Pack 291 - Summer Camp

Summer Camp 2024 Information

Session Dates

We are in the process of determining a session for 2024. 

Camp Costs

• Youth (registered Scouts)

  • $220 each early bird rate if deposit and final payment are made on time

  • $245 each regular price otherwise

• Adults - $75 each

Notes:

• If you have multiple scouts attending from your family the first scout will be at the above price and a $25 discount per extra scout can be applied.

• New scouts registering with the pack in the spring (February thru June) are eligible for the early bird rate.

Financial assistance is available through the council's "campership" program. Details and the online application are available at the council's Campership Information page.

Payment Schedule

• Friday 3/22/2024 - A $50 non-refundable deposit per youth is required in order to reserve your spot at our chosen village(s).

• Friday 4/26/2024 - The $170 remaining balance for youth is due to guarantee the early bird rate.

• Sunday 6/30/2024 - The $75 adult payment is due as well as the remaining $25 youth balance if you did not make the early bird deadlines.

We will withhold the remaining youth and adult portions of the payment to the council until the last possible moment in order to be able to re-coup a portion of your payment in the event you need to cancel, but are asking for this payment in full as of 5/8 in order to keep record keeping simple.

Committee Note: The pack is required to make the remaining early bird you payment to the council by Sunday 5/15 and both the adult payments and the non-early bird remaining balances by Wednesday 6/29.

Cancellation Policy

Any payments made to the council are considered non-refundable, with a couple of limited exceptions. In some cases a deposit made can be shifted to a new registrant from our pack who has not yet paid. Should you be unable to attend camp after having paid fees, please see the current year's CSAC registration information for the cancellation policy.

Parent/Guardian Attendance

The council has rules about the ratio of adults-to-scouts that must be in attendance. Our pack has a policy that either:

a) A parent/guardian 18+ years old attends with their Scout OR

b) You make arrangements with another parent to be responsible for your child during the session

In addition to having the great experience of attending camp with your child, we don't want adult leaders to be put in a position of supervising others for an extended duration.

Please note that all adults attending camp will be required to complete (or renew) their Youth Protection Training certificate, which is an online course that takes about an hour or so and is good for two years. You can find information on completing that here: Youth Protection Training.

Village Assignments

We attempt to book Arrow of Light scouts in the Mountain Scouts Brigade, as that village is tent camping, has more rigorous hikes, and is a good transition as scouts look to cross over into Scouts BSA (formerly "Boy Scouts"). For other scouts, we attempt to book a single site to keep scouts together and rotate thru the available villages year over year.

2022 Assignments:

• We will likely either be in the Medieval Castle or Native American Village depending on availability and how many choose to attend.
