We have just opened the CAMP SUPPORT APPLICATION for 2026 summer camp. This is a great way to get all your Scouts to camp and, for some, to their second camping experience this year!

Here are the details:

Funds may cover up to 50% of camp fees at Camp Amikaro, Camp Cedars, or a summer day camp.

Additional information:
โ€ข Funds are intended for Scouts not currently registered to attend Camp Cedars, Camp Amikaro, or a Cub Scout Summer Day Camp.

โ€ข When funds are depleted, this application will close. If the application is open, there are still funds remaining.

โ€ข Applications will be reviewed in the order in which they are received and you can expect a response within 5 business days of submission.

โ€ข Funds are non-transferrable between Scouts and must be used during the summer of 2026.

โ€ข Funds will be distributed on a first come, first served basis and are not necessarily only for Scouts with great financial need. All MAC Scouts are encouraged to apply.

Please direct any questions about this to Member Services at 402-431-9272 or [email protected].

Help Shape the Future of Scouting America!

Scouting America is updating the Eagle Scout Service Project Workbookโ€”and weโ€™re exploring a bold new step: creating one streamlined service project workbook for the Eagle Scout, Summit Award, and Quartermaster Award.

Your voice matters. Weโ€™re turning to the Scouting community for input on how to make this process more meaningful, effective, and impactful for Scouts across all programs.

Weโ€™d like your feedback on:

Service project workbook design

Defining measurable "impact"

Proposal requirements and sections

Updated service project policies

This is your opportunity to shape the next generation of Scouting leadership and service. Share your insights and experiences to help create a stronger system for future Scouts.

The survey will close on September 19th.

Scouts, leaders, parents, and alumni from Venturing, Scouts BSA, and Sea Scouts are especially encouraged to participate.

Together, letโ€™s build a workbook that truly empowers Scouts to lead and serve.
