Aquia District 2021 Fall Camporee

On behalf of the National Capital Area Council (NCAC), Aquia District Camporee Staff, we request you to participate in this year’s Fall Camporee at Curtis Park during the weekend of October 15-17, 2021. It is our hope that this Camporee will mark the reopening of Scouts BSA district- and council-level events for your units following a year and a half of COVID restrictions.

This year’s Fall Camporee theme, “Back-to-Scouting Basics,” is intended to allow all of our Scouts BSA, Sea Scout, and Venturing units the opportunity to spend a weekend focusing on basic skills that all scouts should master as part of their scouting journey.

Registration: Units will register online at the right side of this page.

Registration will close on October 12 15, 2021 at 11:59 PM EDT.

Fees: Fees are $25 per scout and $20 per adult.

Refund Policy: NCAC Cancellation Policy: 

There are no refunds for this event and the fees cannot be credited toward another event. This policy is true for any event with fees of $25.00 or less per participant/registrant unless stated otherwise. Please note cold or wet weather is not a valid reason to cancel the Fall Camporee.
