Dropoff: Fort Washington State Park
Pickup: Fort Washington State Park
Join Troop 152 for a weekend of camping and advancement at Fort Washington State Park. This is attempt numer 2 after we had to cancel in August.
As with our meetings, masks and social distancing are required at all times. Scouts and leaders from different house will not share tents or cars. And we will collect the new health form on dropoff and take temperatures.
We collected a lot of people's medical forms part A and B last month. But if you didn't submit them already, they are required to go camping. These must be signed by a parent/guardian (on both parts!), but don't need to be signed by a doctor. Download the form here.
We are also doing individual cooking. You buy, bring, and prepare your own food. But like we discussed last month, the menu will be tailored to the health restrictions we are under.

Dropoff: Fort Washington State Park
Pickup: Fort Washington State Park
Join Troop 152 for a weekend of camping and advancement at Fort Washington State Park. This will be our first trip back after the shutdown.
And we will be taking all the necessary precautions. As with our meetings, masks and social distancing are required at all times. Scouts and leaders from different house will not share tents or cars. And we will collect the new health form on dropoff and take temperatures.
Since everyone's medical forms are out of date, we are asking that you submit medical forms part A and B along with your permission slip. These must be signed by a parent/guardian, but don't need to be signed by a doctor. Download the form here.
We are also doing individual cooking. You buy, bring, and prepare your own food. We will bring our standard monster box kitchens.
Below are several documents with what you will need for the trip:
It’s that time of the year again! The troop’s annual Wreath Sale fundraiser is back. This is the only fundraiser we have to fund the Troop’s activities. What is unique is that this fundraiser can fund your trips as well! We would like every scout to sell at least 12 wreaths.
Wreaths are $20 and stands are $2. These are Douglas Fir Wreaths grown in Pennsylvania, and delivered to us the day after Thanksgiving.
As usual, you can earn Scout Points for each wreath you sell. The point distribution is as follows:
| Wreaths | Points |
|---|---|
| 1-24 | 2 / wreath |
| 25+ | 3 / wreath |
Wreath sales from a family of Scouts/Scouters will be combined to establish point awards. However, each scout/scouter must report their sales individually to establish scout point distribution among family members.
Points can be redeemed for scouting trips. Scouts have been known to pay for summer camp from wreath sales! This is a busy time of year, but work now can result in a lot of free trips! The money from this fundraiser supports the troop and is mainly used to purchase equipment.
Smile and be friendly. Be sure to explain that the wreath is a quality product; not only is the customer getting a beautiful holiday decoration but is supporting a good cause as well!
Personalize it! Let your customer know that the proceeds help the troop buy and maintain camping equipment and helps defray costs of scouting activities. (Tell them about the great trips we take!)
Please get cash or check in advance. Checks should be payable to "BSA Troop 152". Though, previous customers accustomed to pay on delivery are also acceptable.
Hooray! You've made a sale. When you go to turn in you sales, you need to put everything in an envelope with the following information:
Then, you can drop it all off on the wreath table at the weekly scout meeting. For example, the front of your envelope should look like this:
