Contacting Participants During Encampment

If something arises and you need to contact a encampment participant during encampment emergency communications can be directed to the Encampment Command Post. This number will be distributed to the local unit commanders once we arrive at the base.  

If you have news to relay to your son or daughter please use the Command Post phone number so we can ensure that Chaplain or other services are available if necessary.
