Four Patrol repair kits |
|
|
Each kit should contain sharpening stone, string, thin wire, needles, thread, safety pins. |
|

Four sugar dispensers (one per patrol) |
|
5. |
Four sets of salt and pepper shakers (one set per patrol) |
|
6. |
Four laundry buckets (one per patrol) for washing clothes with toilet plunger per bucket (use this for soapy water). In the past we have found that large plastic 5-gallon paint buckets work as the soapy laundry bucket. Clean water washing can be done in the buckets provided in the Basic Patrol Equipment Package (No. 27084 above) |
|
7. |
Four waterproof match containers with matches (one per patrol) |
|
8. |
Eight large aluminum pots for heating water |
|
|
Following the three-pot method of washing dishes, we need two additional aluminum pots per patrol (one with warm water and soap, one with clear hot water, one with sanitizer tablets). The third aluminum pot is in the Basic Patrol Equipment Package. |
|
9. |
Eight scouring pads (two per patrol) or copper wire with soap-processed cleaning cloth |

|
11. |
Handi Wipes for patrols |
|
12. |
Paper towels for patrols |

Extra garbage bags for patrols |
|
|
Note: Containing garbage inside the troop camp site can become a problem. We can help the Scouts by providing large heavy-duty black plastic bags from the grocery store. After each meal, the troop trash bag must be removed from the troop campsite. ASM-Quartermasters and the Troop Quartermaster will provide oversight on maintaining a clean troop campsite. |
|

Troop bulletin board (posted at the gateway for: (1) tracking progress on earning all the Activity segments, (2) Scouts to show who their buddies are during the day at the jamboree, and (3) troop announcements. |
|
20. |
Lanterns for patrols with extra batteries (note, there is only one troop lantern provided in the Basic Troop Equipment package) |
|
21. |
Materials for gateways |
|
|
Note: Study Appendix Q in the Troop Leader Guide Book on “guy wire detail” to ensure your gateway is secure and will not tip over under high winds. |
|
22. |
Additions to Troop repair kit (screwdrivers, pliers, duct tape, bow saw, tent repair materials like sealer, light wire, cord, etc.) |
|
23. |
Eight “Jamboards” (two per patrol) for the propane stoves (see Troop Leader Guide, Appendix U on page 86). Two “jamboards” are made from one five-foot, one inch by four inch pine board. The jamboards hold the two propane stoves together and prevent them from tipping over. Drill holes per Appendix U. |
