PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU SELECT A MERIT BADGE CLASS AS YOU ENTER THE PARTICIPANT INFORMATION

Scouts may get up to two nights of camping (Friday and Saturday) at this beautiful, forested scout camp near Lake Castaic (about a one-hour drive), or come for the day on Saturday.

Scouts will camp and cook with their troops since this event is in place of the Spring camporee.  Individual scouts may come for the day for merit badges classes but we cannot accommodate single campers.  If coming for the day, you must bring your own lunch.

When signing up for the camp out, under each Scout's name you can indicate ONE all-day merit badge or TWO half-day merit badges.  Classes will fill up fast so sign up early to get your first choices!
