To Troop 805,

Our second Summer Camp Sign Up is now available. Camp Wente is an awesome summer camp and lots of scouts from our troop have voted for this summer camp in our troop survey.

For 2015, Troop 805 is planning to go to Camp Wente on July 12th – July 18th.
Your scouts can attend either Wente or Camp Cherry Valley or BOTH.

MY ASK:

If your scouts want to attend Camp Wente in Willits, California, I need the following:

  1. Fill out the Camp Reservation Form
  2. Fill out the Camp Wente Permission Slip
  3. Staple a check made out to Troop 805 in the amount of $200 (first payment)

NOTE: Total cost for Camp Wente is $450 (this does NOT include ground transportation).

PLEASE RETURN the THREE items listed above to me no later than Tuesday, December 16th (PLC). This is very important. I need to make our first payment to Camp Wente by year end, otherwise we lose our reservation.

Thank you in advance for your help. Please let me know if you have any questions.
