Medical Forms. Every Scout and Parent attendee needs a current (within 12 months of 2012 summer camp dates) Annual Health & Medical Record form signed by their doctor. It can take a few months to get an appointment for an annual medical exam for you or your son, so go ahead and book your appointment ASAP! http://www.campresolute.org/pdf/MedicalFormResolute.pdf
We camp as a Troop and have plenty of adult supervision on hand to make sure the fun stays safe.
So sign up you and your son today. Online sign up is for numbers only and to get contact information updated – we do NOT ask for or take payment online at anytime … so no credit card is needed for sign-up. Then mark your calendars and get ready for the best Summer Camp Ever.
