Cub Scout Day Camps are adventurous times for graduating Tigers, Wolfs, Bears and first year Webelos.  It is a week of fun, advancement and adventure at a camp close to home. 

Each day's program runs from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and is filled with a variety of exciting activities including swimming, boating, archery, nature, crafts, games, sports and advancement opportunities. A different theme each session keeps the program interesting for those boys who attend for more than one week. Boys are constantly doing something new in camp.

Early Drop Off & Late Pick-up
The convenience of dropping off your Cub as early as 8:00 AM and picking him up as late as 5:30 PM will be available for all day camps this summer. The cost in addition to the day camp fee is $30 per week for early drop off and $30 per week for late pick-up. Please check the box on the registration form if you plan to take advantage of this service.

Send a Den and Save Money!
If eight boys from the same Pack come to one of the day camps and an approved adult leader attends all of the camp with them, the adult leader’s Cub goes to camp at no charge and the remaining seven boys each receive a $25 discount off of their camp fee!

Family Opportunities
Parent volunteers are needed at all day camps to ensure the camp’s success. Parents are trained and serve as assistants and guides. As an incentive for parents who attend a one day training course and serve a full week at day camp, their son attends camp free of charge. We also offer care for younger siblings. Check the line on the application, above, to receive additional information.
