Tuscarora Council, BSA

Thank you for choosing to participate in the exciting, fun summer resident camp opportunities for Cub Scouts and Webelos at Camp Tuscarora. Some of you may have joined us before during Cub Weekends, at Day Camp, or at Camp Tuscarora before. We can guarantee that your child will have a great outdoor summer camping experience with us! Our camp directors have been hard at work recruiting and training a top-notch, quality staff to deliver an outstanding and memorable program. Participating in our outdoor programs is a great place where you and your son or daughter will have fun, meet new people, and discover new things all at once. You and your child will have a great family experience and build memories that will last a lifetime.

This Camp Guide provides all of the information you will need (and then some) to have a good time and be prepared for your camping experience. If we can be of any assistance before camp starts, please do not hesitate to contact the Tuscarora Council Service Center at 919-734-1714.

Camp Registration and Fees

Registering for Cub Resident Camp: We are ready to get you and your Pack signed up for Cub Resident Camp 2019. To start your registration process, please contact the Council Service Center at 919.734.1714, or email Camp Director, Sarah Fernandez at [email protected] AND copy Belva Wells at [email protected].

You may also complete the Site Reservation Form on page 15 and submit it to the Tuscarora Council Service Center. The Camp Director will make any approvals to accommodate the unit for a particular session and campsite. Some campsites may be limited due to unit size and prior availability.

**Note: To ensure each individual youth gets the same attention and experience, space is limited, and reservations are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. When making your reservation please provide us with the most accurate estimate you can of the number of youth and adults you will be bringing, as well as any other health, logistics, facilities or transportation concerns regarding your campsite. **

Registration can be done as a Pack, or by provisional families that wish to be placed with a host Pack. There are two sessions of Cub Resident Camp for your unit to choose from. Packs are encouraged to start registering early. For questions about camp or assistance with the registration process please contact Sarah Fernandez at 919-734-1714 or [email protected].

To sign up for adventure sessions or other available classes, leaders will need to use our BRAND NEW online registration and payment portal through Black Pug. The site will go live on or before May 1, 2019 and log in information will be emailed to the unit leader. All adventure sessions and class choices must be selected and registered through this system prior to your unit�s arrival to camp. Camp arrival day on-site class registration and selection at check-in is not available.

Who May Attend: All registered Wolves, Bears, Webelos, and AOLs may attend Cub Scout Resident Camp. Registered leaders and parents may serve as Pack leadership at camp.

Leaders in Camp: All Packs must have at least one adult for every three Cub Scouts attending. Adults attending may be registered leaders or parents in the Pack. Every Pack that attends must be under the supervision of its own adult leadership at all times. A minimum of two-deep leadership is required at all times. Unit leaders are in charge of their pack at all times, and responsible for the discipline and organization of the pack. It is never the camp staff�s task to take over your role as leader of your unit.

General Information Medical Forms (required for ALL youth and adults): Every Scout and adult must complete an Annual Health and Medical Record prior to camp. For Cub Scout Resident Camp, Parts A, B1, and B2 will be required for all participants. Every camper must have all parts completed for their medical record. Anyone arriving at camp without the proper medical form and appropriate signatures as stated above will not be allowed to participate in camp programs.

