Chainsaw Safety Course

Posted About Seven Months Ago

For any future wood-cutting volunteers at Camp Robert Drake, the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America requires that any persons felling trees more than 3 inches in diameter must be approved by the camp ranger, be 18 years of age, and be properly trained.

Former Camp Ranger Gene Mochel will provide a Chain Saw Safety Training course on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at Camp Robert Drake. The course will begin at 9:00 am. Please bring any chain saw equipment and safety gear that you can for the training course. If you do not have equipment, wood-cutter Gene will provide tools and gear needed. Please note that the purpose of this course is to provide training for future wood-cutting volunteers at Camp Drake. Please bring a copy of a current health history. This training will require physical stamina in wood-cutting, log hauling, and limb removal. This course has room for only 8 students.
