James C. Justice National Scout Camp Leader Guide
This guide is helpful to anyone that wants more information on their child’s camp, whether or not the parent plans to attend as an Adult Leader. Be sure to check it out!
Troop 788 Confirmation/Deposit Deadline: TBD
An adult leader will reach out to you regarding registration and deposit deadlines. They will register all of the Troop at the same time. All deposits are non-refundable. Please use Zelle to pay directly into our Troop 788 Bank Account.
Troop 788 Merit Badge Selection Deadline: TBD
Scouts select the merit badges they are most interested in completing at camp. Our Outdoor Activities Leader will do their best to register scouts for their preferences, but certain slots fill up fast. New Scouts are recommended to do the New Scout program, first aid and swimming as this leads to good advancement and important early skills. The Merit Badge Grid as of February 2025 is at this link.
Troop 788 Final Payment Deadline: TBD
Your final payment for summer camp will be calculated by an adult leader after Merit Badge Registration has been completed. You will most likely receive an email detailing the amount you owe as well as when that final payment is due.
