Cub Scout Camping

Cub Scout Camping Adventures

Camping is where Cub Scouts come alive: where imaginations run wild, friendships grow stronger, and skills are put into action. Whether it's learning to build a fire, exploring trails, or laughing around the campfire, outdoor adventures help bring the values of Scouting to life.

The Georgia-Carolina Council offers a variety of camping opportunities tailored for Cub Scouts and their families. From council-hosted events to pack-led overnighters, each program is designed to spark excitement and build lasting memories. Start your unit’s next great adventure here!

Council-Led Family Camping Weekends

Camping is one of the most memorable parts of the Cub Scout experience, and whether it’s a council-hosted event or a pack-led adventure, every outing is an opportunity to learn, grow, and have fun as a Scouting family.

Council-led camping weekends are open to all Cub Scouts and their families, providing structured, high-energy programs that bring Packs together from across the region. These events often feature activities like shooting sports, crafts, outdoor games, Scout skills, and classic campfire programs. Signature experiences such as Spook-O-Ree and Cub Fun Day deliver festive, themed weekends that make a lasting impression on Scouts of all ages.

For older Cub Scouts, our Webelos and Arrow of Light (AOL) events (including Webeloree and Webelos Resident Camp) offer more advanced adventures tailored to 4th and 5th graders. These programs focus on rank advancement, outdoor skill-building, and helping Scouts gain confidence as they prepare to transition into the next phase of their Scouting journey.

In addition to council programming, every Pack is encouraged to host at least one Pack-led family camping weekend each year. Known as a “Pack Overnighter,” these events are ideal for building community, sharing adventures, and creating lasting memories together. With two premier locations: Knox Scout Reservation and the Nature and Adventure Center, your Pack has access to safe, scenic, and fully equipped sites perfect for a weekend under the stars.

No matter the format, Cub Scout camping is where the values of Scouting come to life—and where every family finds a place to belong.
