Summer Camp!

The weather is getting warmer and it’s time to think… Summer Camp!

The 2015 Summer Camp Information Packet has all you need to know to get started on registering and choosing merit badges.

Registration is ONLINE this year! There is a separate form for Scouts, Adults and Merit Badges. See the information packet for registration links.

Note that we currently have only 75 spots for boys, with no guarantees we can get more at this point. If you are certain you want to go to summer camp, please register ASAP. But only register if you are going to pay!  Mr. Nicolellis will collect fees, at upcoming Troop meetings.

Scouts need Medical form “C” for camp, so start setting doctors/doc-in-a-box appointments.
Adults also need Medical form “C” and DHS clearance (if not already obtained last year).

Welcome

Lord Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Boy Scouts, once said “Teach Scouts not how to get a living, but how to live’.  Since Scouting began over 100 years ago, the program has been continuously updated, but the fundamentals remain: to develop future leaders by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun. Troop 889 offers a year-round adventure-based program designed to offer and encourage effective character, citizenship, and fitness training for boys age 11-17.In addition to camping, Scouts are able to earn advancement and merit badge awards by learning and demonstrating skills within a particular area of study.