Medical Treatments and Medication: An emergency medical technician is on duty at all times and a physician is on call 24 hours a day. Every Scout and adult must have an annual health history form completed prior to camp. All treatments are given at the health lodge except in an emergency. All injuries and illnesses, minor or severe are to be taken to the health lodge. Serious injuries or illnesses must be reported immediately to the camp director. If a scout becomes sick (cold, flu, virus, etc.), we will ask that he be sent home, to prevent others from becoming sick. The camp medical technician will collect all medications during check-in and administer them appropriately at the health lodge. Exceptions must have prior approval of the medical technician. All youth medications must be accompanied by written permission from a parent or legal guardian. All participants using inhalers and/ or epi-pens must have them on their person at all times. Youth participants must have written permission from their parent or guardian to carry an inhaler and/or epi-pen themselves; otherwise it must be carried by an adult who must accompany that youth at all times while on camp. Activity Control Form and Waiver: Every Scout must have an activity control form filled out by the Scout�s parent or guardian. This form is made available so parents or guardians can select which potentially hazardous activities their minor child will be allowed to participate in. All Scouts must wear knee and elbow protection. All Scouts are required to wear a helmet when participating in skateboarding, BMX and general bicycle use around camp. Scouts who attend without this signed form will not be allowed to participate in the activities. Buddy System: The buddy system should always be used while at Camp. Buddies can be fellow Scouts, a Scout�s parent, or the entire Pack. NO ONE should ever go anywhere alone! Den Chiefs and Siblings : If a Pack has a Den Chief or sibling in camp, a $60.00 fee will be charged. Please be aware that the fee charged is for food and insurance; this does not include craft or program supplies used during the activity sessions. Those materials are for Cub Scouts only. Please note that a Den Chief does not qualify as an adult leader to accompany Scouts to each of their activity areas. A registered Scout age 13 years or older can become a Den Chief.

Check-In:

We are continually working on ways to best expedite the arrival day check-in process to get you into your campsite and ready for camp as quickly as possible. NEW FOR 2019: We will be implementing an express check-in option that will allow units to submit medical forms prior to arrival, and the possibility to visit camp prior to your unit�s session to complete swim checks!

Express Check-in Procedures for Packs: Skip the Line & Submit all of your Pack�s paperwork early! (This is the preferred check-in option, and we encourage all units to take advantage of this method if at all possible.) No waiting, no standing in line, no shuffling through a stack of forms, no tracking down parents for missing signatures�.. Just show us your approval form and we�ll radio the gate to let them know you�re ready to proceed to your campsite! Packs that wish to take advantage of express check-in should gather all completed and signed medical forms, completed and signed activity waivers, and Pack Roster and submit them to the Council Service Center by June 1st. If dropping them off in person, please make sure you leave them with a staff member, so they can secure them appropriately for our registration team to pick them up and review them. If mailing, please use a trackable, signature-required method of postage or shipping. (We will not be responsible for lost or damaged mail.) If there are any issues with your Pack�s paperwork or any missing or incomplete items, we will notify the Pack leader well in advance of your arrival day so there will be time for any corrections and submission of missing items. Check-In at Camp: Check-in will begin on arrival day at 1:00 pm. Please do not arrive prior to this time as our staff will not be equipped or prepared to assist you until 1:00p. Per our liability policy, no one is allowed in campsites or camping areas until they have completed the check-in process and all required forms have been submitted and verified. To help expedite the check-in process, Packs are requested to send only one or two leaders to the camp office at Headquarters to check in the unit. If your Pack chooses the express check-in option, all you need to bring to check-in at camp is your approval form (issued once all forms have been verified by our express registration staff), or your missing and/or incomplete paperwork (any issues with submitted forms will be communicated to you by our express registration staff well in advance of the campout). If your Pack does not choose the early Check-In process, Cub leaders should turn in all of their Pack�s Medical forms and Waiver forms at camp check-in. (Don�t forget that Pack Rosters should have been submitted to the Council Service Center prior to the Cub Weekend). Once check-in has been completed successfully, the Pack will then be ready to proceed to the campsite, and we will radio the gate staff to alert them that check-in has been completed successfully for your unit. We will allow those units with a Pack trailer to take the trailer to the campsite upon arrival (immediately returning the towing vehicle to the parking lot), however, you must first let a gate staff member or admin staff member in Headquarters know that you have arrived. Please plan to arrive and start the check-in process as a Pack at 1:00 pm. Please do not arrive before this time. One leader will need to come to the camp office to check-in the Pack before proceeding to any other area on camp. All unpaid fees and Activity Control Waivers must be turned in at this time. Medical forms for all youth and adults should also be ready for the medical recheck. Each camper including adults must be present during medical recheck. Swim tags will be issued after completion of medical recheck where your unit will proceed to the waterfront to complete swim checks. A staff guide will be available to assist your Pack with the check-in process. There will be a meeting with the leader from each Pack at 4:15pm in Camp Headquarters.

