Don't Forget to Schedule Your Physical for Summer Camp!


Physical forms are due on Monday June 4. It is very important that we have these on time so the Troop can take advantage of expresss check in when we get to camp. If they are not all submitted several weeks early then the entire troop must go through the extended check in process.

You will need to have parts A, B and C of "BSA Annual Health and Medical Record" completed. A link to the most recent version of the form is available on the Troop 210 website under the tab "Forms".

You need to be aware of the last date a physical was done since your insurance may not pay for a physical done within 365 days of an earlier physical. Be prepared.

If you are planning on playing middle school or high school sports remember to bring a WCPSS physical form with you. Same goes for Pop Warner Football physicals.
