Medical Forms
BSA requires that each scout have a current medical form on file with the troop. They used to be valid for three years, but now they are required yearly. Normally each scout gets a physical in connection with attending Summer Camp, (can't go without it). You may download the form from the BSA website. These forms are kept by the Scoutmaster and are also required for camping events.
Sections A, B, and C are required.
