2021 Cardboard Campout





Put your camping and winter survival skills to the test. We'll be at the Kent Park Youth Camp. Sleep outside or in the lodge, the choice is yours. Build a sleeping shelter out of cardboard. Note, A night spent outside counts as a night of camping for Order of the Arrow, rank advancement, and Camping Merit Badge purposes. A night spent in the lodge does not count for any of those things. The deadline to register is Dec 4th.
