Summer Camps are the BEST Part of Cub Scouting

Celebrate Scouting's 100th anniversary by attending camp this year!

Our den leaders have selected camp dates for each den. Please add this to your calendar now so your scout won't miss the fun. Camps vary with each rank but they are all tons of fun. Prices below are after our Centennial Quality Unit Award discount (this is one reason we sell popcorn!). A change in Council policy this year means that our discount can only be applied to a single camp - the Cabela's Day Camp. All other camps have regular costs listed. If, however, we are able to reuse the discount for other camps, you will be refunded the difference.

Below are the current plans for Pack 359's various camps. If you have questions or comments please talk to your den leader or reply to this email. Our goal is to have EVERY scout attend a camp this summer. Camp is where you create memories...

Scouts are registered for camp as a group, please do not register on your own. Your den leaders will have registration forms at your next den or pack meeting and will collect registration fees at that time (checks to be made out to Pack 359).


Cabela’s Day Camp, Chalco Hills Omaha, May 15
This camp is for ALL cub scouts and the entire family. Cabela's gives away many prizes and it was a lot of fun last year. No overnight, just a day camp. Cost is $28 per scout. The cost includes 1 adult attendee, t-shirt, patch, lanyard, and lunch for both. Since this camp is only about a month away we need to get registration in soon. (siblings are $15, additional adults are $5)

Camps by rank to follow. These camps are all overnight, with only the Webelos staying 2 nights (all others are a single night). IMPORTANT: your scout will attend the next rank camp since most camps take place after school ends and scouts automatically advance to the next rank. i.e. today's Tigers will be Wolves, Wolves will be Bears, Bears will be Webelos Is.


Wolves – Camp Wakonda, Bellevue, May 21-22 (1 night)
An adult must accompany the scout to camp. This is a great first camp after your first year in scouting; it's just in Bellevue's Fontenelle Forest (where we had our campfire in October). Cost is $45 for a scout and $30 for an adult. Cost include two meals, t-shirt, patch, and lanyard


Bears – Camp Eagle, Fremont, June 11-12 (1 night)
An adult must accompany the scout to camp. This camp is about 1 hour away from Omaha and is the real deal. Your scout will learn archery and BB gun, swim, and have a blast. Cost is $45 for a scout and $30 for an adult. Cost include two meals, t-shirt, patch, and lanyard.

Webelos I/IIs – Camp Cedars, Fremont, July 23-25 (2 nights)
Also just outside Fremont, this camp takes place at the Boy Scout facility and is a real challenge for the boys - but they love it. Your scout will have the opportunity to go horseback riding, rockwall climbing, and get a taste of being a Boy Scout. Cost is $85 for a scout and $65 for an adult. Adults are welcome to attend but not required; den leaders will be there to guide the scouts. Cost include six meals, t-shirt, patch, and lanyard.
