What is expected of adults while on the trip?
Girls and adults do not sleep together, even mother-daughter pairs. Adults pay the same fees as girls. Adults participate fully in the event or activity unless stated otherwise on the permission slip. For example some swimming events require land watchers, in which case the adult pays the reduced fee. Some events require a certain adult-child ratio, and we count on all adults who signed up to participate. On the trip adults supervise 2-4 camp kapers. The adult does not do the kaper, the adult finds the girls and the girls do the kaper. We expect adults to already have basic cooking, cleaning, and camping skills. If this is not the case, we recommend the “basic troop camping” course from the council office. Call the office at (408) 287-4170 for more information. We have written up step-by-step directions for most kapers. If you have already taken the basic troop camping course, but have never been camping before, it is ok to attend High Adventure events.
