Cub Scout Day Camp
Introduction
Native Americans were in our land long before we arrived. Their heritage and traditions became the foundation for Scouting. All Cub Scouts are invited to come and learn the games, traditions, crafts and sports of the Native Americans during the 2008 Cub Scout Day Camp! Learn to speak the native tongue, discover the local tribes living in our area, and understand how Native Americans show their respect for the earth and how all living things are connected. Learn a Native American dance and understand the importance of oral history. All this and more at Day Camp.
Cub Scouts can participate in many types of activities including water activities, archery, field sports, nature, arts and crafts, Scout skills, and a variety of other events. All areas (especially archery and water activities) place a special emphasis on safety procedures. Each week also has a Family Day complete with awards and a campfire or ceremony in the afternoon. It’s a fun-filled week of challenging Cub Scout activities, exciting adventures and new friendships. Camp is open to all Cub Scouts who will be in first thru fifth grades as of September 2008.
