Leaders Guide February 26-28, 2021
Welcome from the 2021 Event Chair
Dear Fellow Scouts and Scouters,
Welcome to the Everglades District Camporee 2021!
This weekend, you have an amazing opportunity to partake in a wide variety of competitions against other patrols in the
Everglades District.
While competing, it’s imperative that we constantly exercise the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Good sportsmanship from
all teams will make all the competitions that much more fun.
During the Camporee, we hope that everyone will enjoy the awesome program we have put together.
Please use this handbook to guide you through the events, materials to bring as well as answers to any question you
may have. As always, we are here to provide additional information. Feel free to contact us via email or phone.
SPECIAL NOTE: The pre-release version of this Leaders Guide allows for units to begin practicing and/or planning
phase for this “off the grid” event. Covid 19 related updates and document refinement will be expected. Please refer
to the events link to ensure capture the most current version of the document
Yours in Scouting,

SFCBSA guidelines. Handy info and forms related to COVID-19 and Units holding
Camping Events or Activities and Meetings
Updated September 22, 2020
To ensure social distancing requirements, we are reducing the maximum capacity at our Council camps
effective June 12, 2020. During this time, the maximum capacity at each camp and at each campsite within
the camp is reduced by 50%.
The supplemental Covid-19 Questionnaire form in the Appendix of this document must be filled out and signed
for each participating member.
Prior to a campout and again when leaving for the campout, the unit leader must communicate to each parent
or guardian of a scout attending the campout and to each adult volunteer attending the campout that the scout
or adult is NOT permitted to attend the campout if they have been diagnosed with COVID-19, have exhibited
symptoms of COVID-19 or had contact with a person that has or is suspected of having COVID-19 within the past
fourteen days.

Each attendee should have his or her temperature taken with an infrared thermometer upon arrival at the meeting
to ensure no one in attendance has a fever over 100.4 degrees.
We will also require temperature checks at each morning flag ceremony
Facial covering or masks MUST be worn.
• Camporee specific/relevant Compliance includes:
Set up check-in lanes that allow for Participants to maintain a six-foot gap.
The six-foot requirement for groups can be briefly ignored when multiple Participants are arriving, or a group is
in transit. For example, one group can pass another group on a camp trail.
However, no lingering should occur. Please do not use this as an excuse to willfully ignore the social distancing
requirement.
• The Camporee Staff in charge of the meeting or event (or his or her designee) must sanitize high touch areas
before the meeting or event begins.
• Sanitation efforts will need to be coordinated with the organization that is allowing use of its facilities.
Adult leaders will oversee sanitation efforts. If a youth or youths will be sanitizing, adult Participants, following
youth protection policies, should supervise the sanitation efforts.
• COMMONLY TOUCHED SANITATION AREAS:
Doorknobs, tables, and other areas that are regularly touched must be wiped down and disinfected prior to the
arrival of others. (Routine sanitation of Port-o-Pottys, Well heads, Picnic areas/tables, Flag poles/rope cleats,
etc.)
o If a bathroom will be used, the bathroom must also be disinfected- sanitized before the arrival of others.
o While the Camporee Staff will ensure initial supplies of hand sanitizer or other hand washing supplies
are available DO NOT ASSUME the facility will have these supplies. Keep sanitation needs in your
backpack.
• Handshakes or other, person to person contact should not occur.
• Avoid sharing any tools or equipment among attendees (e.g., sign-in sheets, clip boards and pens that are
passed from person to person).
• When forming groups of ten or less, Youth Protection policies apply — including two deep leadership, age, and
gender of youth, etc.
o A maximum of ten Participants may gather together in one group.
For clarity, more than ten Participants may attend a meeting or event.
o All groups with a maximum of ten Participants must be at least six feet from all other groups.
o The six-foot requirement for groups can be briefly ignored when multiple Participants are arriving or if a
transition is required.

