Merit Badge Schedule • Merit Badge Prerequisites • Medical Form
Each summer the Troop attends a week of summer camp during the end of June or beginning of July. Funding is through fundraising events and/or payments to Troop prior to summer camp. Camp is six nights long; it starts on Sunday and ends on Saturday. The Troop encourages all boys in the Troop to attend summer camp. It gives the boys memories that will last a lifetime. Camp is also a great time to earn merit badges, learn new skills for rank, and try new things (muck hike, archery, climbing wall, etc).
