BSA 102 SCOUT ORIENTATION CAMPOUT
To be held one month after BSA 101. This course requires a
source of electricity for a TV and VCR.
At the last Troop meeting before the campout, show a Compass & Map
Instructional video, then play the Beginner’s Compass Game (BSA 1132).
This will ensure that the Scouts will have a basic knowledge of map reading and
compass use before the campout. Follow
the same general pre-camp preparation procedures as BSA 101.
Instructions to new Scouts and instructors:
Read your Boy Scout Handbook chapters on compass.
lashing and cooking before the campout.
Bring your Boy Scout Handbook to the campout. Bring your
pocketknife, compass, backpack and proper clothing for expected weather. Wear
your Class A uniform to the campout and change to Class B upon arrival. Try to eat a good Dinner before leaving for
the campout.
