Providing Youth a Summer Full of Adventure
Scouts, get ready to MOVE!!! Coming this summer, we will explore “Things that Move!” These camps are designed to engage scouts while allowing them opportunities to complete some of their elective requirements. They will also be working on a service project that is approved by you. Our program consists of activities, crafts, games, and exploring our natural areas with lots of fresh air and sunshine!
- Children in First grade through fifth can participate in Day Camp.
- Tigers (children in 1st grade) may attend Day Camp and are required to have an adult partner with them at camp.
