Winter Camp, Friday March 7 through Sunday March 9. Camp Rokilio, Keil, WI. Open to the whole family. Space is limited, so sign up early! This year we will be staying in the Castle! Cost to be determined based on the cost of food, usually approximately $40 per person. A $25 non-refundable deposit per family is requested to hold your spot. (This will be subtracted from your family’s total final cost.) This is a great campout in a heated, themed cabin. We cook our meals, go sledding, hiking and have fun in the snow! We usually plan for the boys to earn two or three belt loops. If you would like to lead a belt loop activity or help plan Winter Camp, please let one of the Pack leaders know!  We are looking for someone (or better yet, a few someones) to take over the planning and preparation of Winter Camp. Let us know how you can help!

Camp in a heated cabin, all meals provided! $40 per participant (Scout and Parent/Guardian only, no siblings. Scout must attend with parent/guardian). Cost includes lodging and all meals Saturday, breakfast on Sunday, and cracker barrel Friday night. Please pay $10 per participant deposit at the December Pack Meeting to guarantee your spot! This camp is similar to Swamp Fox, and the boys will have the opportunity to earn belt loops by visiting many different stations with their designated patrols on Saturday. Local Boy Scout Troops run several of the activity stations. Saturday night there is a big fire and award ceremony. More details on acivities available soon. If your Scout has not attended camp before, this is a good place to start! Please consider attending. Contact Chad Peterson if you have any questions.
