Pack Camping

 

Look to this page as your link to the many different Cub Scout camping and outdoor adventure experiences. We hope to provide you with descriptions of all of the camping experiences available to cub scouts sponsored by the nearby Miami Valley and Dan Beard Boy Scout Councils. You will find links to flyers of upcoming events; directions to camps; descriptions and past experiences of camps; what to bring; and maybe a story about past camping adventures.

We realize no cub scout can attend every possible camping event. A cub scout in the Pack is presented with many different camping opportunities. Parents, Scouts you might ask any of the following;


  • Which is the best?
  • Which is the right one to go to?
  • Are any of the campouts required?
  • If I can only go to one, which one should it be??
  • Fun With Son?
  • Adventure Camp?
  • Jamborees?
  • Camporees?
  • Canoe trips?
  • Zoo and aquarium sleepovers?
  • Crossovers?
  • Day camps?
  • Family camps?
  • Basketball and football camps?
  • How will I know which one is best for me???
  • Are they all free?
  • How much do they cost?
  • What do I need to bring?
  • Can I bring my gameboy?
  • Do I have to bring my parents?
  • What are we going to do all day?
  • Is it boring stuff?
  • Is it true that cub scouts never sleep on campouts?
  • Is this where master jedi warriors train?
  • Was that a bear or just my dad snoring??
  • Why did that raccoon eat my snickers bar?
  • Do we get a patch or tshirt for doing this?
  • Can I count this for any cub scout achievement?
  • Is this going to hurt?
  • Are we there yet?
  • When can we go home???
