Scout Outdoor Essentials (http://boyslife.org/outdoors/outdoorarticles/6976/scout-outdoor-essentials-checklist/)

We are designing this course to be as safe as possible and we all have a duty to do our part to keep each other safe.

-We will use social distancing and masking in accordance to state and county guidance. Please bring a supply of clean face masks with you to camp.

-While we will try to have participants distanced as much as possible, there will be some group work and hands on instruction.

-Handwashing stations will be available to you at all times, please use them frequently.

–

-We will screen you for symptoms when you arrive and you will be asked to leave if you are symptomatic. We ask that anyone feeling sick does not attend the training and contacts our office.
