Cub Scout Summer Camps
There are many great options for summer camps for your Scouts. Nearby day camps and twilight camps are available for all ranks, and an overnight camp at Camp Freeland Leslie is available for all Webelos ranks (including the current Bear ranks, who will become Webelos in May).
For a list of Cub Scout available camps offered visit this page here: http://threefirescouncil.org/index.php/outdoor/cub-scout-summer-camps
Finally, Scouts that want to help finance their camp registration fees can sell "Camp Cards" which offer great discounts at various businesses. The cards sell for $5 each and the Scouts earn 50% of each card sold.
