Electronics Reminder

Posted on Apr 4 2012 - 10:07pm

Scouts should not bring Electronics (Cell Phones, MP3 players, Gameboys, etc.) to troop meetings or outings.  If a scout needs to contact his parents, he should speak to an adult leader on the outing.  The adult leaders need to be aware of any issues that come up on the outings, and we do not want to cause any unnecessary worries for parents.  All of the adult leaders carry cell phones and if there is an emergency the adults will contact you.  Remember, we camp in areas that typically have little or no cell phone coverage.
