Packs can "Be Prepared" by registering during the Early Registration phase, this gives families the ability to plan their summer around the Pack's Arrow of Light Camp date.

The Arrow of Light Camp page
What is Early Registration?
Early Registration allows Packs to reserve a weekend for the following summer camp with a $100 deposit. This allows Packs to reserve space and get their 2026 Arrow of Light Camp date on the Calendar before Fall Recruitment.
At the time of registration Packs enter their estimated attendance for youth and adults, up to 20 total spots (10 youth and 10 adults). Please note that this is just an estimate, and Packs will be able to increase or reduce their number during the adjustment period in February.

FAQ:
- What if I need more than 10 youth spots, but less than the 10 adult spots?
- During the adjustment period you will be able to change the registrant type.
- For example, if you need 12 youth spots and 8 adult spots, you will be able to reserve 10 youth spots and 10 adult spots, then change 2 of the adult spots to youth during the adjustment period.
- What if I need more than 20 spots for my Pack?
- Create an additional registration and pay an additional $100 registration deposit for 20 more spots. Customer Service will then merge your registrations so you only need to manage one registration.
- What if I need to reduce my numbers?
- During the adjustment period in February, you will be able to reduce or increase your spots.
- You can reduce your estimated numbers before the adjustment period by contacting Customer Service. However, removed spots are no longer held by you and may be claimed by other Packs.
- What happens if I cancel my entire registration before or during the adjustment period?
- Canceling the entire registration will result in the loss of the $100 deposit.
- What if I need to reduce my numbers after the adjustment period?
- All reductions and cancellations after the adjustment period will result in the loss of the $25 deposit.
