Troop 705

Packing List

This is a suggested packing list – it is up to the Scout to ensure that he brings everything needed for each specific camping trip.  Each Scout needs to ensure that the appropriate quantities of clothing are taken according to the length of the camping trip.  This packing list includes both hot and cold weather items.  Each Scout must choose the clothing appropriate to the weather.
