WILL I WORK ON MY CUB SCOUT RANK?
Most Camp programs are based on a Cub Scout Rank. Many of the activities that are fun provide opportunities to qualify toward rank advancement. These give campers a head start for advancement in their handbooks for their upcoming rank. The camp program focuses on age-appropriate activities, so it is very important that we know what grade the Scout will be entering in the fall of 2023. While at Camp, Scouts who are:
- Entering 1st Grade will work on Tiger (Adult must attend)
- Entering 2nd Grade will work on Wolf (Can attend without an adult)
- Entering 3rd Grade will work on Bear (Can attend without an adult)
- Entering 4th Grade will work on Webelos (Can attend without an adult)
- Entering 5th Grade will work on Arrow of Light (Can attend without an adult)
