**UPDATE ABOUT ADULT LEADERSHIP REQUIREMENTS**

PER THE GUIDE TO SAFE SCOUTING AND THE BARRIERS TO ABUSE, THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET. 

-THERE MUST BE 2 REGISTERED LEADERS IN ATTENDANCE WITH EACH UNIT.

-BECAUSE THE EVENT IS LESS THAN 72 HOURS, ADDITIONAL ADULTS NEED NOT BE REGISTERED, HOWEVER CLEARANCES AND YOUTH PROTECTION TRAINING ARE REQUIRED. 

-UNREGISTERED ADULT HELPERS MAY ONLY TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN CHILDREN PLUS ONE (1) ADDITIONAL CHILD.  SEE BELOW FOR CLARIFICATION.

From the Guide to Safe Scouting “In special circumstances, a Cub Scout whose parent or legal guardian is not able to attend an overnight camping trip may participate under the supervision of another registered adult member of the BSA who is a parent of a Cub Scout who is also attending. The unit leader and a parent or legal guardian must agree to the arrangement, and all Youth Protection policies apply. At no time may another adult accept responsibility for more than one additional “non-family member” youth.”

FOR FURTHER CLARIFICATION, PLEASE CONTACT THE SCOUT OFFICE AT 814-868-5571.
