Lake Roosevelt Info

Permission Slip

Summer Camp 2008 will once again be held by the Leaders and Dads of Troop 212 at Lake Roosevelt in Eastern Washington.

This is a great outing for scouts and dads alike but requires a high level of parental support to make a reality. The troop needs approximately 20 to 25 adult males to commit to and attend camp for the week, help with teaching and assist with supervising. Troop leaders and dads will teach the Trail to First Class and Merit Badges classes like a council sponsored camp but with a structured, flexible program in a much less crowded atmosphere.

In the past we have taught the following Merit badges:
Art, fingerprinting, leather work, wood carving, swimming, lifesaving, fishing, rowing, sailing, canoeing, cit. in the community, forestry, soil and water conservation, fish and wildlife, electricity, electronics, emergency prep, wilderness survival, first aid and orienteering among others. Some scouts have also completed the mile swim and BSA Snorkel.
We need you to sign up and commit to learning and teaching a class or two at camp. You will be asked to teach one class in the morning and one in the afternoon. If you have a specific talent, we could possibly incorporate that into camp.

Please see Sam Shumaker (265-2808) or Cliff Uehlin (265-8345) with questions or to sign up.

Because we need to pay for the houseboat and other expenses, we need to start collecting camp payments soon. We will use the following payment schedule. You can pay in full at any time.

- February 26th $45.00
- March 25th $45.00
- April 29th $45.00
- May 27th $50.00


-Paper Box Information-

Things to remember when doing the Paper Box:

  1. Mr. Brad Ray is the person to call when the recycle bin is full.
  2. The troop does not have the trailer anymore to put the excess garbage in. There is a garbage bin for Covenant Church, and the troop can put any garbage in the bin if they need to dispose of whatever is left at the QFC shed other than the newsprint and sale circular papers.

Please take the time to view the paper box information page for procedures on the paper box. This can save you time and add more money to the troop if it is done right. Thank you!
