Spring Camporee

Northern Star Scouting is excited to announce the theme of the 2024 Spring Camporee- American Heroes

Scouts BSA participants who attend the event will have the opportunity to work on three Merit Badges- Citizenship in the Nation, Indian Lore and American Heritage.  This is a great time to take advantage of working on an Eagle Rank-required Merit Badge in a fun and engaging way! Other program offerings will include historical reenactments and displays, along with a whole host of other fun program opportunities. More details on these badges and programs can be found on the registration page.

Webelos Dens are encouraged to participate with a Scouts BSA Troop of their choice. Troops are encouraged to reach out and invite Dens of associated Packs to join them. The Den will act as a Patrol within the Troop. The Webelos Scouts will practice working together as a Patrol independently under Scout youth leadership. Parents of Webelos will camp and eat with the Troop adults while being able to observe their Scouts in action. Troops will plan their own menus and provide their own food. This is a great opportunity for Troops to show Webelos Scouts and their parents why they should join the Troop for the next step on the Scouting adventure trail.

Details about the program are available in the Event Guide, available for download from the registration page.
