Scout-2nd Class Camping

Camping with activities targeted for Scouts who have just joined the Troop with an emphasis on requirements for Scout through 2nd Class rank. Our goal is to get all scouts to “scout rank”, as well as to help any other scouts working on some of the lower ranks. Older scouts – this is an opportunity to provide leadership!

Please pay through the Troop’s website: https://squareup.com/store/troop158va/ (Site to be set up shortly)

Parents of Scouts are welcome to join for the day and observe the Scouting America program. If interested in spending the night we will require you to join the Troop as a Scout Master, Committee Member, or Scouter Reserve, complete the required Youth Protection Training, and undergo a background check.

Tents will be provided if you need one.

Park at the Camp Store if visiting.
