Depending upon the type of activity, some of these steps may not apply or you may need to perform additional planning. Work with the lead ASM to decide which steps are appropriate. Review each planning stage with your lead ASM. Upon approval, obtain the lead ASM s signature. Keep this document as a record. Place a checkmark by completed steps, and an by steps which are not appropriate. Lead Scouts will be responsible for all planning except as noted by [ASM].

2 3 to 6+ months prior to the activity Determine: Lead Scout: Asst. Lead Scout: Lead Parent (parent of Lead Scout): Lead ASM: If activity involves hiking/backpacking, work closely with the lead ASM to develop a detailed route plan that includes identifying trails to be used, elevation changes, water sources, and prominent landmarks. Identify additional equipment and logistics requirements. Confirm reservations were made by the troop s reservation coordinator. Obtain reservation details such as location, check-in and check-out times, maximum group size, etc. [ASM] Request reimbursement from the Troop Treasurer for any reservation or permit fees obtained. The Troop84 Reimbursement Template can be found under the Finance heading at Determine if any additional permits other than the BSA LOCAL TOUR PERMIT (Required) are needed, and if so, apply for, and obtain as quickly as possible. These could include Wilderness Areas, U. S. Forestry Fire Permit, etc. Addl. permits required: Send activity information to the troop webmaster to update the troop s activity calendar. The current webmaster(s) can be found here: Provide high level info such as: name of activity, dates, description, location, and estimated cost. For activities > 72 hours, Medical Forms part A, B & C are required. Send an to the Troop 84 Yahoo list that Medical Form part C in particular (part filled out by a Doctor) will be required for participants of this activity and must be current. A copy must be turned in 1 month in advance of the activity. Determine if any special equipment is needed for the activity such as canoes, dry bags, bear cans, etc.; find out who can supply the equipment and what the lead time is to get this equipment. If necessary, reserve the necessary equipment. Special equipment needed: Where to obtain equipment: Lead ASM Approval: Version 3 Page 2
3 2 months prior to activity Make an announcement at all troop meetings prior to the activity: Event: Who should attend: Where: When: What we will be doing: What you should bring (as the event nears): Class A Uniform worn to and from event Scout handbook if you are not yet first class. Others as needed. Look at the weather forecast; announce rain, heat, etc. Special equipment Other: Use the signup sheet on page 13 to find out who will attend the activity. If the activity involves High Adventure, make sure a properly trained trip leader is signed up for the activity, if not, and recruit one. (Note: Troop 84 policy prohibits non-registered, untrained adults from leading High Adventure troop activities). Make final arrangements/payments [ASM] for obtaining any special equipment needed for activity. Confirm all reservations Consider a pre-planning trip if route or activity area is unfamiliar or new. Work with the Patrol Leader s Council to develop an activity program / schedule. Planned activities: Lead ASM Approval: Version 3 Page 3

Send details to troop webmaster and ask that they post this on the troop website.

[ASM] Review the permission slips and make yourself aware of any participant medical issues. Have individual patrols plan meals, including a shopping list. A patrol grub master should also be selected to purchase the food. Give those Scouts working on Second Class, First Class and Cooking MB the opportunity to fulfill their requirements. Have an ASM review & sign-off on proposed menu, ensure menus are appropriate for the activity, and adhere to the troop guidelines. Have individual patrols choose a patrol quartermaster and prepare an equipment list.
