Fall Camporee 2005 General Information
EVENT
RULES
Scout Oath and Scout Laws. Because of the nature and location of this
event, there will be some very specific safety guidelines for campers such as
off limits areas and inappropriate actions.
You will be briefed on additional safety and security rules at the
Cracker barrel Friday evening. Any
Scout or Scouter not adhering to these guidelines will be asked to leave the
Camporee. UNIFORMS
Uniforms will be worn at all times. The
Boy Scouts of America is a uniformed organization. Considering the size of this
event and the number of other uniformed groups present (National Guard, Civil
Air Patrol, etc.) it is important that all Scouts are in uniform.
The Scout uniform for this event will consist of, but is not limited to,
an official BSA shirt (buttoned and tucked in) with unit numbers properly
attached. If you have any
questions, please see the Scout Handbook or BSA Insignia Guide. Scouts
not in uniform will not be allowed to take airplane rides! SAFETY/SECURITY

safety and security briefing will be given directly following the opening
Flagraising ceremony on Saturday. It
