Camping Next Year
To Cost Each Unit
Only Food Expense
Troops, However, Must Furnish Own Leadership
Under New Plan Adopted By Executive Board;
Eagle Board Of Review Meets Wednesday

The camp committee Of Mattatucl
council, Boy Scouts Of America, met
last evening and decided on recon-
mendations for the summer camping
season which were adopted by the
executive board Of the council.
Camping viii be free TO troops GO
Ing to camp with their own leader
ship, the only cost to such troops
will be the food which they con-
sumo. The menus which the troops
will use must be submitted In adj
vance and approved by the camp d.
rector. The council will continue TO
furnish tentage, cots, mess fly,
kitchen ny and field ranges to the
troops.
Scout Executive David Babson be-
lieves that troops going TO camp with
their own leadership should be able
TO camp OF @ maximum cost OF $3.50
per scout per week.
For those troops not able TO come
TO camp with their own leadership,
the camp committee Is making II
possible, II they come as organized
patrols with o patrol leader, TO at
tend at the very small charge Of soc
per scout per week as an overhead
fee plus food costs. These patrols
will be camped by provisional troops
with O provisional scoutmaster.
Provisional Patrols
Scouts who attend camp as indi-
viduals will be assigned TO provi-
sional patrols and provisional troops
and the charge for them will be $500
per scout per week as an overhead
fee plus food costs.
To sum up, this means that camp
ing costs will be approximately $3.50
for troops with their own leadership,
$500 for scouts coming as organized
patrols, and $3.50 for scouts who
come as individuals.
Plans were also made OF the camp
committee meeting for the addition
Of q much larger staff so that more

leaders.
A new road Is being constructed
into camp and will be completed
shortly. and other improvements ore
being made. The council has recent-
ly been the recipient OF some very
GENEROUS gifts for camp purposes
which will enable Us TO increase the
facilities at camp. II Is the inten-
ton, however, OF the camp commit.
