Conservation Service Day Camporee

• Location: Andersen Scout Camp
• Date: 10/2-10/4/2026

Returning again this year is the popular Conservation Service Day Camporee! This unique experience is provided in partnership with the Wisconsin US Fish and Wildlife Service, and gives participants the opportunity to facilitate prairie seed collection and prairie restoration. 

Rather than offering traditional camporee activities, this event focuses on the service component that Scouts may need for awards, rank advancement, or Merit Badges. Attendees are bussed off site from Andersen Scout Camp on Saturday morning, and will return in the afternoon post-service project to enjoy a relaxing afternoon of Troop programs and multi-unit fellowship.

Participants will need to complete the US Fish and Wildlife Waiver and bring it to the event, which can be found here. Attendees will not be able to participate in the service without this waiver. Paper copies will be provided as a contingency on Friday night when units check in.

Camporee #1

• Location: Phillippo Scout Camp
• Date: 10/2-10/4/2026

Camporee #2

• Location: Stearns Scout Camp
• Date: 10/9-10/11/2026

This year, the Activities Team is partnering up with the Camping team to offer two weekends of all-age fun in the fall! Fall Camporee is joining forces with two of the Spookyree events to promote units to attend with their partner Pack or Troop, or for families with youth of multiple ages.

Aside from the traditional Spookyree program for Cub Scout aged youth, we are trying a new format of program delivery this fall. Attending Troops will be strongly encourged to help facilitate skills/avtivity stations for the Cub Scouts for a portion of the day, while still being able to participate in traditional camporee activities. This is a great way to keep Scouts BSA youth engaged and excited about program, and gives them an opportunity to work with Cub Scouts at the event! Other activities will include shooting sports, climbing, field games/gaga, and more.

The skill stations that Troops will be encouraged to run include:

• Fire Building
• Yard Games/Relay Race
• Nature (ideas: tree rubbing, plant ID, LNT)
• Dutch Oven cooking
• Survival and Shelters
• Crafts
• First Aid

Troops will be notified prior to the event which skill they are being asked to share. We will also let you know what materials can be provided for you, and what you might need to bring.
