6 Everyone attending camp for any period of time must have a Physical, less than 12 months old as of the day they arrive at camp and, as specified below, no exceptions. Parts A, B, and C are required for all youth and adults who will remain at camp longer than 72. hours. Campers arriving without a physical on the correct form signed by certified and licensed physicians (MD, DO, Nurse Practitioners, or Physician Assistants) must obtain a physical within 72 hours to remain at camp. Part A and B are required for anyone who will be at camp 72 hours or less. Campers who will be at camp 72 hours or less are not required to see a physician, just complete Parts A and B.

7 The correct form is LOCATED IN the end of this Guide and at the following website: School physicals, other types of physicals, and physicals on the incorrect or outdated forms will not be accepted. Physicals signed by Chiropractors, RNs, LPNs, etc. or any other healthcare provider not listed above will not be accepted. Youth Protection Guidelines at Camp The Boy Scouts of America have a very successful policy concerning the protection of youth and adults at camp. This policy is contained in the two-deep policy that every unit must abide by. We train all camp staff members in these policies and a brief summary is provided to unit Leaders so we can provide a safe and secure environment while at Camp Morrison .

8 Every unit must have at least two registered adult Leaders present during their entire stay at camp, one of which must be 21 years of age or older. You cannot switch out Leaders until the replacement has actually arrived. Arriving Leaders must check in at the Trading Post. Transportation to and from camp must be in safe and insured vehicles with seat belts for all passengers. Do not allow riders in the back of pickup trucks. Youth are not allowed to be alone in tents with adults at any time unless it is their parent or guardian. Youth and adults must not shower or undress together at any time. No one-on-one activities between youth and adults are permitted at any time.

9 Corporal punishment, hazing, initiation, physical, sexual, or emotional abuse will not be tolerated at any time. Two registered adult Leaders must be in camp at all times. In emergency situations, the unit leader may contact the Camp Director to request the camp to provide a second leader for a limited amount of time. 5. 2018 Camp Morrison Leaders Guide The Sweet Sixteen of BSA Safety Camp Morrison Staff has been trained to follow the Sweet Sixteen of BSA Safety. Please ensure all your adult Leaders who attend Camp are trained and understand these principles. Few youth organizations encompass the breadth, volume, and diversity of physical activity common to Scouting, and none enjoys a better safety record.

10 The key to maintaining and improving this exemplary record is the conscientious and trained adult leader who is attentive to safety concerns. As an aid in the continuing effort to protect participants in Scouting activities, the Health and Safety Team of the BSA National Council has developed the "Sweet Sixteen" of BSA safety procedures for physical activity. These 16 points, which embody good judgment and common sense, are applicable to all activities. 1. QUALIFIED SUPERVISION: Every BSA activity should be supervised by a conscientious adult who understands and knowingly accepts responsibility for the well-being and safety of the children and youth in his or her care.
