Fall Camporee

Camporee programs may include contests and demonstrations of outdoor Scouting skills as well as campfires, games, and field events. These activities can show Scouting at its best. Camporees can help councils and districts meet part of their goals. They stimulate overnight camping; they help units attain part of the minimum annual 10 days and nights of camping, and they help prepare units for long-term camping.

UPDATE: Get Ready for a Spooky Scouting Camporee Adventure!

Hello Troops,

Get ready for a weekend filled with fun, friendship, and a little bit of spooky fun.

We have some exciting news to share: we're adding extra activities to Saturday for those who are camping! First off, to celebrate Halloween week, we invite all units to decorate their campsites with a spooky theme. Secondly, we will have a Dutch Oven Dessert contest on Saturday evening after dinner. We'll be judging the decorations Saturday afternoon/ evening. We will be judging the desserts and pumpkin carvings on Saturday evening. There will also be a campfire program on Saturday evening, so please plan out a tasteful troop skit or song that is approved by your Scoutmaster. Pumpkin carving must be done at the activity in the time allotted. Please do not carve your pumpkins ahead of the csmporee. We ask that all decorations and entries be completely Scout designed and Scout built. We are looking forward to see the creativity of our guest Scouts in their campfire entries designs, carvings, and cooking!

We can't wait to see your spooky creations!

Yours in Scouting,

Eric Kneeland
