KP Duty



The learning of responsibility to the group is one the important aspects of scouting. Kitchen Police (KP) is a long standing tradition at scout camps. The Senior Patrol Leader creates a roster at the beginning of camp to assign boys to KP duty for every meal. Each boy in the troop gets a few turns at it.

If you have KP duty, you show up a little early and get the tables set up and then head out to line up with the Troop. The after meal duties are when the work kicks in. The KPs must bus, wipe, and clean the floor around the table where the Troop sits.

For the Troop 5 families following the blog, this means your son knows how to do such things.
