     Webelos will also be able to participate in some specially-designated Boy Scout program events.

8) Participants coming only on Saturday need to bring food to eat and non-alcoholic beverages to drink. 
    Because of FW Health Department regulations (food permits), we've not yet been able to secure food vendors.      
 
9) Every attendee is to wear an appropriately colored Camporee wrist band. 
    (Please make certain everyone registers for the event to get their wrist bands.)  
    
10) If you know you need to come and go during Camporee, please let us know. (You should park in the outside lot.)
 
FOR THOSE WHO WILL BE CAMPING:
 
1) Each vehicle arriving Friday night or Saturday morning should have on the driver's side dashboard a sheet of paper clearly indicating the unit's program level (CS or BS) and district number. (Example: CS District 21 or BS District 21) 
This will speed up entering the raceway and getting to the correct camping ground.  
 
2) Once the unit has set up camp, a designee from the unit should come to the registration booth to submit a final roster and pick up its wrist  bands,T-shirts, and patches.
