Here is the latest letter for the Camp Chief, Heather Shore

Please take a moment to go through all of the attached documents. There is a site map of Apple Hill, as well as the marked site numbers for all of the groups. The site dimensions are in metres, not feet. For the LDS groups coming into camp, please plan to arrive no later than 7:45 a.m. on Saturday so that you have time to park and get settled before the opening ceremonies.

Check-in is at the camp office. You will be required to hand in the physical fitness forms for all participants in your group in a sealed envelope. This will be returned to you upon your departureon Sunday (Saturday for LDS groups). You will receive an envelope with your schedule and event bracelets (these are numbered, and everyone must wear them). If a bracelet is lost or damaged, please come to the camp office for a new one.
Don't forget.....there are NO FIRES allowed at Apple Hill. The only exception is our group campfire on Saturday night. You must have a fire extinguisher with you for your stove(s).

There will be KYBOS located all around camp. There are a few that will be roped off. Please take a moment to speak to your Scouters and youth.....the roped KYBOS are off limits. As well, we have had a number of complaints at previous camps regarding the use of the KYBOS...please treat them as you would the KYBOS at Buckingham Palace.
Apple Hill has an awesome crest that will be available to purchase at $2.00 each. They can be purchased on Sunday before you leave to go home. We will also have a very limited number of camp crests available for sale at $4.00 each. Please have exact change for the crests.

On Sunday, you must have your site inspected before you can leave camp. Once you are cleared to go, your participant forms will be returned to you, along with your groups camp crests, and a special certificate. We will have campfire ashes available at the camp office on Sundaymorning as well. We will give you special bags to put them into.
We have a special guest coming to camp, and he will be giving out a limited number of crests as well.

If you have any questions at all, I will be available until Wednesday evening next week before heading off to camp.
I look forward to seeing you all at camp!

3. Camp Site

As mentioned above, we know where our site is!
See the site map.
We are Site A - Lot 3.
Our site is 13 X 13 metres.

The accommodation plan is:

  • 3 tents for the 9 cubs
  • 2-3 tents for the adults

The tents (and other common camp gear) are provided by the 1st Manotick Scouting and the leaders.
Each cub (and parent) is required to bring their own personal gear as outlined in our packing list.



4. Camp Schedule

The camp schedule is posted in our common folder.

Key points:

  • arrive Friday between 15:00 and 19:00
  • leave Sunday after 11:00
John and I plan to drive up early on Friday and set up as much of the camp as possible.
We will have the food and gear.
