Welcome to Camp Tukabatchee 2008. This guide is prepared
for you so you may plan for your Scouts the most exciting summer program ever. An
asterisk (*) at the beginning of a paragraph indicates a change for 2008.
*The camper fee is $195.00 if paid by April 18, 2008. A
late fee of $15.00 will be required if fees are paid after this date. A late
fee is not required for “bridging Webelos” who bridge after April 18, 2008 or for youth joining Scouting after
April 18, 2008.
Planning and preparation are critical to your having a successful camp experience. Like you, the summer camp team needs significant lead-time to prepare for you the best possible camp for
your Scouts. To facilitate planning, a non-refundable fee payment must be received
at the Council Service Center
not later than February 1, 2008 to hold a troop’s campsite and week reservation.
The fee payment required is $30.00 per Scout (this fee qualifies the Scout for the 2008 Early Bird incentive to be
awarded at summer camp). Do not register Scouts with John Doe as a filler name.
Fees are not transferable to another Scout. At
least five Scouts @ $30.00 ($150.00) must be registered to reserve campsite. After
that date, all campsites may be open. Campsites requested with less than 20 occupants
may be subject to additional
campers (troops) being placed in the site. Reservations
for camp will be accepted until all spaces are full. The summer camp team reserves
the right to combine units (more than one unit in a campsite should the unit have fewer than 20 Scouts pre-registered).
We have also included the dates for the Second Chance Weekend. During
the development of our Vision 2008 Strategic Plan for the Council we were requested to add a weekend activity where Scouts
could complete requirements for merit badges that are beyond the capability of the troop to finish.
All merit badge requests must be in the Council
Service Center not later than
March 3, 2008.
Camp weeks for 2008 are:
Week 1 -- June 8-14
Week 2 -- June 15-21
Week 3 -- June 22-28
Week 4 –July 6-12
Second Chance Weekend - August 8-10
