2017 Camp Guide

GeneralInformation

The Merit Badges listed in this Pamphlet are offered either to be completed wholly or partially in camp. We have tried to identify the items which need to be done as prerequisites or done outside of camp. There

are some merit badges that have been combined with other activities or merit badges.

Other activities are intended to add to the camp program experience. Camping is not just a merit badge achievement school, but also learning about camping skills, associating with other Scouts and leaders, liv-ing the principles of Boy Scouts of America and the Boy Scout Oath and Law, and finally, implementing

Lord Baden Powell’s ideal of learning through outdoor fun.

Scouts may earn four to five merit badges by attending camp, or may earn one or none dependent on his own accomplishments which may not be the expectation of the Scout or his parents. Often the Scout is independent of his parents for the first time during a week-long time frame. The Scout must decide to earn the merit badges he has enrolled in, by attending classes, satisfactorily completing the requirements of the merit badge and receiving the approval of the merit badge counselor. The most misunderstood aspect of merit badge instruction is that the merit badge is earned, not given. Attendance is not the requirement. The requirements are the things that the Scout must do, demonstrate, get tested or accomplish as required in

the merit badge pamphlet.

For the Baden Powell Program Overnight Camp: Thursday evening of camp and early Friday morning.

Equipment needed: Each Baden Powell Scout needs to bring a sleeping bag, ground cloth, flash-light, canteen, tent and some type of backpack to haul their gear. The campout includes a hike to

and from the camping site with gear. We will furnish food, eating utensils, water, etc.

At check out, records of advancement, merit badges completed or partially completed, and other infor-mation regarding each Scout and Leader accomplishments during the week, will be handed to the Unit Leader in a packet. This is an opportunity for the Scouts and Leaders to identify any errors or omissions that have occurred in the camp’s recordkeeping. While a record will be retained by the camp and after camp for a limited time, the correction or clarifying of the records becomes less apparent the further we

get from the specific camp session.

Online Registration The Online Merit Badge registration system will be available early March. The online system will allow troop leaders to select merit badge classes, see costs associated with each class, make adjustments up to one week before camp starts, and make final camp payments online. It is important to register as soon as possible as some camp programs and merit badge classes have a maximum number of participants allowed. Also, some programs and merit badges have costs to cover special supplies. When a Scout is signed up for an activity with a cost, the cost will be added to the unit’s invoice for camp. These supplies will be given upon check-in or in some cases in the class.

Camp Leadership BSA Policy requires at least two adult leaders, one of whom must be 21 years or older, for all trips and outings. Each troop must be under the leadership of an adult (over 21 years of age), preferably the registered Scoutmaster.

If the Scoutmaster is unable to attend full time, the troop committee should name a Campmaster. He assigns and coordinates responsibilities of all adult leadership in his troop.

All additional adult leaders staying with the troop in Camp Jayhawk are considered Assistant Scoutmasters. It is the responsibility of the entire troop leadership, both youth and adult to maintain discipline in troop at all times while at Camp Jayhawk. At Camp Jayhawk, only activities that meet the standards of the twelve points of the Scout Law are permitted. Your cooperation and understanding in helping us maintain high standards of moral and personal behavior is appreciated. The Camp Director or designee reserves the right to remove individuals who are not in compliance with BSA and Falley Scout Reservation policies.

Each adult leader brings a unique set of life skills to camp. Some camp programs and merit badge classes may be able to use those skills to enhance the educational experience in these areas. Leaders are encouraged to sign up to attend camp programs where they feel they can best offer support to the staff member in charge of the area. In addition, adults, who help in the Baden Powell area may complete the Introduction to Outdoor Leadership Skills training course.

Health and Medical Record

Scouts and leaders staying at Camp Jayhawk must have a fully completed BSA Annual Health and Medical Record (Available online). Scouts and leaders without a current physical examination cannot be permitted to remain in Camp Jayhawk, in compliance with national standards of the BSA. No health form, no overnight stay at Camp Jayhawk, no exceptions! Physical examinations are not provided at Camp Jayhawk. It is recommended that all campers receive a tetanus shot before camping.

