Camp Use Policy Back to Top

Boy Scouts of America, Laurel Highlands Council

The best rules for camp are the Scout Oath and Scout Law paired with good common sense. To avoid misunderstanding, the following conditions also prevail.

Thank you for your cooperation and have a GREAT CAMPOUT!  Please have the courtesy to call the camp if you cancel your plans within two days of your arrival date.

RESERVATIONS:  Order and registration numbers will be issued with the completion of an online reservation.  Reservations are confirmed only when a confirmation email has been issued from the online reservation system.  All reservations are accepted on a first-come basis. In the event of an emergency, the council reserves the right to cancel reservations with 24 hours' notice.  Unpaid reservations will be held for ten business days. After 10 days, the reservation will be removed from the online system. Camp cannot be responsible for the loss or damage of group or personal items.

CANCELLATIONS/REFUNDS: Refunds must be requested in writing at least 14 days before the reservation.  Refunds requested within 14 days of the reservation will be issued at the discretion of the LHC Camping Department.  Requests after the reservation date or for no-shows will not be considered. If it becomes necessary to close a facility due to inclement weather or another emergency, you will be notified and allowed to reschedule. Do not assume that a camp is closed due to inclement weather. Refunds will be issued via check, less a 10% processing fee. Credit toward future events will not be given.

BUILDING CAPACITIES:  Building capacities are set by the local Board of Health and/or Fire Marshall and are not to be exceeded under any circumstances. Groups that exceed the listed building capacity must tent overflow campers outside, or rent additional facilities. Smoke and Carbon Monoxide detectors are installed for your safety. It is both illegal and extremely dangerous to tamper with or disable them.  Violators may lose camping privileges- please tell Camp Ranger or Campmaster if you have a malfunctioning alarm.

CAMP RULES and INFRACTIONS: All rental groups are expected to abide by the directions of the Camp Ranger or designee, follow all camp rules, and abide by applicable BSA policies and procedures. The Laurel Highlands Council Executive Board has designated the Camp Ranger or designee as the authority for dealing with any rule infractions.  If the immediate safety of others is put in jeopardy, groups may be immediately expelled and no refund will be issued.  For serious or repeated infractions, such as not following proper check out procedures, the Laurel Highlands Council may deny the use of the camps to a group.  If common laws are broken, local police may be notified.

 

 

Check In Procedure Back to Top

Upon arrival proceed directly to your reserved location. Contact the ranger or campmaster on duty to let them know you have arrived. They will stop by as soon as they are able to check-in, collect final camper numbers, and answer any questions you may have.

Check Out Procedure Back to Top

Prior to leaving, please make sure your reserved area has been cleaned. Notify the camp ranger or campmaster on duty that you are ready to check-out and they will stop by to walk through the facility and complete check-out.

Cancellation Policy Back to Top

Refunds must be requested in writing at least 14 days before the event. Refunds requested within 14 days of the event will be issued at the discretion of the LHC Camping Department.  Requests after the event or for no-shows will not be considered.

Refunds will be issued via check, less a 10% processing fee.  Credit toward future events will not be given.

Cleaning Policy Back to Top

A Scout leaves a place cleaner than they found it.   If staying in a cabin, please clean and remove trash before checking out.  If cleaning supplies are needed, please see the Ranger or Campmaster.

Practice Leave No Trace principles in campsites.
