Cub Scout Resident Camp

JOIN US - June 28 - July 1, 2026

Pack Leaders – Wolves – Bears – Webelos- Arrow of Light

Get ready for an exciting summer adventure!

Cub Scout Resident Camp is a program for Wolfs, Bears, Webelos & Arrow of Light (entering 2nd through 5th grades in the fall). It provides an opportunity for Cub Scouts and their adult leaders to spend quality time together working on advancement, enjoying recreational activities, and learning about camping. Your Pack will enjoy the familiarity of the Scouts in their unit while camping overnight. During the day they meet new Scouts and build new friendships as they are divided into dens by rank for the days’ activities. These dens will stay together for the program session and rotate to all stations together. All program stations incorporate age-progressive programming and will work on specific requirements for each rank level.

Can't come as a pack? Scouts can also come with a parent or their family! Consider Cub Scout Resident Camp for your family's summer vacation!

Campership Information

*Cub Scouts can earn their way to camp by raising funds through the Council's Spring Fundraiser and Popcorn sales. For Illowa Council Scouts, we provide an additional discount for units that meet their Friends of Scouting goal. We also offer 'camperships' to qualifying Illowa Council Scouts. These 'camperships' are scholarships awarded to those who have special circumstances that might otherwise keep a Scout from attending camp. Please use the link below to fill out the digital form and submit prior the the deadline. Paper Campership applications will not be considered.

We try to accommodate those with special dietary needs while they are at camp. It is essential for us to know in advance of your Scout's needs. Please let your unit's Tentaroo admin know what these might be so it can be added to their registration.

Camperships for Cub Scout Resident Camp need to be submitted online by March 1, 2026.
