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.  

Here is the official 2025 Camp Experience Guide
