be working on getting a bus to transport our scouts. Our earlier Feedblitz did not include a registration form. You can download it here:
Owasippe Registration Form

The form should be accompanied by a check for $265 made out to Troop 24. Additional fees may be required, depending on which activities your scout(s) sign up for. Those payments can be made later, and more information will be forthcoming. Forms with checks attached can be turned in at the Troop meetings, or dropped off to Nancy Hopkins. (Slide it through the mailbox that goes into the house.)

All scouts attending summer camp must submit a medical form, which must be signed by a doctor. Also required is a copy of the parent(s)’ insurance card, both front and back. BSA Medical Forms are good for 12 months, so most of those turned in for camp last year will expire before this year’s camp begins. Please make your appointment for a physical now! The Chicago Council, which sponsors Owasippe, uses a modified version of the national BSA form. Please do NOT print a medical form from the Des Plaines Valley Council or the national BSA websites. You MUST use this form:

A separate waiver is required for horseback riding. If you’re not sure whether your scout will participate in horseback riding, please just fill it out and turn it in to be safe.
