Camping
Troop 390 schedules a campout just about every month of the year. Scouts are expected to regularly attend campouts as a sign of scout spirit and participation.
Most of our campouts are located at Boy Scout reservations and state parks in Ohio. We occasionally camp out-of-state to locations such as the Allegheny National Forrest and Laurel Caverns in Pennsylvania. High Adventure camp outs are usually held out-of-state. Check our High Adventure page for more information.
All of our campouts are programmed for advancement or high-adventure preparation. One "have fun" campout, where the scouts experience a more relaxed agenda, is scheduled once a year, usually in the Fall at Camp Manatoc.
Scouts sleep in tents for most Troop 390 campouts. We occasionally stay in cabins.
A permission slip is needed for all campouts. Permission slips are handed out at Troop meetings. You can also obtain a generic permission slip on our Forms page.
You can find gear lists for cold and warm weather campouts and summer camp on our forms page.
