SUMMER CAMP for Troop 464At the troop annual planning meeting the Boys picked Camp Orr and El Rancho CIMA as our two summer camp opportunities this summer. We will post more information once the troop gets confirmation of our reservations. | CAMP ORR website | CIMA website | Medical Forms | Adult Forms | If your son is new to Boy Scouting we must have a Class 2 medical form filled out by a physician in order for him to attend summer camp at CIMA. If he is planning on going to ORR then he must have a Class 3 medical form, Arkansas requires all participants to have a class 3. The class 2 personal health history form is normally good for all adults and youth up to the age of 39 and must be renewed every three years. If your son has been in the troop for 3 years please check your son's medical form and make sure that it has not expired. All adults 40 and older must have a Class 3 medical form filled out by their physician. The class 3 must be updated every year for all adults 40 and older. Please schedule the physical exams ASAP and turn in the forms to Lisa Miller.