A copy of your Scouts’ medical forms must be kept in the Health Lodge so we urge Troops to bring 2 copies with them (leave the original at home) and one copy will be turned in to the Health Officer upon check-in.

We hope this information will answer all your pre-camp questions, but if it does not, feel free to contact us at:

Your Stay at

Camp

The entire staff is committed to a smooth arrival at camp and an easy transition to your camp site. Plan to arrive to Camp Jayhawk on Sunday at 1:00 pm when the gates open. If you plan to arrive after 1: 00 pm please call the Camp’s Office at 785-876-2465. We will do our best to accommodate your desired time of arrival.

Your campsite hosts will meet your troop at or near the parking lot when you arrive.

1. Upon arrival, have your troop’s Campmaster and Senior Patrol Leader proceed to the Welcome Center for check-in. The Campmaster should take with him the Health Forms for the entire Troop and any forms or registration information that need to be turned in to the office.

2. The Campmaster will verify with the office staff that all the registration information is correct and that all fees have been paid. The Campmaster will also turn in Early Release Forms, Payment for Visitors' Meals and any other administrative information.

3. Remember that Scouts cannot leave camp early without an early release form and the parent picking them up showing proper identification. The Campmaster will receive identification wrist bands for each Scout and adult. This is an important tool to help recognize unauthorized people on camp and ensure the safety of each camper on FSR. These wristbands will be worn at all times. This wristband will also serve as your meal ticket during the week.

4. The Campmaster will turn in the Health Forms to the Camp Health Officer. The Health Officer may ask to talk to select Scouts individually from the troop that have certain special conditions or that are participating in physically demanding activities such as C.O.P.E. or High Adventure so that he can be aware of special physical needs or conditions in the event of an emergency.

5. A list of all prescription medications for each person must also be given to the Health Officer. The Campmaster will receive a lock box for those medicines. Refrigeration is available in the health lodge for those medications that are required to be temperature controlled. Prescriptions will come to Camp Jayhawk in their original containers. Scoutmasters are responsible for issuing easily dispensed medicines.

6. The Campmaster and Senior Patrol Leader will proceed to the Trading Post to pick up any pre-ordered camp T-shirts and materials for merit badges. These merit badge materials are paid for as part of the camp fees in the office. Please inventory these merit badge supplies upon arrival at your campsite. If there are any issues, please contact the Camp Director so exchanges can be made.

Camp Check In

2017 CAMP JAYHAWK

7. The troop will regroup and travel down to the swim dock to do swim checks. It is recommended that Scouts arrive in swim trunks so that they do not need to change twice in the swimming area. Make sure Scouts bring a towel. Swim checks are required for anyone wanting to do an activity requiring a Swimmer or Beginner status.

8. During swim checks, one or more leaders will be allowed to drive one vehicle at a time on camp to transport your troop’s gear to its campsite. (These leaders can take their swim checks after they unload the gear in the campsite or at another time scheduled with the Aquatics Director.) One vehicle will be allowed to go to the campsite at a time and must have a vehicle pass signed by the Camp Director. Your vehicle will be admitted on Falley Scout Reservation by a member of the camp staff or a Camp Master and should be driven to your campsite, unloaded, and returned to the parking lot as soon as possible. The leaders can make several trips in different vehicles.

9. Troops are allowed to leave a trailer at the entrance of their campsite that will remain the duration of the week until check-out on Saturday. No vehicles are to remain in the campsite. No one under 18 years of age is to ride in a vehicle on camp property and no riders are allowed in beds of pickups.

10. After swim checks the troop will move to Bell Lodge to pick up cleaning supplies and toilet paper for their latrine, sleeping pads for adult leaders, and a dining fly if requested.

11. The troop will then proceed to their campsite, and with the help of their Campsite Host, they will set up camp.

12. The troop should report to Flag Ceremony at 5:50 P.M. in field uniform. Also remember to send waiters to the Dining Hall 15 minutes before dinner. There should be 2 waiters for every table that the troop occupies in the dining hall (or approximately 2 Scouts for every 9 members of the troop).

