Info from 2007:

This camp is an inter-patrol competition, which includes camp set up and cooking skills.  Pre-camp helpful hints..... You will not be allowed to coach your Scouts once they are at the camp, so do it now!

---

Check-in – Check-in time is between 5:30 and 7:30. Each Patrol needs to approach the check-in area with their packs on their back, ready to go. Uniform – Uniform means “the same”, so whether the Patrol wears the traditional tan shirt or the casual uniform, they need to be, well, uniform. Regardless, they need to wear their neckerchiefs.

---

Kitchen set-up – The Patrols' kitchen areas should be as far away from their tents as possible. The idea is that in an actual back-woods camping, you don’t want your tent to end up smelling like dinner. Food should be properly cached (hung). The cooking area should be covered by a tarp. Supper Challenge – Each Patrol will be cooking a meal for a leader. The meal needs to have all the food groups, be lightweight and be able to survive three days on the trail. Frozen food does not qualify. Packaged foods should be repacked so that they take up less space. The Scouts should go all out to impress their dinner guest, including saying grace, washing the guest’s dishes and having a written invitation.
