Still Providing Youth a Summer Full of Adventure – Just Virtually!
From crafting and skit performances to learning about the world, our summer camp stands out when it comes to preparing kids for life and older Scouting programs – The new 2020 – Cub Scout Day Camp in a box!
What is Cub Scout Day Camp in a box?
Each week campers will receive a box with activities that explore different countries around the world. Through online Zoom sessions Campers will have an opportunity to engage with other Scouts and staff as they learn about Vikings, knights, African music, Chinese fables, and much more! Every Friday there will be a virtual tour of a country or activity from a country ; during which campers will turn their box into a travelling suitcase that they can store their treasures in, decorated with items from around the world.
- Children in grades kindergarten through fifth can participate.
- Our Virtual Day Camps are five days of online activities. Most of these activities take place online through zoom with a Day Camp Staff Member.
- Our weeks are themed. Weeks 1 and 5 visits Europe, Weeks 2 and 6 visits Africa, Weeks 3 and 7 visits Asia, and Weeks 4 and 8 visits the Americas.
Each box will have a coupon for 1 activity at the August or December Cub Scout Shooting Sports Day (a $15 value!) If you sign up for 3 camps you can get 3 coupons and get all your Shooting Sports Activities at no additional cost!
NEW – We added some in person Cub Scout Swim and Shoot sessions at McGimsey Scout Park in July. This is an opportunity for Scouts to Swim, Shoot Archery, BB and Slingshots. This is a limited event and only running for 3 hours a day for 2 days each (9-noon). This event is run by Camp Staff, though parents are invited to volunteer to help move small groups from one station to another. Please register on the links below to reserve your spot at our Swim and Shoot event.
