The Troop's Own Programs
("The Other 75% of Your Time at Camp")

Need help organizing all the details for a week's summer camp at HSR?? Who couldn't use some !!

Here's a SAMPLE "Camp Manual" that has been tested and revised over the last 20 years by several Troops.

Change the names and dates and modify for your operations and you'll have a pretty good guide for your Group. Give copies to every family involved -- it will become their main source of information. And it will demonstrate 'due diligence' on your part. (Along with all the other permits and forms you'll also need -- see HSR's official website.)
