– Sleds may have wheels for use during the day, but they must be removed for the race.
– Sleds should be “decorated” to meet the theme of the event. This year’s theme is simply “Klondike” and can be interpreted as each patrol sees fit.
Rules & Regulations
1. All Scouts should be in Class-B uniform during all Saturday activities.
2. Each patrol should have a patrol flag on their sled complete with a patrol name and troop
number.
3. Each patrol must have a patrol yell.
4. While at camp we expect that everyone will follow the BSA Guide to Safe Scouting.
5. We expect that everyone will remember and follow the Scout Oath and Law.
Sled can have removable wheels and can be designed as the unit desires. For the Sled race, however, the wheels will need to be removed.
Campsite Inspections (Award will be given)
Please study up on what a Scouts BSA campsite is supposed to look like. We will have judges from each district come through and do a campsite inspection. Awards will be given out for best campsite setup.
Notes to Unit Leadership and to Campsite Inspectors:
The purpose of the campsite inspection is to help teach Scouts the value of having a clean, neat, and safe campsite. The inspection is intended to be a positive experience for Scouts and adult leaders rather than a punitive measure.
Ideal Patrol size is 4 – 8 Scouts.
