November 4-5-6 Annually almost 1000 youth and leaders attend the Virginia United Methodist Men’s Scouting Fellowship at the Virginia Methodist Conference Center in Blackstone, Virginia. The event is open to any Boy Scouts and Girl Scout units. Those attending enjoy the opportunity to work on projects that will lead to rank advancement, while practicing traditional scouting games and activities in a camping atmosphere. The following pages make up the “leaders guide” and contains information about the various activities, badges and general rules. Please print out all the pages and send in the pre-registration form along with your deposit to insure your units participation.

Each troop should have current medical forms with their tour permits. Also please make a list of anybody with special needs and seal in an envelope then write your troop number and council name on it. Turn this in at registration. This will only be opened if someone from your troop comes to the first aid station. This way the health officer has the information and can take the proper actions before a scoutmaster arrives.
