Troop Leadership in Camp

Every troop must be under the supervision of 2 adult leaders at all times. All adult scouters staying with scouts in camp are considered “scoutmasters.” Under the troop system of camping you are responsible for your unit at all times.

This means that the majority of discipline and organization of the troop is your responsibility. It is never the camp staff’s job to take over your job as a leader, but to aid you in achieving the utmost respect of your scouts.
