2017 Summer Camp Survey

Post date: Feb 8, 2017 12:09:22 AM

The main purpose of troop summer camp is to work on Merit Badges that are needed to get the ranks of Star, Life, and Eagle. Troop Adult Leaders will hold classes for scouts so that the requirements are fulfilled.

The typical schedule for a day at summer camp is merit badge classes in the morning, and hiking or visiting vista points around the campsite in the afternoon. At night, scouts eat dinner and complete any homework required for their merit badges. In order for adult leaders to teach merit badges, they need become MB councilors by getting the YPT certificate in advance, and registering. For more details, please contact the merit badge coordinator.
