 Quick Request: If you would please text the Cubmaster, Drew (404-797-2343), when you leave Atlanta to come up to the campgrounds that will help out a lot so he knows when to roughly expect people. Please include your name, scout's name, and den in the text (not everyone in the pack is in his phone book) :).Good news! The weather is expected to be perfect for fall camping this weekend. A high in the low 70s and a low in the mid 40s (which is still chilly, so have warm things for night time). Requested thing to bring: ● If each family would please bring a pack of firewood it would be appreciated (should be available now at the grocery and home stores). We already have a whole box of duraflame logs. Suggested things to bring: ● tent and tarp underneath ● sleeping bag, pad (or air mattress) and pillow ● flashlights and/or lanterns ● camping/beach chairs ● change of clothes and shoes ● TP and toothbrush and toothpaste ● Food as needed for Friday dinner and Monday breakfast (pack provides lunch - Sunday breakfast) Optional things to bring: ● portable stove (if you have an extra one it would be great to bring it) ● skewers/hangers/sticks for roasting marshmallows ● cooler for water/drinks (drinks for meals provided) ● camera, binoculars, watch, walkie talkies, first-aid kit ● compass, whistle, sunglasses, sunscreen ● paper towels, wet wipes, trash bags ● fishing pole for fishing on Sunday or during break time Things to leave at home: ● electronic games, etc. of any kind Camping Equipment Information: Camping equipment can be readily purchased from stores such as REI, Sports Authority, and and D**k's Sporting Goods; Wal-Mart is also an option but not recommended for tents, can be hit or miss. REI also has equipment for rent on a limited first come, first serve basis from REI. REI has at least two Atlanta stores, one in Sandy Springs towards Perimeter Mall and one off of the I-85 access road inside I-285 near Clairmont Rd. |
