General Information :: Please read carefully

1. All Campership applications must be submitted by May 7th for Boy Scouts Cub Scouts.
2. Any application received without a brief explanation of why it is being requested will be returned so they can be completed; if they are received a second time without an explanation the Campership will be denied.
3. Letters will be sent to the Unit leaders notifying them if a campership was granted and in what amount.
4. All youth using council facilities whether for short-term overnight or long-term summer camp periods are already subsidized, in part, by the council’s yearly operating budget which pays for taxes, year-round camp rangers, maintenance, liability insurance, heat, light, etc. The community through Friends of Scouting, popcorn sales, trust fund income and Campership donations pays this cost.
