Camp Achievements for 2023

Leaders and Akelas,       

Below you will find a list of POSSIBLE achievements the Scouts earned at camp.     Not every Scout earned every achievement.  Please remember that some Scouts may have missed or not participated in certain activities.   Also, Scouts do not always have to complete each activity, just "Do their best"!'

2023 Achievements 

Note: Scouts who attend 3 Pack Summertime Activities can receive the National Summertime Pack Award Pin.  Attending Twilight Camp is one of the 3 activities!!

If your Scouts performed an outdoor flag ceremony, they completed that requirement and potential badge.

All of our Scouts participated in a Music lesson.  It is possible to award a music badge for that activity.

All of our Tigers, Wolves and Bears participated in a Raingutter Regatta and it is possible to award a badge for that activity.
