Detailed information about Twilight Camp

Twilight camp is a unique summer camp program that allows parents and Scouts (ranks Tiger to Arrow of Light) to participate in outdoor programs together without parents taking significant time out of work.  This camp is designed for Scouts and their parents to experience the adventure of Scouting together.   This camp also prepares families for extended resident camp experiences at Cub Scout Adventure Camp at J. Warren Cutler Scout Reservation or Cub Scout Resident Camp at Babcock-Hovey.

What is Twilight Camp? 

Twilight Camp is Seneca Waterway's premier “Day Camp” for Tigers, Wolfs, Bears, Webelos and Arrow of Light.  It is conducted by the council under certified leadership at an approved site.  The camp is offered in the early evening hours and does not include any overnight activities.  Scouts will attend on all 4 evenings accompanied by their parent or cub scout leader, but will return home to sleep.

When is Twilight Camp?  

It is on Monday August 16 through Thursday, August 19, 2021.  The program starts by 6p m and generally is concluded by 8:30 pm.  From 5:30 pm-6 pm, Packs will check in at the registration table each night to get wrist bands and their daily itinerary.  Packs will have a chance to gather their scouts and be ready to start activities by 6pm.

What kind of activities does Twilight Camp offer? 

Twilight Camp is organized around a theme – this year's theme is “Prehistoric Panic”!!!   Each night there are 3 or more activities.  Activities may include things like wood craft, construction projects, Scout skills and lore, and of course games.  Popular events from past years have included archery, water bottle rockets, obstacle courses, and a rope bridge.

How do I sign up for Twilight Camp? 

We ENCOURAGE Packs to register as a group.  We would like to keep everyone together!  One person, typically a Pack Leader or Pack Camp Coordinator, will sign Scouts up for this event.  You'll let them know that you are interested in attending and will register everyone at once.  That coordinator will give you a registration form to fill out and return it to them as well as give you details of the event.
