How Campsite Selection Works
- Campsite assignments are based on registration order—first come, first served.
- You’ll choose your site number during registration, but not the lettered area (a, b, c, etc.)
- Each site can be split into multiple patrol areas, so be prepared to share water spigots, pavilions, or lean-tos with nearby patrols
- If you’re bringing multiple patrols, register together and note that you’d like adjacent areas (e.g., Site 3A & 3B)
- If your patrol has any medical considerations, please be sure to list those in the registration comment section.
- Some sites have access to power. See map.
Campsite Rules and Expectations
- No vehicles in campsites without a permit. Unload your gear, then move vehicles to a designated parking area.
- One trailer per patrol is allowed; the tow vehicle must be parked elsewhere.
- Set-up starts at 3:00 PM Friday.
- Follow Leave No Trace principles. The site should look better when you leave than when you arrived.
Campsite Judging & Evaluation
Every patrol’s site will be evaluated Saturday afternoon by staff. While it’s not a competition against others, evaluations contribute to your Honor Patrol score.
Here’s what the staff will be looking for:
- Proper tent setup with ground cloths
- Neat and safe cooking area with proper food and fuel storage
- Trash and waste managed appropriately
- First aid kit visible and stocked
- Fire safety measures in place (extinguishers, buckets, etc.)
- Displayed patrol flag and American flag
- Bonus points (figuratively) for camp gadgets, site gateways, or creative touches
Helpful Tips from the Trail
- Split duties early. Assign setup roles before you arrive to speed things up.
- Use a duty roster. It shows the judges you’re organized—and keeps your patrol running smoothly.
- Consider pioneering projects. Not required, but they showcase your skills and make your site more comfortable.
- Keep it dry and high. Rain happens. Store gear in bins, elevate food, and keep sleeping areas off low ground.
- During extreme cold, storing liquids in a cooler helps prevent freezing.
Any additional questions may be asked during check-in or by contacting the Scoutmaster or SPL.
