Cub Scout Camp Overview

Welcome to the start of your amazing Cub Scout camping experience!  Every Scout loves experiencing all that Scouting provides, and what a better way to experience that than at camp.  We have so many options to fit every Scout: Cub Advancement camps for the Scout that wants to camp in the traditional way, Mi Campcation for the Scouting family that would like to experience camp together at their own pace, Arrow of Light camp for those going into 5th grade, and Day Camp for those Cubs that would like the camp experience without the overnight.  These options are offered at a variety of camps around our council.  Choose a type, choose a location, and sign up today!

Cub Camp FAQ

Yes!  Your whole family is welcome to join us during our MiCampcation weeks.

If you are attending camp as a leader and plan to supervise children that are not your own, then yes, you need to be registered with Scouting America.  If you are attending with your scout solely as their legal guardian, then you do not.

The following forms must be turned in when you arrive at camp (you will not get these forms returned to you):

  • Central Registry Clearance Form
  • Youth Protection Certificate
  • Health Forms Parts A&B

Adults who do not bring these forms will not be allowed to stay at camp.

All camps are bring your own tent.

Some camps have a limited supply they can lend out, so please contact your Camp Director if you are in need of a tent.

There are two ways sleeping arrangements can be made at the Cub Scout level:

  • Scouts & Legal Guardian can share a tent
  • Two Scouts in a tent per Youth Protection guidelines

Individuals requiring the use of a CPAP or similar machine will need to have a rechargeable battery and power converter – these are not provided by the camp.  Vehicles will NOT be allowed in the campsite to serve as a power source.  Arrangements can be made with our Camp Directors to pick up, charge, and deliver your battery as needed. An alternative option for campers is to bring a small, quiet generator – fuel is not supplied by the camp.

Either!  We encourage Packs to register as a unit for the Cub Advancement and Arrow of Light camps, but you are welcome to register individually.  However, if you do register individually, we encourage you to reach out to your Camp Director to ensure your unit is placed in the same campsite.

Yes!  Arrow of Light Scouts can attend our Cub Advancement Camps, but the focus will be on advancements from Tigers – Webelos.
