Hanna Winter Resort
Promote and Prepare
- Use this guide in explaining the program to
Scouts. There are activities for all age
groups. If they choose, older Scouts can
go on an overnight trek, middle age build a
snow shelter, and new Scouts enroll in Project Tenderfoot. Troops and patrols
may want to create their own schedule.
- Register by December 31 to avoid the $5
late fee per camper.
- Hold a meeting to check each Scout’s
gear before leaving for camp.
- Let us know ahead of time if any camper has special medical or food needs.
- Have a Health History/Parental Permission
Form completed for every camper. Bring a
duplicate of this form to camp as we are required to keep them for 5 years.
- Medications brought to camp must be in
their original container.
Typical Day At Camp
Once you arrive, one leader should come into
the Hanna Venture Base with Health History/
Parental Permission Forms and all medication to check in.
Staff will then direct you to your cabins. Troops may be split up to follow Youth Protection guidelines but we will try to keep everyone
together if possible. The Buffalo Bill, Bixby, Ledbetter, Dosier and Schooley cabins
as well as the rooms inside the Hanna Venture
Base will be used for campers.
Once settled in, you can simply get comfortable and play some board games and there
will be a meeting to help you and the staff prepare
for the weekend activities.
After breakfast on Saturday, staff will check out equipment and explain how to properly
use it. Campers may use the equipment for
the entire day if they choose. Other than
scheduled meals, the day is completely theirs. The climbing wall will again be open after supper.
Showers, restrooms, equipment storage, and
meals are in Hanna Venture Base. Meals include
Saturday breakfast at 8:00, lunch at
12:30, supper at 6:30, and Sunday breakfast at 8:00.
Before leaving, a leader should check out with
the director and collect patches, pay any remaining
balance, and complete an evaluation.
