The primary purpose of Family Island is to provide families of unit leaders the opportunity to spend time in camp.
It offers opportunity for Scouting families, to enjoy and become familiar with camping facilities that are available to their children in the Scouting program.
The Northern Star Council Camping Committee has developed a policy that provides the families of unit leaders who are in camp the first opportunity to make a reservation at family camp. Families with a registered scout are given next priority to make reservations at family camp.
An outline of the reservation process is listed below.
There are three distinct time periods when reservations can be made for 2020 Tomahawk Family Island.
