Summer Camp
Summer Camp 2025 - June 8-14
Troop 9 boys are going to Ransburg Scout Reservation located near Bloomington Indiana. Our Campsite is Siler Maple on Ridge 1.
The Full price fee for summer camp is $490, but in Troop 9, nobody pays full price! The council offers a $25 early bird discount. The Troop strongly encourages scouts to go to summer camp and offers an automatic $150 discount. Camperships offer an opportunity to pay almost all of the fees for families that might need help. Please ask. 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.
