• The BSA requires all adults who use a chainsaw on Boy Scout property or at a Scouting event to complete the BSA Chain Saw Safety Course. 
• Since many adult Arrowmen support camp on workdays with a chainsaw, we will offer this course during Fall Fellowship.
• The course starts at 9:00 am and will end at 3:00 pm. 
• Our camp rangers, Dave Douglas and Steve Allred, will teach the course.
• The course is hands-on.
• If you are interested in the course, please indicate so on the registration form. 
• If you have a chainsaw and safety equipment (helmet, earplugs, chaps, gloves) please bring them to the weekend.

As part of our youth protection and safety plan:

2. All youth who attend an Order of the Arrow event are responsible for the safety of other youth participants.
3. All youth attendees must be registered members of the BSA.

6. All participants will be assigned to a specific campsite. Each chapter will have its own campsite.
7. Each campsite will have a minimum of three campsite hosts. In most cases, the campsite hosts will be the chapter advisers. Campsite hosts will be adults over the age of 21. Should a Scout need assistance during the weekend, the Scout should seek out one of these campsite hosts. Each campsite will have at least one adult male and one adult female campsite host.
