Wish to send something to your camper?  


Address it to:


Scout’s Name, T168, Minsi Campsite

Rodney Scout Reservation

400 Rodney Scout Road

North East, MD 21901

 

Due to mail/delivery delays, consider sending several days BEFORE their week of camp begins.


Alternatively, you can give personal letters to your adult leaders that are dated for when your Scout should receive it. This prevents the risk of letters not arriving in time to reach your Scouts.

Suggestion:  Invest in a plastic footlocker!  They're great for packing a week's worth of camp items.
