Address: 419 Boy Scout Road, Blounts Creek, NC, 27814  First Year Camper programThe First Year Camper (FYC) program is for young Scouts who may be attending summer camp for the very first time or need help in working on Tenderfoot, Second Class or First Class Advancement.There are five basic goals for the FYC Scouts program: 1. To provide a well-organized program based upon the patrol method and lead by qualified instructors. 2. To teach participants basic skills necessary to succeed in Scouting and to enjoy outdoor programs. 3. To instill in the boy a respect for Scouting’s methods and ideals. 4. To maintain a ratio that is comparable to an average patrol: eight-ten boys for every patrol guide/instructor. 5. To provide an exciting and memorable summer camp experience that motivates boys to be active in their troops and continue in Scouting. While in the first year program Scouts will cover a vast majority of the basic rank advancement requirements (except for troop participation requirements, Scoutmaster Conferences & Boards of Review). Scouts should complete the following requirements: Tenderfoot requirements: 1, 2, 3, 4a, 4b, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12a, 12b, 13 Second Class requirements: 1a, 2, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 4, 5, 6, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a, 8b, 11 First Class requirements: 1, 2, 4a, 4c, 4d, 6, 7a, 7b, 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, 9a, 9b, 9c, 11, 12 On Thursday night Scouts will depart for an overnight off-site campout to complete the camping requirements for Tenderfoot Reg. # 1, 2 & 3 and 2nd Class Reg. # 3b.
