This year the National Scout Shop will be setting up a tent so you can purchase your advancement pins, patches, and, loops right in camp!

Webelos and AOL Cubs should plan on pitching their own tents or staying in lean-tos and learning to plan and prepare their own meals in true pack-in-pack-out style. If they build their own shelter and spend the night in it to fulfill requirements, they can earn a special award from Gopher!

For those who stay the night, Sunday is an open program free-for-all from 9:15am to 12:00pm. If you wanted to participate in a core program but couldn't fit it into your schedule on Saturday, this is your chance!
