Cub Scout Camping  
As a reminder, during exit interviews with boys who have dropped out of Cub Scouts, 50% of the respondents indicated that they were leaving Cub Scouts because their units weren't camping. If your Pack isn't camping, you should seriously consider adding some kind of camping experience to your schedule. During the winter months is the best time to start planning for that first outdoor experience by checking into camping facilities, getting leaders trained and asking one of your local Boy Scouts troops to come over and provide your unit with some "hands-on" camping training. For a Pack to take Tigers, Wolves and Bears camping, all you need is one BALOO trained adult (this adult must be present at the campsite during the outing) and to reserve your campsite at a Council approved site.

A list of approved sites is available on the Council website ( www.threefirescouncil.org ).

Webelos Dens need to be under the supervision of an adult who has completed Fast Start Training, New Leader Essentials, Cub Scout Leader Specific (Webelos Leader) Training and Outdoor Leader Skills for Webelos Leaders. Upcoming training dates are available on this website as well as the Council website
