General Camp Policy's (Camp Don Harrington and Camp MK Brown)

The Speed limit in camp is 15 miles per hour.

For Unit camping, you will be authorized 2 vehicles (preferably Pickup Trucks) to drive to your assigned Campsite, drop off equipment/personnel, and return to the parking area within 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the Campmaster/Ranger will rescind this authorization and you will lose your “camp driving” privilege. Upon your scheduled departure time, the Campmaster/Ranger will transport your equipment (must be on the side of the road near your campsite and you load it on the Camp Truck/Trailer) to the parking lot where you will transfer the items to your vehicles.

No vehicles will remain at a campsite without the express permission of the Camp Ranger/Campmaster or other designated official.

Vehicles will remain on developed roads only. Do not drive onto the campsite for any reason.

Ground fires are permitted in established fire rings only. Do not leave fires unattended. Check with Camp Ranger/Campmaster for any fire restrictions and obey them.

Do not cut any trees or brush without the approval of the Camp Ranger/Campmaster.

No alcoholic beverages or illegal drugs are permitted on camp property. Violators will be asked to leave immediately. No fireworks are allowed on camp property.

No animals (dogs, cats etc) are allowed on camp property.

Do not bury trash or dig pits for any reason

Before any Scout may depart camp (unless leaving as a unit), the unit leader must have the parent/guardian report to the Camp Parking Lot and personally hand over the child to the parent/guardian. This protects both the Scout and the Unit Leader from unauthorized departure. Parents must come to the Camp Parking lot to pick up the youth not the main gate.

Dispose of all trash ac*****ulated by your unit/group and take it to the nearest dumpster. Do not leave in the trash can when you depart camp (animals will make a huge mess).

Do not put trash in cans without a bag- see the Camp Ranger/Campmaster

No swimming is allowed in the creek (CDH). Fishing is permitted.

All Campsites and Camp owned equipment and facilities are subject to inspection and the departing units will be held responsible for any damage or loss of camp owned equipment.

Do not enter occupied campsites without the permission of the leadership of that camp.

Quiet hours are from 10pm to 6am.

Do not harm or harass the wildlife.

Do not bring personal firearms to camp unless you are using the ranges and prior permission is granted.

You must check-in with the Campmaster/Ranger (both camps) before proceeding through the gate (CDH only). Provide gate codes (CDH Only) to all your unit members who are planning on joining your unit at camp for your short term camping experience. If no Campmaster/Ranger is on duty, the guest may not be able to gain entry so please be prepared.

No camping is allowed in any building except the Campmaster Lodge (CDH) and Nurses Quarters (CDH) and Lew Benz (MKB).

Venture Crews with females must also have a female advisor on site upon arrival.

Short Term Reservation form (with the Camp Policy’s on the reverse side) and other required certifications (Swimming, Shooting, Boating etc) must be in the initial leader’s possession upon arrival at camp or you will not be allowed to use the facilities.
