As per troop handbook:
* Any person going, adult or girl scout, has to be registered AND health forms turned in!
* Girl Scout Troop 5823 only pays for the scouts & leaders needed but we are fine with families joining so long as they pay their own way & we have space
* Carpooling and/or carvanning is a privilege, not a right. We will do the best we can to accommodate everyone-- IF for any reason you need a ride, please contact Victoria-- these spots are first come first serve! If there is not an option to carpool, you must get your scouts to the event for them to participate (on your own cost).
* Because we pay for sites, food and materials, refundable deposits are forfeited for no-shows.
We are going to have a BLAST at this Fall Camp Out!
(Literally, bring a jacket! 😜 )
