Health Forms from summer camp last year are now on file for the next 4 months.   If you did not go to summer camp you should have at least Part A and Part B of the New Health Form submitted to the troop.  [Part C is the visit to the Doctor’s office]. This is important information that we have and are able to take on our outdoor outings in case of an emergency.  Please help us by getting this information into the Troop. As any medications changes please update Part A of your son’s form. See the website for a link to the latest revision of this form.  Once you get this Medical Form updated, please turn in to Rob Robinett.  PLEASE MAKE A COPY FOR YOUR OWN RECORDS BEFORE TURNING IT IN TO US.