NOTE: Troop pictures will be taken after dinner Sunday Evening.

Parents are encouraged to write to their Scout while at camp. U.S. Mail will be placed in the troops’ mailboxes located in the camp office, by 2:30 p.m. each day. If parents wish to contact their child by phone, it is best to call an adult leader from the troop who has a cell phone. Calls to and from the camp office should generally be for camp business only. Outgoing mail is picked up from the camp office by 11:30 a.m. each morning.

Supplies at Camp

Camp Contact Information

2017 CAMP JAYHAWK

Each campsite is divided into conservation areas. Please see to it that the unit only camps in the area that is marked for camping. Each campsite is provided with wall tents designed to house two Scouts or leaders, a small floorboard for the middle of the tent, and a metal cot for each person. Troop campsites have washstands and latrine facilities. Showers for all campers are available at the west side shower or the central shower. Troops will be assigned to clean these showers at the daily leader meetings. Troops may bring private tents. Tents must meet the BSA standards of 30 sq. feet per camper and must post “No flame in tents” signs.

All Scouts and Scouters registered in the Jayhawk Area Council are covered by a year-round accident insurance policy as a part of the council service to our membership. All accidents and illnesses must be reported to the Health Lodge and recorded in the Health Log Book in order for the coverage to be in effect. Please note that the insurance provided by the council is a secondary policy; THE FAMILY’S INSURANCE IS BILLED FIRST, with BSA insurance providing up to the first $300 of coverage.

Units camping at FSR from other councils need to bring a copy of their current Certificate of Insurance that provides youth and adult coverage while at camp.

All accidents and illnesses must be reported to the Health Lodge and recorded in the Health Log Book in order for the insurance coverage to be in effect.

Sick call is immediately following breakfast each morning. Non life-threatening injuries can be seen at the discretion of the Camp Master.

Emergency procedures will be carefully reviewed upon your arrival at camp. Copies of Camp Jayhawk Emergency Action Plan are posted in each program, activity, and administrative area.

A warning system will be in place for heat advisories. At high heat and humidity levels, program and activities that require a high degree of physical activity may be restricted and sales of pop/slushies may be temporarily discontinued. Heat warning information will be reviewed daily at leader and SPL meetings.

Insurance

Accidents and Illness

Emergency Procedures and Heat Warnings

Red Cedar campsite was developed for Scouts who have a physical disability. It will accommodate a limited number of Scouts. Prior arrangements must be made with the Camp Director to ensure the needs of disabled Scouts and leaders can be met. Falley Scout Reservation will make every effort to accommodate those individuals with physical disabilities.

Facilities for Scouts with Physical Disabilities

Firearms, Weapons, Drugs, and Alcohol

Personal firearms, fireworks, ammunition, and bow-hunting equipment are strictly prohibited on Falley Scout Reservation. Camp Jayhawk provides all equipment for various field sports activities. Sheathed knives and other weapons are not allowed at Falley Scout Reservation.

Falley Scout Reservation is a non-smoking facility, except in a designated area.

All Scouts will follow the buddy system by moving in at least groups of two in camp. At no time should a buddy leave a Scout alone in any Merit Badge venue or in the camp site. If, while moving around camp, Scouts sees a visitor without visitor identification, he and his buddy are to report this immediately to the nearest adult leader or camp staff member.

Campers may leave only with a written release (Planned Early Departure Form) from a parent or guardian, on which the name of the individual transporting the camper must be specified. This person will need to present proper identification before leaving with a Scout. Scouts will not be released to an individual if they are not specified by name on the early release form or they do not have proper identification. Planned Early Departure Forms must be turned in during the check-in process.

Visitors are welcome especially during Family Night on Friday Evening. Visitors are required to sign in at the camp office before entering any part of Falley Scout Reservation and receive a visitor identification lanyard. Family Night is an opportunity to celebrate the Scouts' success at camp. Families are invited to join in the activities starting at 5:00 p.m. Many units make this a gala troop/family event by having picnics near the Parade Grounds or at the campsite or by eating as a group in the dining hall. Flag ceremony on Friday will be held at 5:50 p.m. and dinner will be served from 6:00 through 7:00 p.m.

