This page is to provide information (as an S.O.P.) for campout policies. These are set by the Troop Committee. The Troop Committee can be any parents who come to the meeting; every family has an equal voice.
This page applies to car-camping, not high adventure.
When enough people commit to attending a campout, the site is reserved and paid for at that time by those who committed. (For example, if a site costs $60 and 5 commit, then the cost is $12.00/person.) If people add on, they pay at the same rate ($12.00/person) and the extra funds go to the Troop for equipment as needed (new stove, propane, etc.). There are no refunds, but if Person A makes arrangements with Person B to go in his stead, then that is a replacement rather than an add-on.
Cooks are given a budget of $5.00/person/meal. Final counts are as of the Tuesday before the campout, at which time those attending are expected to pay for their food shares. After that, there is no refund. Late cancellations happen but require changes in logistics, particularly if the cancellation is by a driver or a cook.
Sometimes there are two cooks for a six-meal campout, with each cook feeding everyone. Other times, there are two cooks and each cook has his own meal group. This should be clear on the page for that campout.