Safety and Security: Several measures are used at Camp Tuscarora to ensure the safety and security of all campers. All the campers and guests must wear wristbands. If a wristband falls off, please come by the Camp Office in Headquarters to receive a new one. The staff members are identified by the Boy Scout uniform or staff shirt. If you see anyone suspicious in camp, please report it to the Camp Director immediately. Check-Out: Before leaving camp please take time to clean your campsite and the adjoining bathhouse to your campsite. Carts are available to take gear to the parking lot, but please remember that there are others that may need to use them. The towing vehicle may be driven to the site to pull the Pack trailer. Send one leader to the Camp Office to check-out the Pack. All Packs are required to check-out by 10:00 am. Visitors: Please make sure that all visitors sign-in at the Camp Office upon arrival and sign-out upon departure. All vehicles will remain in the parking lot. If a visitor wants to eat in the dining hall a meal ticket can be purchased at the Camp Office for $6.00 per person. We encourage family members to attend any of our campfire programs. We ask that they eat dinner prior to arrival at camp. Campfire visitors are asked to arrive after 7:00 pm. Dining Hall and Special Needs: Before the morning and evening meal, Packs line up in formation around the flag pole in front of the trading post. The officer of the day will lead the flag ceremony as appointed by the Program Director. Scouts and leaders should wear their field uniform to the flag lowering. Announcements for the entire camp will occur during assembly. Packs must assist with setting up and cleaning up the tables that they use in the dining hall for each meal. They should show up 15 minutes before the meal to make sure set up is complete. Special dietary needs should be submitted in writing to the Camp Director at least two weeks prior to attending camp. We will do our best to accommodate these needs if substitutions are noted. For specific dietary requirements, some supplements may need to be brought from home. Uniform in Camp: The official BSA summer uniform is suggested for Scouts and leaders. This uniform will be worn at flag lowering ceremonies, supper, and campfires. During the day Scout shorts and camp T-shirts are appropriate. Leader�s Meetings: A camp leaders� meeting will be held on check-in day at 5:00 pm in Camp Headquarters. Please make sure at least one leader from each unit is present. This will ensure that your pack has all necessary information for a safe and fun time at camp. Trading Post: Visit our Trading Post for cool camp merchandise, entertainment, necessities, ice cream, slushies, sodas and snacks. Each Scout should be responsible for bringing extra money if they wish to purchase something from the Trading Post. Open each day and evening during posted hours.

Swimming & Boating: Any Scout or adult participating in any swimming or boating activity must first take a swim test. Swim tests are given during check-in when your pack arrives at camp. It is recommended that youth wear aqua shoes during swimming and boating sessions. Swimming and boating are restricted to times listed on the program schedule.

Fishing: Fishing is available at our lakes for Scouts and leaders. If your Pack wants to fish it is necessary for you to bring fishing poles and bait with you. Camp Patch: An embroidered patch is awarded to each Scout and leaders who have stayed with their boys for the entire session. Patches will be included in your Check-out Packet and must be signed for by the Pack leader or unit representative at check-out. Camp Telephone: The camp office phone number is 919-934-9538 and is restricted to camp business and emergency use. In case of an emergency, callers will need to give the Pack number along with the Scout�s name. Please discourage parents from making unnecessary phone calls. Remind them the Scouts are not located near the phone. Camp Communication: The camp will utilize a messaging system using each leader�s cell phone. This message is in the form of a text message. During check-in, the camp will collect cell phone numbers of leaders who will be staying on camp. These messages will be used for general camp information as well as emergency alerts. Any leaders who �switch-out� need to add the new leader to the communication list with the Camp Director. Email and Internet: At Camp Tuscarora we have spotty, very slow Wi-Fi on a limited data plan which is restricted to use by our Administrative staff to allow them access to the online registration system. If a leader needs access for work, access passwords can be obtained by adult leaders upon request if sufficient data is remaining. We can also suggest locations in Smithfield or Goldsboro where you can go for a cup of coffee and significantly faster internet connections. Camp Mail: Mail will run daily at Camp Tuscarora. All incoming mail will be given out daily to the units, but please plan to mail any letters or items well in advance or they may not arrive until after your camper has returned home. (We are not responsible for lost or late-arriving mail.) The camp address is:

