Event Description

This year, Troop 54 will attend summer camp at Camp Wanocksett. Our last year at this summer camp was in 2019. Our Scouts will stay in two-person canvas wall tents on wooden platforms; each Scout will have a cot. Meals will be prepared by the camp and served in their dining hall. We will camp in the Chippewa site.

2022 Leader's Guide - The leader's guide should give you a good idea how this camp is run.

Registration

Program

Activities at camp include merit badge sessions, patrol activities and camp activities (such as camp fires).

Merit badge information is included in the Leader's Guide. An updated list and schedule for available 2022 merit badges was provided June 29 (although mis-labeled as for 2021).

Badges earned during Summer Camp will be presented at a Court of Honor in September.

Pre-camp Meeting

The Troop will hold a pre-camp meeting June 14, 7:00-8:30 PM. Each Scout attending camp should attend this meeting with a parent.

What to Pack

See our summer camp Packing List. To emphasize a few items to bring:

The following items should be carried in a day pack or worn during arrival (not packed in the trailer):

Travel

Departure - We will meet at Epworth at 11:00 AM on Sunday to pack our gear into the trailer. We need to leave the trailer at the site before 1:00 PM (when the camp opens). The drive to the camp takes about 70 minutes, so we will leave Epworth at 11:30 AM. Have lunch before coming to the church or bring a bag lunch to eat at the camp (nothing that requires cooking). The first meal provided by the camp will be dinner.

Return - Our estimated return to Epworth is 12:00 PM on Saturday.

Late arrivals at camp - Advise the Scoutmaster in advance. The troop is expected to show up together.

Care Packages

You can purchase care packages (essentially a cashless way for your Scout to make purchases at the camp trading post) for Scouts and leaders on-line - just be sure to place your order while we are at camp (not in advance).