• Inside the group of ten or less, each individual should maintain the social distancing requirement.
The Adult Scouter in charge of the meeting must ensure that the social distancing requirement is followed.
For example, it may take a few minutes to separate Participants into different groups that are six feet apart.
Please do not use this as an excuse to willfully ignore the social distancing requirement.
• Each camper’s belongings should be stored separately (e.g., in their tent). o Belongings should not be co-mingled. o Discourage sharing of items such as flashlights, camp tools, etc. o One person per tent is mandated unless it is family members from the same home
Vehicles • Parents or guardians dropping off or picking up youth must remain in their cars. Please make sure all
parents are aware of vehicle policies. NO EXCEPTIONS!
• To the extent practicable, unit leaders should establish staggered drop off and pick up times.
• Hand sanitizer should be provided to youth and volunteer adults, at the drop location, if practicable.
• Unit Leaders should pre-screen each participant prior to departing for the campout to ensure no
participant is displaying symptoms of COVID-19.
UPDATE: TRAILERS will be accommodated. Notify Camp Staff of intention to bring trailer.
• Parking in assigned parking areas. This is PACK-IN event for SCOUTS. All gear they would normally carry
should be in their packs. Reference recommended packing / materials list.
• NO other vehicles will be allowed into the campgrounds for any other reason. Do not remove CONE
BARRICADES
Port-o-Potties: There will be several portable toilets that will be located throughout the campsite.
SPECIAL NOTE: For camp sites that have no Port-o-Potty a minimum of one port-o-potty will be provided.
While each camp site will have a guaranteed Port-o-Potty or compost toilet, it is recommended that each unit
reserve their own portable toilet. See reservation link: $75.00 each for their campsites.

Electric Connections: If anyone in your unit requires access to electricity for medical reasons, please plan for your own power, as we
cannot guarantee access to electrical outlets. Generators are discouraged due to the noise pollution.
For those persons requiring power for CPAP it is recommended to bring battery operated chargers.
(Example: Harbor Freight battery operated runs CPAP 2 days w/out charging).
Camp Sites: Multiple groups may share a campsite and facilities at our Council camps provided each group is at least six
feet from all other groups.
For example, a Troop with 35 scouts and adult Participants can share the same campground composed of three
or more groups (each comprised of 10 or fewer Participants) if there is enough room for each group to be at
least six feet apart from all other groups.
Once a group of 10 is formed, absent an emergency or other unexpected event, the group should remain as a
group the entire campout (i.e., no exchanging Participants among groups).
Scout Council Rules: • This is a scouting event all scouts must adhere; to the scout law, scout oath, outdoor code of conduct and guide
to safe scouting.
• No adult may complain about anything. All questions, comments, challenges, complaints, gripes, groans, etc.
should be handled through the Unit’s SPL or the Crew’s President.
• No parent, adult, or leader will help with judged or scored events and activities unless it is a written in, this is a
Scout led event. Camp site inspections will be done by leaders in the committee.
• The Camporee committee will have final say in all judging and scoring events.
• Bring all your own wood for fire and shelter building material. ONLY DEAD/Fallen wood may be collected.
There is a substantial amount of Poison Wood in Camp Everglades that will cause harm if burned. DO NOT select
wood unless you are able to identify it. Otherwise, we suggest if you plan to cook over open fire you will have
to bring your own wood. Wood may be brought with the troop and the Staff will deliver to the camp site.
• Be prepared to leave no trace once you leave, including pioneering wood.
• The Camporee will revolve around survival and surviving in the Glade.
As scouts, you always need to be prepared. You will have your skills tested in such a way that if the need arises
you would be able to survive an ordeal that throws you a curve ball. As a patrol, you will be challenged in skills,
challenges, activities, and events that shows how well your patrols responds. Embrace the survival theme with
scout led unit of patrols.

Meal Considerations: While each scout will be responsible for packing in and cooking their own meals, the safety guidelines must be
followed.
Council, District or Unit volunteer must ensure all food related requirements are followed provided by the
Department of Health. Pay particular attention to Safe Food Handling.
• Food preparation staff should use masks and gloves.
• Minimize all those in contact with preparing food.
• Avoid cross contamination.
• Use Grab and Go Meals prepared when possible.
• Avoid Buffet or Family Style serving.
• Encourage cooking and eating of meals within the group size of ten.
Staff meals provided by Camporee committee
Preparing for Survival A scout is prepared
A scout draws on their knowledge to assess the situation and provides a solution
A scout respects all life forms
A scout lends a helping hand
A scout patrol is the closet bond created in scouting
A scout seeks to improve themselves through knowledge and training
"A Scout is never taken by surprise; he knows exactly what to do when anything unexpected happens."

Survival Shelter
Work with your patrol or unit to create a survival shelter in your campsite.
ONE PERSON SURVIVAL SHELTER due to Covid requirements. Design, materials and construction are the key
consideration areas for this event.
Use only natural material or something you would have on a day hike bag.
The activity judges will review to see if it will keep you out of the elements.
Considerations include: This is a temporary shelter that must be able to be reinforced as necessary if natural materials
used and circumstances required more than one night or design that incorporates tarps, ponchos, etc. as waterproof
shelter cover (example). Shelter types will be discussed in detail in Shelter workshop.
