Resident Camps

Create Magical Memories

Our resident camps offer a unique blend of adventure, learning, and personal growth. Campers get to immerse themselves in the great outdoors, participating in activities like hiking, swimming, and archery. These experiences are designed to build character, develop leadership skills, and foster a sense of community. Under the guidance of trained leaders, campers form lasting friendships and create memories that will last a lifetime. Each day at camp is an opportunity to discover new strengths and passions, all while having an incredible amount of fun. Join us for a summer filled with excitement, growth, and unforgettable adventures!

How can you be prepared for Summer Camp?

Summer camp and our other camps at Rainbow Scout Reservation are the place our Scouts look forward to all year long. We have scheduled activities to help Scouts reach their advancement goals. There are so many memories and experiences to be had this summer

  • Medical Forms

    Rainbow Council as well as the National organization might require The Annual Health and Medical Record to help protect Scouts and the organization. Lack of prior knowledge can lead to failing to recognize a dangerous situation. We never want to allow a Scout who might not be up to a task to be placed in a dangerous situation. We use these forms as a tool for safety and awareness for everyone involved.

  • Packing List

    A big part of the Scouting uniform is being prepared. Some events and activities require different attire specific to the environment. Most importantly is learning what is appropriate. To help Scouts be prepared in a camping environment, our Summer Camp teams has put together a general packing list for our camping environment at RSR. Check which camping list works for our overnight events, and use these as tools for your Scout or Unit in future camping activities and overnights!
