Driver & Auto Insurance Information Needed
Driver & Auto Insurance Information Needed
Each year, it
is necessary for all Cub Scout Packs to collect basic auto insurance
and driver's license information for each parent. We are required by
the Boy Scouts of America to file "travel permits" with the local
Bucks County Council for each trip where scouts are being
transported, by car, to a Cub Scout activity. The upcoming camping
trip is an example. The purpose of the travel permit is to not only
ensure the safety of our scouts but also places those who are
driving under the BSA "umbrella" insurance policy should a car
accident occur. It does not replace your primary auto insurance but
acts as a secondary. Folks who do not submit the necessary
information will not be covered under the umbrella policy and will
assume full risk should something unfortunate happen.
We will need
to collect the following from each family during Saturday's Car Wash
- please come prepared with the information:
1. Kind, year
& make of vehicles used to "potentially" transport scouts
2. Owner's
name
3. Driver's
License #
4. Insurance
- Liability per person
5. Insurance
- Liability per accident
6. Insurance
- Property damage
Item's # 4, 5
& 6 can be found on your auto insurance policy
Camping
Supplies
All scouts and adult leaders/chaperones should "Be
Prepared" and bring the following on all scout camping
trips:
1. mess kit,
2. pocket knife,
3. "working" flashlight,
4. camping-style eating utensils (E.g., "spork"),
5. re-useable hot/cold cup and
6. re-useable water bottle

The pack is no longer purchasing, nor providing, plates,
cups, plastic silverware, etc. for the trips as it is
not environmentally responsible nor cost effective.
