Local Membership Requirements for Adults Spending the Night at an Old North State Long Term Camp (Summer Camp or Winter Camp)
  • In December 2019, the Old North State Council Executive Board took action to increase the safety of Scouts camping at Cherokee Scout Reservation
  • Effectively immediately, any adult who spends at least one night while accompanying a Scouting unit to a long-term camp activity, sponsored by the Old North State Council or any of its agents, must be a registered member of the Boy Scouts of America with a completed criminal background check and completed mandatory Youth Protection Training.
  • This local policy supersedes the national policy that requires adults who are staying in camp for more than 72 hours be registered members of the Boy Scouts of America with a completed criminal background check and completed mandatory Youth Protection Training
  • Take action now to register the adults who plan to attend summer camp with your unit as members of the Boy Scouts of America.
  • You may register adults who are attending summer camp only as Scouter Reserve. This position requires a background check and current Youth Protection, but does not require Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills and does not impact your unit’s adult leader training rating.
 
BSA Releases New Annual Health & Medical Record
  • For Summer 2020, the BSA provided an extension for medical form expiration dates because COVID-19 inhibited many Scouts and adults from obtaining a physical.
  • The BSA has already stated, that it WILL NOT provide an extension on medical form expiration dates for Summer 2021.
  • Everyone will be expected to have a current medical from to participate in summer camp.
  • We will work to provide opportunities for Scouts to obtain a physical prior to summer camp.
  • The BSA recently updated the health form
  • Starting in 2021 only the health form labeled 2019 printing can be used
  • Remember, all people attending summer camp must have a current health form at the health lodge
 
 
​If we can support you further in your preparations for summer camp, please do not hesitate to contact us.
 
Best,
