In Step 2, the leader reads the activity checkpoints that that apply to all activities listed under any category (ex. Camping Activities).  In Step 3, the leader reads the checkpoints for the individual activity (ex. backpacking). 

For ease of use the activity checkpoints for each category will be included on the activity pages so you only need to print one more checklist!
