Weather November 26, 2011 (Requirement 8 and 9 are to be done before coming to camp. Email the counselor before beginning these requirements. If you attend the National Weather Service Open House, take the tour, and find out what type of weather is most dangerous or damaging to your community, and how severe weather and flood warnings reach the homes in your community, to complete requirement 8b.)

The demand for these courses is usually high but we have been able to get all Scouts into at least one course of their choice-if they register early.

Do not send any money at this time. Upon acceptance of your application, you will be notified to send your course registration fee to confirm your reservation.

Information that you provide to us on this form will not be shared with any outside agency or individual. From time to time publicity photographs are taken at SPARK Lodge; while you may be in one or more of these photographs, your identity will not be revealed without your permission.
