Moose Hill Campout - What to Expect

The program begins at 7pm on Saturday and ends at 9am on Sunday.  Dinner will not be provided so please eat before you arrive.  We will provide snacks and drinks later in the evening as well as breakfast (and coffee!).   

Cost: If you haven’t paid yet, please bring a check to the camp out.  Its $30 per child (including siblings) and $20 per adult payable to Medfield Pack 113.

Wear: This is a Class B uniform event (the blue Pack 113 t-shirt). If you don’t have a Class B t-shirt, Duncan has extras and will bring on Saturday.

Sleep: You have the option of sleeping inside the Moose Hill lodge or in a tent.  If you plan to use a tent, you can arrive as early as 6pm to set up.  If you are planning to sleep in the building you can arrive closer to 7pm.  You can use air mattresses in the building if you wish….and in the tents if you can fit them in!

The weather forecast looks good for Saturday evening.  With this week’s rain I would expect the trails to be a little muddy so please dress yourself and your scout appropriately.  I would bring a jacket as well as the temperature is likely to go down into the 50’s at night.  Don’t forget the bug spray!
