Arrival to the Island: Troop Guides Once you arrive at the island, your unit’s “Troop Guide” will meet you. This member of camp staff is your contact throughout your stay. Their goal is to ensure camp is everything you expect and more. Your troop guide will direct your unit through the check-in process. Your troop guide will direct the main adult leader to check in with the Camp and Program Directors and take the remainder of the unit to begin their med checks. The completed health forms should be readily available for the remainder of the unit to begin their med checks. The primary adult leader will need the unit roster of youth and adult attendees and evidence of current Scouting America registration and YPT completion for all adults for check- in. This roster can be found by accessing the unit’s my.scouting.org account and printing an adult membership and YPT report. The camp admin team will verify the unit roster, dietary needs, and provide schedules/materials for the week. Swim Checks & Swim Test Policy After medical checks, your unit will be directed to change into swimwear and your troop guide will take you to swim checks. Swim checks are required for any individual wishing to participate in activities in the boating and swimming areas, including the Scoutmaster Belly Flop. NOTE : Due to the colder water temperatures, we do not accept swim tests completed prior to camp. Our camp policy requires all individuals who want to participate in aquatics activities to complete their swim test at Melita Island. Camper Identification Each participant, both youth and adult, and guests will be issued a wristband during check-in. This is to be worn at all times during camp. If a wristband is lost, see the office for a replacement. Staff will be readily identifiable. If you see someone without a wristband, please send them to the office to check in and/or notify a staff member. Camp T-Shirts Camp T-shirts are included with your registration fees. Every camper (youth and adult) will receive a camp T-shirt. T-shirts will be available in adult sizes small through 4XL. Size information will be required when a unit registers online. T-shirt size must be selected by the order deadline. Late orders/sign-ups cannot guarantee the requested size. Shirts will be available for pick-up upon arrival.
