The Camp Law is the Scout Law.
- Group leaders are responsible for their youth at all times.
- No alcohol, drugs or tobacco possession or consumption is permitted on the
premises.
- No open fires during the summer season (June - September)
or as per provincial backcountry guidelines outside of this season. When
permitted, open fires will only be in a designated, existing fire circles.
- There is to be no trespassing onto other properties or subdivisions.
- The camp shall not be used without a proper booking and fee
payment.
- Vehicles are permitted on site for unloading purposes. Vehicles should be
parked outside the gate. Respect the public access road and the access to neighbouring properties.
Do not block the road or driveways with vehicles.
- Road access to the sites must be left clear at all times
for emergency vehicle access.
- All noise must cease at 11 pm out of respect for our lakeside neighbours.
- Keep the gate closed and locked at all times. This discourages "local
partiers" from venturing into camp. The gate is a shared access to the
lake with the subdivision residents.
- When leaving site, ensure all barrier chains and gates are locked and
return the key(s)
