Troop 167 Summer Camp Information

All the scouts in our troop are strongly encouraged to attend summer camp.

Not only is it fun, but scouts will earn Merit Badges, bond with their fellow scouts, and younger scouts can get a good jump on their requirements toward First Class. We need you to sign up as soon as possible. We need a rough headcount now, so the summer camp staff can plan accordingly!

Camp Discounts:

$25 Brother Discount, each scout
$25 Scout attending a second week of camp in Council

If financial aid is needed, council does have campership money available to pay typically half of the camp fee. See your Scoutmaster or Committee Chair for more information, or contact Council directly. Council would like all applications in by April 16th.

Camp Babcock-Hovey
July 15-20
Cost: $300 (includes camp T-shirt, and food for one meal cooked in the campsite)

This is an ideal summer camp for younger scouts, featuring a dining hall for meals, merit badge sessions in the morning and a Tenderfoot to First class program in the afternoon. There will also be the opportunity to earn the Toten' Chip or Fireman's Chit, as well as one of a few additional merit badges as well. Order scouts are also welcome, and will be able to plan their own afternoon program.

Note: The price goes up by $25 after May 21st.

Camp Massawepie
July 22-28
Cost: $310

This is our camp for older scouts, featuring patrol cooking, merit badge sessions and perhaps an adventure trek or two. There is a Tenderfoot to First class program as well, for scouts needing the requirements. While we discourage first year scouts from attending this session, exceptions can be made for scouts that can't make Babcock-Hovey, or who prefer to be with an older Sibling.
Note: The price goes up by $25 after May 15th.
