On the last Monday of May, the United States observes Memorial Day, a time to honor and remember the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Today, we pause to reflect on their courage, dedication, and sacrifice. We remember those who have fallen and honor the legacy they leave behind.

Progress Update!

Wanocksett’s paid rangers and volunteer corps have been hard at work getting camp ready for an incredible season ahead and the progress has been awesome to see!

The new rifle range has seen a lot of development in a short amount of time, with the foundation and flooring nearly complete.

Around Provo, major tree clearing and dead branch removal have helped clean up and refresh the area.

Older Scouts can look forward to an exciting new COPE element being added to our high ropes course.

And over at the waterfront, new changing facilities are up and coming (don't worry, the doors are on the way soon 😉).

A huge thank you to everyone putting in the time and effort to make Wanocksett better than ever. We can’t wait to see Scouts enjoying these upgrades in just around a month!

Ice cream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

One of our favorite traditions at Wanocksett involves a delicious evening treat and music to accompany it! Every Thursday night, the Order of the Arrow hosts an ice cream social for everyone at camp. Right next door, the Wanocksett Players, our camp band, performs a live concert! This talented group always brings great energy, and there’s no better way to enjoy some frozen dessert than with live music in the background.

New Rifle Range Update!

Over the past few months, the deconstruction of Wanocksett’s previous rifle range has been underway. Thanks to the hard work of many dedicated hands, that process has now been completed.

With the area officially cleared, construction on the new rifle range has begun. We are incredibly excited to have the new range ready for the 2026 season. Campers are in for a fun experience as Rifle Director James O’Connell helps them learn new skills and sharpen existing ones.

If you love to shoot, make sure you come help break in the brand new rifle range this summer!

Who’s loves to cook? If so, the Iron Chef is 100% for you!

Each summer, the best cooks from across Wanocksett gather to represent Brownsea and Scoutcraft to see who has the best cheffing abilities!

The goal: Create a three course meal to satisfy the taste buds of the judges.

If you think you have what it takes to compete in such a legendary competition, make sure you are there this summer!

To wrap up our Meet the Staff series: the Wanocksett Administration!

You’ll recognize some familiar faces here, this group has the lowest turnover rate on staff! These are the folks working behind the scenes to keep the camp magic alive.

First up, returning for his 36th year on staff, is Camp Director Danny Megan! To this day, his favorite memories come from the summer of ’93, his first year as Scoutcraft Director.

Next is Assistant Camp Director Andy Collins. When he’s not at camp, he teaches computer science and personal finance at Murdock High School.

Our Program Director, Nick O’Connell, is returning for his 2nd year in the role. In the off-season, Nick has a unique job working for the famous athletic brand Nike.

Ethan Graham, the Assistant Program Director, fondly recalls the Soda Shaq trading post promotion from all the way back in 2014. It may not be familiar to many, so be sure to ask him about it this summer!

Our Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Program will be led by Director Annie Souza this year. Wanocksett is known for its beautiful night sky, and Annie especially loves watching the Perseid meteor shower each summer.

Now in his 3rd year as Business Manager, Daniel Fuller is gearing up to bring you exciting merchandise this summer! However, he still remembers his roots in Scoutcraft, making donuts by the dozen for campers to devour.

Laura Fuller will be rejoining the admin team this year as Office Manager. Like many others, she shares a favorite memory from the summit of Mount Monadnock.

In his 6th year on staff, and 1st as a member of the administration, Jack Anderson will serve as Communications Director this summer. He is one of two students on the administration team, and soon to be the only one when Dan graduates this spring.

Finally, leading Wanocksett’s incredible Webelos Resident Program this summer is Jacob Rodger. In addition to his role at camp, Jacob is both a real estate agent and a business owner. He runs Lifeshield CPR, so if you see him this summer, be sure to ask about what they do!

That wraps up our introduction to the Wanocksett senior staff. We can’t wait to see you this summer, let's have the time of our lives!

This week, we meet the Transitional Staff!

These folks have a very special role because they don’t work in just one area, but all throughout camp. They fill in when others are unavailable and truly are the glue that holds Wanocksett together.

First up is Trevor! You may recognize him because has previously worked at Scoutcraft and has been a member of Wanocksett’s own band, the Wanocksett Players, for the past few years.

Next is Tobias. He previously worked as a CIT at Wanocksett, and one of his favorite memories comes from that time, when he went through C.O.P.E for the first time.

And last but certainly not least, we have Jonathan, joining us for his first year on staff. He looks back fondly on his final day as a camper last summer, where he made the most of it by breaking records and trying new things.

If you see these three around camp this summer, wherever they may be working, make sure to say hi!
