2. Only Scouts with the "Tote 'n Chip" card in their possession can use a knife, ax, saw, or hatchet, at any time, including during campouts. Scouts who violate the safety rules of this card will have a corner clipped off or even have the card revoked by an adult leader.

3. No glass containers will be brought on Scout activities.

4. All Scouts' parents must fill out a medical form for their sons. This form is for leaders' emergency use. In addition, adult leaders also need to fill out a medical form. These are absolute requirements for Boy Scout Summer Camp for both Scouts and leaders. Christian Scientist families should see the Scout-master for appropriate waiver forms for camp and Troop activities.

5. All injuries, including burns, cuts and scrapes--no matter how small--must be reported to an adult leader.

6. For safety, no candles, stoves or open flames are allowed in or near the tents. Scouts may use lanterns only at the leader's discretion, but Scouts may never use lanterns or candles in tents.

7. Matches and lighters may only be used with a purpose; they may not be played with.

8. Alcohol, tobacco, or other controlled substances (e.g., illegal drugs) are, of course, strictly prohibited.

9. All inappropriate items or matter that violate the Scout, local, state, or federal law may be turned in to local authorities. Possession of such items may lead to any required response by the Leaders and/or the Troop Committee. (See section on Troop Scout Law Policy.)

10. All Scouts are required to take a First Aid Merit Badge Course when offered if they don't already have the badge. Scouts who passed the course more than two years ago encouraged to attend the course, but are not given the test. (This refresher course is also recommended by the Red Cross.)

11. All Scouts MUST obey the Boy Scouts of America Safe Swim Defense Rules. If you don't know them, see the Scout Handbook (page 229) or the Scoutmaster.
