Camporee Details
An enemy camp is holding our firewood for ransom and agreed to release it to the spy team who can best demonstrate superior scout skills to overcome a series of patrol challenges. The spy teams (patrols) will earn points at each patrol challenge event, with additional points earned for patrols who perform skits at the evening campfire. This event is designed for Scouts BSA Troops, Venturing Crews or Explorer Posts.
The Camporee consists of two major events: a Patrol Challenge of several stations, and an Adventure Choice period for Scouts to explore challenging “High Adventure” program activities (additional fees apply). Each Unit will have an assigned period for each event, so that everyone will have equal opportunity for full participation.
All participants must register and pay the Camporee Fee online thru this registration page. The Camporee fee is $24 each (all Youth and Adults) and includes all campsite and facility support costs. REGISTRATION CLOSES AT 7:00 PM, MARCH 22, 2020.
Adventure Choice Activities are optional. Each participant may choose one Activity. Registration and payment for all Adventure Choice Activities are also processed thru this website. Adult participation in the Adventure Choice activities is free, but registration is still required.
We highly recommend that one adult from each unit coordinate the registration.
Payment may be made with a credit/debit card or electronic check transaction. You may open a registration and save it/put it "on hold" to gather more information before going back and making payment.
Please download and distribute the Camporee Leaders Guide using the link on this page. This is where you will find all the details you need to know.
URGENT REQUEST: Youth volunteers ranked Star and higher are being sought to run the Patrol Challenge stations. Have your Unit Adult Advisor notify CD Charles Thornton at scouterchalis@gmail.com.
