Important Day Camp Information
We are looking forward to getting together this summer to have fun. Safety is our top priority and we will be following all local and state guidelines to make sure our camps are safe for our scouts.
We have extended the deadline of early registration for Day Camp to May 29th. That gives everyone a chance to still register for camp closer to the new dates.
Some of our camps are changing locations and moving to later in the summer. Make sure to bookmark the council's day camp page for real time updates to our camps: https://www.nega-bsa.org/cs-twi-stem-cmp
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to our council's day camp staff advisor Phil Nichols at phillip.nichols@scouting.org
Camp Card Selling Deadline Extension
Thank you for all you do to impact young lives in our community! We realize that the current situation with Coronavirus is affecting your unit meeting schedule. With that in mind, we wanted to extend the deadline for the full commission for the camp card sale to Thursday, June 11th. This will give you more time to distribute the cards and will allow for the Scouts to have more time to sell. We will have a location for this event in the coming weeks or you can contact us at 770-962-2105 or Michael.valenzuela@scouting.org or Phillip.nichols@scouting.org, if you cannot make it that night.
Good luck for a great sale! Let us know how we can help.
Challenging Times
Leaders, during these challenging times, I encourage you to consider catching up on your training.
Remember that you can log onto My.Scouting.Org and find a personalized on-line training program for your leadership position.
Also remember that many of you DO need to catch up and re-take Youth Protection Training.
Finally, please consider both Wood Badge for adults and National Youth Leadership Training for Youth later this year. Both of these programs are excellent leadership training programs. Registration information can still be found on-line at https://www.nega-bsa.org/Training
Woodbadge has been delayed which is an opportunity for those who have not yet signed up. See the flyer at: 2020-Summer-Wood-Badge-Flyer-pdf
As the world changes around us, we need to continue building strong leaders for our nation, communities, and local Scout units.
Go Scouts !
