With many Scouts and
Leaders arriving and checking in at the same time, we need your
help. We want to make this the easiest, fastest, and most
efficient check in process you’ve ever experienced. We will have
all the staff available in the parking lot and at various
check-in points to assist wherever needed.
Check-In Process
Arrive between
1:30 and 2:00 pm with your entire Unit ready to check in.
Please, no sooner or later.
A member of the
staff will be your campsite host and will assist and lead your
Unit throughout the entire check-in procedure. They will
provide a packet of information related to your stay.
Move into your
campsite with your gear and do only the essential set-up. You
should have time to return to your site and finish setting up
later. Only one vehicle per Unit will be allowed to go past
the parking lot and into your campsite. Unit trailers are
allowed and can be parked within the confines of your site.
As soon as
possible, change into your swimming suits, grab a towel, put
on shoes, and begin your check-in tour of Tesomas. (You can
come to camp wearing your swimsuit to save time.) Be sure to
have all the medical forms and medications along with you. You
should be able to present a copy of everyone’s form for
Tesomas to keep in alphabetical order at the medical re-check
station. Have the medical forms of Scouts taking medications
separate.
Move to the
Dining Hall for your seating assignments and dining
orientation.
Next, move to
the Waterfront area for your swim tests. This is required for
anyone to enter the Waterfront area during your stay. Each
camper will receive a “buddy tag” which must be used to enter
the Waterfront.
Return to your
campsite, change clothes for the evening meal (Scout uniform),
and finish your campsite set-up.
Visit our
Advancement Help Desk at 4:00 pm if you have questions
regarding what advancement opportunities your Scouts should
take.
If your Unit needs to arrive early, please contact the Camp
Director, Scott Domino at 715-581-6315 or
campdirector2@tesomas.com to get approval. Units that
arrive early are on their own until check-in starts on Sunday.

At least one Leader
from every Unit will need to attend the Leader’s meeting right
after supper and before the Opening Campfire in the Program
Center on Sunday. |
Pre-Camp Swim Test Check-In Option
Due to the tremendous success of this program, we will once
again offer the option to complete a swim test prior to your
arrival. By participating, you will save valuable campsite setup
time and will make it easier to do individual Troop activities
before you come to camp.
- Samoset Council troops will have the option to complete
their swim tests through your district in the spring. A
trained staff will certify that each Scout and Scouter
completing the test meets the requirements for their skill
level.
- Non-Samoset troops may also complete swim tests prior to
camp. A BSA Lifeguard or Red Cross Lifeguard must administer
the tests and certify the results. If you choose this option,
you must contact the Camp Director, Scott Domino to receive
approval, complete instructions, and appropriate forms.
- For questions or Non-Samoset approval, contact Scott
Domino at 715-581-6315 or
campdirector2@tesomas.com.
