WELCOME
TO THE
CURTIS S. READ
SCOUT RESERVATION
The Curtis S. Read Scout Reservation is one of America’s premier Scout Camps.
This picturesque 1000 acre property is located north of Lake George, New York in
the six million acre Adirondack Park. Our outstanding facility boasts three camps
that offer all styles of Scout camping. At Camp Buckskin Scouts have their meals
prepared for them by our professional food service staff. Camp Waubeeka gives
Scouts an additional sense of accomplishment by cooking their own meals in their
campsites. All of the food they prepare is provided by the camp. Older, more
experience Scouts may attend the Summit High Adventure Base and go on weeklong treks throughout the Adirondack Park.
The keys to the ongoing success of Read are
great facilities, great food and an
outstanding staff that is dedicated to your
Scout. Flexibility, caring and dedication are
critical as we deliver the finest program
available for Scouts.

9 ADVANCEMENT
FLEXIBLE PROGRAM The Cur s S. Read Scout Reserva on operates merit badge instruc on u lizing a class schedule system. This system minimizes conflicts with the scheduling of any in‐camp or out‐of‐camp ac vi es. In many cases badges will be offered both in the morning and the a ernoon. Evening ac vity mes will include badge make‐up instruc on. Flexibility of the staff and the camper will make this system work! A boy should not have any merit badge conflicts! If he does, see the area directors or camp management immediately to resolve the situa on. Due to restric ons in class size, some badges have limited availability. RANK ADVANCEMENT PROGRAM The Rank Advancement or Tenderfoot to First Class program is designed to help the first‐year camper “hit the ground running”. Each day your boys will get an exci ng introduc on to what Scou ng is all about. Designed to pique their interest in Scou ng, outdoor requirements from Tenderfoot, Second Class and First Class are covered by experienced staff members. All Scouts who are not yet First Class will benefit from being involved with this program. Details on what instruc on is offered each day begin on page 17. MERIT BADGE PROGRAM Merit Badges are offered in seven program areas around camp: Aqua cs, Handicra , Ecology, Equestrian, Summit Base, Scoutcra and Field Sports. First Aid Merit Badge will be offered at the Health Lodge or at a loca on to be announced at Camp. Please note that each Scout must bring a signed merit badge applica on (blue card) to his counselor on the first day of instruc on. This card, with a leader’s signature, is the staff’s assurance that a leader has approved the Scout taking the badge. To help your Scouts in earning merit badges, we offer the following sugges ons: 1. Try to avoid le ng a boy a empt too many merit badges. We set no limit of badges a boy may work on, but some mes desires are larger than abili es. An experienced camper usually can successfully complete four badges and should have the opportunity to par cipate in all camp ac vi es. You know their capabili es; guide them in se ng realis c goals. 2. DO NOT LET A POTENTIAL CONFLICT DISCOURAGE A BOY FROM TAKING A BADGE. THE STAFF IS IN CAMP TO SERVE THE BOYS AND IS VERY FLEXIBLE. 3. See to it that the Scout has reviewed the requirements of his sought‐a er badge. It is helpful if he has completed the me requiring por ons of the badge prior to camp. 4. Any requirements which are listed as required in advance must be completed before camp in order for the boy to complete his badge. 5. Proper documenta on is required for credit to be given for work completed before Scout’s arrival in Camp. 6. A par al comple on cer ficate will be given to Scouts unable to complete the full badge requirements in camp. This par al is valid un l the Scout turns 18. REGISTERING FOR ADVANCEMENT SESSIONS The Read Scout Reserva on operates an internet based system for merit badge registra on. Your Scout will pick his advancement opportuni es and communicate them with his adult leader. Once you have paid the camp fee in full, Diane Walsh n the Council Service Center will assist you with registering your Scout for merit badges. wpcbsa.org

19 Annual Health and Medical Record
(Valid for 12 calendar months)
Policy on Use of the Annual Health and Medical Record
In order to provide better care for its members and to assist them in better understanding their own physical
capabilities, the Boy Scouts of America recommends that everyone who participates in a Scouting event have
an annual medical evaluation by a certified and licensed health-care provider—a physician (MD or DO), nurse
practitioner, or physician assistant. Providing your medical information on this four-part form will help ensure
you meet the minimum standards for participation in various activities. Note that unit leaders must always
protect the privacy of unit participants by protecting their medical information.
Parts A and B are to be completed at least annually by participants in all Scouting events. This health history,
parental/guardian informed consent and hold harmless/release agreement, and talent release statement is to be
completed by the participant and parents/guardians.
Part C is the physical exam that is required for participants in any event that exceeds 72 consecutive hours,
for all high-adventure base participants, or when the nature of the activity is strenuous and demanding. Service
projects or work weekends may fit this description. Part C is to be completed and signed by a certified and
licensed heath-care provider—physician (MD or DO), nurse practitioner, or physician assistant. It is important
to note that the height/weight limits must be strictly adhered to when the event will take the unit more than
30 minutes away from an emergency vehicle–accessible roadway, or when the program requires it, such as
backpacking trips, high-adventure activities, and conservation projects in remote areas. See the FAQs for when
this does not apply.
Part D is required to be reviewed by all participants of a high-adventure program at one of the national highadventure bases and shared with the examining health-care provider before completing Part C.
• Philmont Scout Ranch. Participants and guests for Philmont activities that are conducted with limited
access to the backcountry, including most Philmont Training Center conferences and family programs,
will not require completion of Part C. However, participants should review Part D to understand potential
risks inherent at 6,700 feet in elevation in a dry Southwest environment. Please review specific registration
information for the activity or event.
• Northern Tier National High Adventure Base.
• Florida National High Adventure Sea Base. The PADI medical form is also required if scuba diving
at this base.
Risk Factors
Based on the vast experience of the medical community, the BSA has identified the following risk factors that
may limit your participation in various outdoor adventures.
• Excessive body weight
• Heart disease
• Hypertension (high blood pressure)
• Diabetes
• Seizures
• Lack of appropriate immunizations
• Asthma
• Allergies/anaphylaxis
• Muscular/skeletal injuries
• Psychiatric/psychological and
emotional difficulties
For more information on medical risk factors, visit Scouting Safely on www.scouting.org.
Prescriptions
The taking of prescription medication is the responsibility of the individual taking the medication and/or that
individual’s parent or guardian. A leader, after obtaining all the necessary information, can agree to accept the
responsibility of making sure a youth takes the necessary medication at the appropriate time, but BSA does not
mandate or necessarily encourage the leader to do so. Also, if state laws are more limiting, they must be followed.
