Pack 2 Camp Rules & Simple Etiquette
Pack 2 Camp Rules & Simple Etiquette
• Safety first: Closed-toe shoes only; use the buddy system; leaders must always know where youth are headed.
• Alcohol, drugs, and firearms: Scouting activities are alcohol, marijuana, illegal drug, and personal firearm free. No fireworks. If you smoke/vape, please do so away from youth and out of camp view.
• Electronics: Keep devices put away during program. (OK in the car during travel.)
• Knives: Pocketknife use is by leader approval, in designated areas, and age-appropriate (see Bear Whittling adventure). Unsafe use ends the activity.
• Respect others’ space: Don’t cut through other campsites; keep noise down at quiet hours; leave shared areas tidy for the next group.
• Leave No Trace: Pack it in, pack it out; protect plants and wildlife; stick to trails.
