Brian W's Master Camping/Outing Guide
Parents, please do not
send or allow your child to bring a bag of sugar filled snacks to camp.
Scouts are responsible for planning their meals according to the nutrition
guidelines in the scout manual. Sending snacks full of sugar defeats the
purpose of scout meal planning. It also makes the scouts lazy, grumpy or
hyper leading to a disinterest in participating in camp activities. In
addition, having snacks in the tents entices ants and animals to invade the
tents.
We provide healthy and
nutritious snacks at the camp. We also keep it properly stored and out of
the tents. Your scout will NOT go hungry if they eat the meals and snacks
provided at the camp.
Thank you for your
cooperation.
