Hello muddah, Hello faddah!

 

R will be at Boy Scout camp July 5-12, at Camp Meriwether on the Oregon Coast.

C will be attending with him for a couple days at the beginning of the week; I'll close out the week with him.

At flag ceremony each day at camp, the troop staff does a mail call. Given that this is R's first full-fledged BOY SCOUT camp, I'm posting how people can surprise him with a piece of mail at camp. It's always a surprise and a sort of a badge of honor to get mail while at camp. Mostly because everyone knows the mail had to be sent almost before camp began in order to arrive on time.

So, if you're interested in dropping him a note of encouragement or connection, here's how you do it:

[MAILING ADDRESS REDACTED - TIME EXPIRED]

To arrive by Friday of camp week, you'll need to mail your last item by Monday's early post. In other words, if it doesn't go into the mail by July 7, you'll probably miss him. My suggestion is just a quick postal card or a short note/letter.

I'm sending a small care package, hopefully timed to arrive before I get there.