If visitors choose to eat the meal provided by Camp Jayhawk, meal tickets for Friday’s dinner may be purchased in the camp office or during online registration for $7.00 each. If you will be having guests come for dinner on Friday evening in the dining hall, you should register and/or pay for them at check-in. Guest meals can also be paid for online with Troop registration. All visitors that will be eating guest meals will be given a wristband as a meal ticket.

Due to the number of visitors and guests on Friday evening, NO vehicle will be allowed beyond the gates after 4:00 p.m. except for camp support vehicles.

Troops are only allowed to have vehicles inside camp during hours specified for check-in and check-out with a permit. No other vehicles will be allowed past the gates. Vehicle permits will be available in the office as necessary at discretion of the Camp Director or Ranger.

Leaving Camp Early

Visitors at Camp

The Falley Scout Reservation Trading Post is stocked with merit badge items, souvenirs, snacks, T-shirts, camping gear, hats and drinks.

Some merit badges require special items to complete that merit badge. If you have pre-registered and prepaid for that class, these kits will be ready for your troop during check-in. However, if additional kits must be purchased, please take this into consideration when sending spending money with your Scout to camp.

Trading Post Hours* (Monday – Friday)

8:30 - 12:15 p.m.

1:30 - 5:30 p.m.

7:00 - 9:00 p.m.

*Note: The Trading Post will be closed during campfire programs. The Trading Post reserves the right to close its pop and snack sales if camp litter or heat becomes a problem.

On Tuesday night, we invite all troops to the area immediately in front of the dining hall for a Campwide Cook-off competition. This competition accomplishes two things. It allows all the troops to come together and rekindle old friendships and to see who can come up with the best cobbler and dish as chosen by a panel of camp experts.

Camp Jayhawk will provide and cake mix and fruit filling for your cobbler. Please remember to bring with you all your “secret ingredients” from home.

Trading Post

Campwide Unit Cook Off Competition

Prior to the morning and evening meals, the entire camp assembles on the Parade Ground for the raising and lowering of the flag. It is the tradition of Camp Jayhawk for the Scouts and leaders to be in full uniform (activity uniform for the morning flag ceremony and field uniform for the evening flag ceremony) as we pay respect to our country’s flag. Troops may volunteer for Flag Ceremony duty by signing up in the camp office.

Flag Ceremony

Scouts will have an opportunity to attend an all-faith retreat on Sunday evening at the All Faiths Chapel. There is also an all-faith worship service (Vespers) on Wednesday evening. Any religious groups are welcome to hold their own services. Please coordinate the use of chapel facilities with the Camp Director. Daily reflections are also encouraged in each unit’s individual campsite.

Religious Services

What to Bring to

Camp

The Boy Scout uniform builds individual and unit pride. The Scoutmaster’s attitude toward wearing the Boy Scout uniform will be reflect-ed in the dress of his troop. Scouts should wear their uniform to and from camp with pride! Scouts and Scouters who have their Class “A” uniform shall wear it to camp-wide flag ceremonies, as well as campfires and religious services. Those who do not own a complete uni-

form should wear their Class “B” uniform.

Every troop at camp should take a few minutes to determine if it has everything necessary for a quality program. Remember that there is no electricity in your campsite. The following is only a suggested list of items to take to camp. Consult the Scoutmaster’s Handbook for a

more detailed list.

Equipment and Supplies Everyone Should Bring – No Glass Containers

Spending Money – Souvenirs, snacks, mer it badge supplies and craft kits are available at the Osage River Trading Com-pany. Troops may wish to operate a “bank” to hold money for Scouts while at camp. Only small bills 1s, 5s & 10s should be

brought to camp. The Trading Post cannot easily make change for larger bills.

All personal items and spending money should be kept in a secure camp box while at camp. Clothing should be clearly marked

with your full name and troop number. The Heart of America Council is not responsible for securing or for the loss of personal

items. It is your responsibility to keep track of all personal valuables while at camp.
