- Use of the camp properties are issued through the Camping Service of the Cradle of Liberty Council. Your permit covers the proper Scouting use of COL camps and activities within its boundaries. If your unit or part of it expects to plan an activity out of camp, you must advise the camp ranger/ camp master of your trip plan (destination, time of departure, and expected time of return). If the activity is on privately owned land, permission of the landowner is required and must be secured beforehand.
In Camp Authority
- The camp ranger/ camp masters are authorized to deal with infractions of scout camp rules. If the immediate safety or comfort of others is in jeopardy, those individuals or unit who are violating the rules will be asked to leave.

- During the entire time your unit is in camp, the unit must be supervised by a minimum of two registered adult leaders or one registered leader and a non-registered parent of a participation youth. One of whom must be 21 years of age. Coed (Venture) camping activities require the supervision of at least one registered female adult leader and one registered male adult leader. Additional adult participation: The unit short-term camping experience is enhanced by, and often requires, the participation of additional adults beyond the minimum two-deep leadership. Your unit is encouraged to involve additional adults in short-term camping provided that each participant is a registered adult leader, or an unregistered adult designated in writing as acting “in loco parents” for a participating youth.
