Troop 1 Katonah, New York

Hello Campers! As we look forward to another excellent week at Camp Buckskin , please make sure to do, and/ or note the following: -Get your medical forms filled out by your doctor, especially the immunization part. For those who went last year, I believe the form is good for 3 years, if you still have it. -Parents: please read the parents guide given to all Scouts in the Spring. Very, very IMPORTANT. If it is misplaced, it can be printed from the Westchester Putnam Council website: www.wpcbsa.org . -Bob Suda Sr., Chris Kristensen, and Tim Baron will be attending for the week and driving all 9 scouts up and back from camp. We will leave at 8:30am from KES on Sunday August 10th. -Please look at the requirements for the merit badges you have chosen. Some require advance work. Be prepared to work on your merit badges while at camp! Lastly, if you have any questions at all, please call Chris Kristensen at (914)232-5404. Have a great Summer! --Chris Kristensen
