We will be driving down to Hugh Birch Scout Camp in Dayton early Saturday and camping there for the weekend. Once we arrive, we will tour the museum at Wright Patterson Air Force Base. Entry to the museum is free but there are things inside (Flight simulators, an IMAX theater, and a huge gift shop) that would require your scout to have spending money. On Sunday morning we will hike the Wright Memorial Trail before driving home.
Please eat before arriving and bring a lunch to eat once we get there. We will eat lunch at the museum before heading to camp.

Meet at church parking lot at 7am dressed in uniform.
The Scouts will return Sunday afternoon to the Maxfield Edu. Center parking lot, located across Raphael Street from the church. If you are not accompanying your Scout, please make sure that you leave a phone number where you can be reached that morning. Your Scout will most likely call when they are on the way home to give you a more exact time for pick-up. We will likely not be home until mid afternoon.
Electronics use by Scouts is not allowed during the weekend.
**Important** - The committee is reinforcing our commitment to the policy of no electronics on campouts and we need your help with support. Electronics use by Scouts is only allowed during travel to/from outings and during designated game time. Devices other than cell phones are not allowed on campouts. These will be confiscated and returned to the parents at the end of the campout. Cell phones are expected to only be used on the trip to and from camp. During camp these devices should be stowed away. Leaders will give a warning but will be taking away cell phones if they are repeatedly seen at camp. If there are circumstances that a scout would need to be on the phone during the campout please let Julie or Blake know prior to leaving.
