How Do I Register My Scout?

Cub Scout Day Camp provides fun and adventure in the outdoors for packs and dens. French Creek Council Day camp is a 5 day program, supported by trained volunteer leadership, at an approved site, during the day.

When selecting RANK in your registration, you should use the den that the Scout will be entering for the 2025-2026 school year. 

• Tiger (entering 1st grade)
• Wolf (entering 2nd grade)
• Bear (entering 3rd grade) 
• Webelos (entering the 4th grade)
• Arrow of Light (entering 5th grade)

The Early Bird cost of Cub Scout Day camp is $105. (After June 2nd, the cost increases to $120 per Scout) Fees include t-shirt and activity patch.

Volunteer Opportunities

Adult volunteers are needed to serve as den walkers and as station volunteers every day of the week. Station volunteers will work with the camp administration team to determine where they best fit to help run a station.  Station volunteers attend camp for free and get a discount for their Scout to attend.  Station Volunteers must be a registered Scouter with a current YPT. You will not be walking with your Scout. Den Walkers take on the responsibility of a “den” and lead them from station to station.  The den walkers are also free but do not receive a discount for their Scout to attend. Den walkers are required to have YPT but do not need to be registered.

Health Forms

Scouting America has established minimum standards for providing medical information prior to participating in various activities. Those standards are offered in one three-part medical form. Parts A and B are to be completed annually by all BSA unit members. Please make a copy of your health forms and your insurance card. They will not be returned at the completion of Day Camp. Please submit these forms when you arrive at Day Camp on the first day. Please do not send BSA Health Forms to the council office.

• Offers character development, citizenship training, and personal fitness.
• Meets individual needs and interests by offering a meaningful and educational Scouting program.

Adult Volunteers

Per Guide to Safe Scouting: (Effective September 1, 2023)

Two registered adult leaders 21 years of age or over are required at all Scouting activities, including all meetings. There must be a registered female adult leader 21 years of age or over in every unit serving females. A registered female adult leader 21 years of age or over must be present for any activity involving female youth or female adult program participants. Notwithstanding the minimum leader requirements, age and program-appropriate supervision must always be provided.

Adult volunteers must be registered in the unit they are serving. Registration as a merit badge counselor position does not meet this requirement.
