Mount Baker Council Cub Scout Day Camp

2024 Theme: Outdoor Adventure!!
 

Cub Scout day camps are organized by the Mount Baker Council, Boy Scouts of America and conducted by volunteers from the local area. Day camps are for youth entering the 1st-5th grades in the following school year. Those entering the 1st grade must be accompanied by their parent or guardian during their participation. Although individual Cub Scouts are able to participate in any day camp, it is strongly encouraged for Cub Scouts to attend with their friends and adults from the same den or Pack.

Day camps are organized by adult volunteer leadership who were trained and certified at one of the Boy Scouts of America's National Camping Schools. Day camps are also supported by numerous adult staff volunteers. Youth Helpers (ages 11-17) may also support the day camp program by assisting the Cub Scouts throughout the camp. Each Pack is expected to provide adult volunteers at a ratio of 1 adult for every 3 Cub Scouts. Each Pack will designate a dedicated Pack Camping Coordinator to coordinate online registration, help the pack supply enough volunteer leaders, and to promote Cub Scout participation.

A variety of different activities are offered to allow participants to experience outdoor programs for Cub Scouts. Camps will provide 14-16 hours of program time. Most camps include activities based on STEM, nature, shooting sports, and games. Adult volunteers make up the nucleus of the day camp staff by volunteering in positions to lead specific programs, support the general operation, or by managing a den of Cub Scouts throughout their time at camp.
