Scout FIRE Family Event 2023
From the spark that started the Mom and Son program over 30 years ago, to the move including our newest members in 2018 morphing into the Mom and Scout program, we are pleased to announce Bay-Lakes Council's next step to bring this program to all the families we serve.
Let's continue the Scout FIRE! This is your family’s opportunity to spend the weekend together, tent camping, at the beautiful Camp Rokilio. Whether it is Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt, Uncle, guardian or other trusted adult, this weekend will introduce Scouting to a family member that may not normally get out to camp.
The weekend starts on Friday night with getting to camp and tent site set-up. No worry if you don’t know how to set up your tent site, we have experienced Scouts waiting to assist you and will guide you in this adventure. Then, make your way to the dining hall for pizza and a dance, decorate your tote bag, or sit by a campfire.
On Saturday morning you will head to the dining hall for breakfast, as all meals are included, before your adventure for the day will begin. Make your way around camp to explore and participate in a wide variety of programs including two person saw, branding, candle making, bog hikes, tie dying, Scout skills, and so much more. Saturday is wrapped up with a Scouts Own Service, a Campfire Program and a Candlelight Memory Walk to highlight the weekend.
We will close on Sunday morning as you enjoy breakfast and pack up camp to head home and tell the exciting stories to the rest of your family about the adventures you had at camp.
We hope to see you there!
