Summer Camp

We believe that Summer Camp – at Camp Parsons, one of the oldest and best Scout Camps in the world – is a key part of the Scouting experience.  There is no better camp value on the planet.

Our Troop usually attends Camp Parsons in the second or third week of July.  Check the Calendar for the currently scheduled summer camp.  This is  a general equipment list  Camp Parsons General Equipment list.  The actual list is sent yearly in June so check that for additions or changes.

Each year our Troop subsidizes as much as our fund raising allows. Last year each family paid the out-of-pocket cost of $200 plus transportation, $30, for a week at camp. On average, more than 80% of our Scouts go to camp each summer and many of our “Alumni” come back and serve as leaders for that week.