Rules and Safety Information Tents: All tents, be the camps or personal, must never have a flame of any kind inside it. There must be sign stating �NO FLAMES IN TENT� on personal tents in the campsite. All camp tents have been labeled as well. Canvas tents are provided in the campsite, but if a unit wishes to provide their own tents, it is also acceptable. Campsites/Electricity: Campsites at Camp Tuscarora are primitive sites. Though most have a shelter and running water, they do not have electricity. For this reason, those needing to operate devices such as a CPAP machine will need to make arrangements to bring a battery pack. Firearms and Liquid Fuels: Personal firearms and fireworks are strictly prohibited. Liquid fuel lanterns/stoves are restricted to adult use only. They are not allowed in tents under any circumstances. Smoking and Alcohol: The use of any tobacco product by a youth is prohibited. Adults are prohibited from smoking in any location where they can be observed by youth. A smoking area for adults only is provided directly behind the camp trading post. The use of alcoholic beverages and/or controlled substances at camp is prohibited. Trucks, Trailers, and Campers: The beds of a truck or a trailer must never be used for carrying people. Trailer type campers and R/V�s are not allowed in camp. Vehicles are not allowed to stay in the campsite over night. General Cleanliness and Sanitation: A Scout is clean. Showers and toilets are available to Scouts and leaders. These facilities must be cleaned by the Scouts and leaders while at camp. It is best to spot clean after each use to prevent a large cleaning time. Trash bags are provided and regular trash pick-ups will be made. Your Pack can get additional supplies from Headquarters or the Trading Post. Scouts Leaving Camp Property: Campers are not to leave camp during the camping period without the approval of their leader and the Camp Director or Program Director. In cases of emergency, a senior staff member will accompany the Scout to established medical treatment centers, or approved transportation as may be determined in agreement with the leader. With prior approval of parents and the leader, a Scout may leave camp with a responsible adult, but he must check out and back in with the camp office. Any Scout leaving with his parent must also be checked out at the camp office, regardless of the circumstance. In the event that one parent has court approved custody of a Scout the camp director must be informed in writing during check-in of any restrictions on leaving camp with anyone other than the court approved guardian or parent. Leaders Leaving Camp: Leaders who must leave camp for any reason must sign in and out of the Camp Office at the time of departure and return. A check-out sheet is available. Two-deep adult leadership must be maintained at all times.

Pack equipment trailers can be towed to and left in the campsite. Towing vehicles must be returned to the designated parking area immediately. No vehicles will be allowed to stay in campsites. Only clearly marked camp service vehicles are allowed to travel camp roads. Under no circumstances should passengers ride in the back of pick-up trucks or trailers!

Bicycles: Personal bicycles are allowed at camp. Helmets are required at all times with no exceptions. Riders must be courteous to walkers. Walkers always have the right of way especially on trails. Bicycles are not allowed on the main camp road from the front gate to the headquarters building nor in the parking lot where cars can be moving. To reach the first-year camper area bikers are to ride across the large field between BMX and the rappelling tower. After dark, bicycles are not to be ridden and must be walked back to campsites. It is the responsibility of all adult leaders to insure Scouts are courteous and follow these directions. Remember, the use of a bicycle on camp by an individual is a privilege which if abused will be revoked. Skateboarding: Helmets, knee, and elbow pads must be worn at all times with no exceptions. Adult supervision will be provided in compliance with safety guidelines. Levels for degree of difficulty will be assigned, and Scouts must respect and follow all directions and rules of the adult supervisor. Valuables: Each Pack should provide adequate protection for its valuables. A foot locker with lock is recommended. The Tuscarora Council is not responsible for lost or stolen items. The lost and found will be at the Camp Office. To increase your chance of recovering a lost item, make sure you label name and unit number on personal gear. Diversity Policy: The Tuscarora Council has a zero tolerance for Scouts or leaders that do not treat other Scouts and leaders by the Cub Scout Twelve Core Values, Scout Oath, and Law. Scouts must be on guard to always be aware of actions or behavior which might cause others to be hurt by words or deeds. Adult Unit Leaders are responsible for making sure that this policy is followed at all Scouting events.

