Fall Campout in Calvert Cliffs

To participate in our Fall Pack Overnighter, your Scout’s 2017-18 dues must be paid. A permission slip must be filled out for the scout (attached to this event in Scoutbook). Health Form AB is required for *all* participants including adults and siblings.

What do I need to pack?

Scouts can wear their yellow “Class B” shirts rather than their uniforms.

The pack has reserved Youth Group sites 1 and 3. We have Site 1 reserved for Friday night, so arrivals before 3pm on Saturday should meet at Site 1. The larger Site 3 will be available us at 3pm.

Directions: Proceed approximately 14 miles south of Prince Frederick on Route 4. Follow the signs to Calvert Cliffs State Park. Turn left, as if to go into the park entrance. Turn left again on Rt. 765. Go one half mile (just past Middleham Chapel) and turn right onto Camp Conoy Road. Follow Camp Conoy Road to the end of the hard surface road and bear right onto the dirt road. The entrance to Camp Bay Breeze will be about one quarter mile on the right. GPS Directions to 775 Camp Conoy Rd, Lusby, MD 20657.
