What is Grizzly Camp?

Grizzly Camp is a unique camp that offers four weeks with four different themes! Each week is full of range and target activities, swimming, hands-on nature activities, and a trip to MUD CAVE! Scouts will need to bring a lunch each day camp is in session. We encourage parents to participate with their children the week they are attending camp, but parent supervision is not required at this camp. Please note that an adult partner is required for all youth entering the 1st grade in the fall of 2025.

Camps are 9 am - 4 pm daily.  The first week will be $125.  Each additional week will be $105.

Grizzly Camps also offer care for an additional cost before (8 am - 9 am) and after (4 pm -6 pm).