Emergency Procedures To ensure proper care and protection is provided to our youth and adults, the following emergency procedures are compulsory:

· A text system will be used to the primary leader of each unit and must be kept on their person at all times for immediate communications and notifications.

· Emergency procedures will be reviewed at the first leaders meeting along with alternative instructions and options for extreme situations.

· Camp emergencies include tornado watch, tornado warning, severe weather, lost camper, lost

bather or other serious situations as deemed by the Camp Director.

12 | P a g e

· In the event of an emergency the Camp Director will issue each primary leader an

�EMERGENCY IN THE CAMP� text page, broadcast the camp emergency notice on the p/a and ring the camp emergency bell whereby all youth and adults are required to assemble in the amphitheater without exception and remain until dismissed by the Camp Director.

· Leaders will group their youth and adults and give an accurate accounting when called on.

· In the event of high winds or a tornado, all youth will stay at the bottom of the OA Building for

protection. Larger youth and adults will position themselves next to the younger children to assist and calm them.

What to Bring Pack Equipment: Den and Pack flag, lantern, and other equipment you think you might need. Personal Equipment: Each Scout and leader is responsible for his/her own personal gear. A suggested checklist follows:

Cub Resident Camp Program

Session 1: June 16-19 | Session 2: June 19-22

Program overview The program is designed for Wolf, Bear, and Webelos at Camp Tuscarora. Scouts and parents can expect a full program from 8:00 am until 9:00 pm each day. Mornings and afternoons will be filled with classes offering chances to earn Adventure awards. There are special programs each evening, such as free swim, free shoot, open boating and campfires.

Theme Each year our Cub Camping programs follow a different theme. For the summer of 2019 our theme is Hawaiian Hullabaloo. Many of the regular program activities will also be geared toward our theme.

The Staff The staff at Camp Tuscarora is second to none! It is comprised of young men and women with scouting backgrounds who commit their summer to the Scouts. You can expect a high-energy, knowledgeable group of individuals who are both well prepared, and dedicated to Camp Tuscarora, your Scouts, and a delivering a quality program.

Special Programs There are also a number of special programs taking place throughout the session, mostly in the evening hours. Brief program descriptions of special program highlights are as follows:

· Opening & Closing Campfires: The staff will entertain Scouts and adults alike with an energetic, audience-participation campfire program reflecting the theme of the summer. On your last night with us, your scouts will get the chance to share their talents with the entire Camp.

· Open Activities: Each full day will have two hours open that will enable Scouts and adults to enjoy shooting BBs, archery, BMX, hiking, swimming, boating, or fishing.

· Camp Wide S�mores: After the closing campfire, hang out with your pack and the rest of the camp and cook up some s�mores.

· FREE Training Opportunities for Adults: On Monday, June 17th - 7:00pm - 9:30pm, OR Thursday, June 20th � 7:00pm � 9:30pm, we will offer free training sessions for registered Adults who are, or plan to be Cub Scout Den Leaders, Cubmasters, or Pack Committee Members.

Rainy day program Liquid sunshine never washes fun out of the day! In the event of rain or other inclement weather, program will be provided by the staff indoors or under our many shelters throughout Camp. Some programs, like camp craft, can easily be taken inside without modification. Other program areas have special rainy-day backup activities that will keep everyone busy.
