What is Early Registration?

Early Registration allows Packs to reserve a weekend for the following summer camp with a $100 deposit. Reserving early helps secure a preferred 2027 camp date before Fall Recruitment begins.

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, Packs will be able to increase or reduce their number during the adjustment period in February.
