SUPER TEAM AWESOME (YOU’LL NEED TWO STICKS OF DEODORANT) ADVENTURE CLUB TREK PROGRAM

In a program that should live up to its name, our trek program is geared for older Scouts (14 and up) looking for an exciting alternative to merit badges and who like to get away! Trek activities include our popular golf outing at Lakehurst Navy, rock climbing at the Rockville Indoor Climbing Gym, surfing the waves on Long Beach Island, a breathtaking day of High COPE elements and even a deep sea fishing trip!

AQUATICS ADVENTURE SPECIALTY TREK

Our newest and most challenging trek experience yet, the Aquatics Adventure program takes Scouts out on the water for a full week of aquatics activity. Participants will have the opportunity to surf, sail and Scuba dive, including earning the PADI Scuba Certification and new Scuba Merit Badge! This is an intense full-week program limited to 15 Scouts per week. Ages 14 and up.

CHALLENGING OUTDOOR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE CSR offers an outstanding and seasoned C.O.P.E. program where older Scouts(13+) will be able to participate in this afternoon program while participating in other programs (merit badges etc) during the morning sessions. C.O.P.E. is a program designed to teach: Communication, Planning, Teamwork, Trust, Leadership, Decision Making, Problem Solving and Self Esteem!

FIRST CLASS FRONTIER

Our first year camper program is a great way to jumpstart your younger Scouts for the trail to Eagle. The First Class Frontier program is an all day, hands-on program that gives Scouts a taste of each area in camp, all while teaching the skills needed for most Tenderfoot thru First Class requirements. Not only will Scouts work on advancement, the program includes earning two merit badges!
