Equipment that you will need for the campout:

 

Things your patrol will probably need: 

Cook kit (pots, pans, utensils - spatula, spoon, can opener, etc*)

 

Eating utensils for everyone – plate, cup, knife/fork/spoon - Scouts SHOULD bring their own

 

Water jug (remember to bring water if it’s not available at the campsite)

 

Cooler (with ice or ice packs) if you have any perishable foods

 

Cook stove (unless all cooking will be over campfire)

 

Fuel for cook stove (check your canister)

 

Matches (tinder often a good backup)

 

Dish soap (For soaping pot bottoms and for cleanup)

 

Sponge/Scrubby

 

Salt & pepper

 

 

Dutch oven (if needed) and something to lift the lid

 

 

 

 *Think through what you’re going to cook and make sure you will have what you need. Normally the Troop will provide most of this gear, but it's up to the Scouts to make sure we will have it before they plan to need it.
