Summer Camp
Summer Camp 2022
Summer Camp is the highlight of the yearly scouting calendar.
Troop 9 boys and girls are going to Summer Camp from Sunday June 19 to Saturday June 25, 2022. We are going to Ransburg Scout Reservation located on Monroe Reservoir, near Bloomington IN.
The Full price fee for summer camp is $400, but in Troop 9, nobody pays full price! The Troop strongly encourages scouts to go to summer camp and offers an automatic $50 discount. Crossroads of America Council and the Troop offer Campership opportunities to pay almost all of the fees for families that might need help. A significant number of scouts have banked money from troop fundraising activities that can be used to pay for all or part of the camp fees. Contact treasurer@troop9bsa.org to find out if you or your scout has money in their scout account.
