DAY CAMP – 9A – July 13-17, 2020
Cub Scout Day Camp offers all Scouts a fun, exciting, and productive week of Scouting for boys and girls entering 1st through 5th grade. The week will be a fun-filled, action-packed adventure for only $115.00 (early registration fee). Cub Scouts receive a patch, t-shirt and all materials & programs with their registration fee. Cub Scouts are expected to wear their camp t-shirt every day during camp. Extra shirts may be purchased for $11.00 each during the registration process.Please note: Camp t-shirts are ordered from the vendor on June 1st. Therefore, if you register after this, you will still receive a shirt, but the size cannot be guaranteed. BSA Medical Form parts A and B must be filled out for each child attending day camp, and can be found on the registration site.
1st Grade Tiger Scouts MUST have an adult partner with them at camp all week per BSA guidelines! (FYI: Cubs move up to the next rank on June 1st. So a Lion for the 2019-2020 school year will be a Tiger for day camp.)

Registration Fee: (includes a patch, t-shirt, materials, and programs):$115 per person when paid in full by June 15, 2020
$130 per person when paid in full between June 16 & July 6 2020
$140 per person when paid in full on or after July 7, 2020

Day Camp Installment Plan:Register your Scout now for $50 and have the $65 balance paid in full by June 15, 2020 to lock in the early registration price!

Riverside District car drop off will be Saturday, May 30th from 9 am to 11 am at the Melbourne Church of Christ (810 Hollywood Blvd, West Melbourne).
You need to have your name, Unit Number, and rank on the bottom of the car.
The car must be in a ziplock type bag.
There will be a place at the church where you will be able to drive up, roll down the window, and hand the bag to someone that will put it into a box for transport to the council office.
You will be able to watch you car race during designated time blocks that will be sent later.
The car (and any trophies) will be available to pick up at the next, in person, Roundtable meeting (TBD).
It is imperative that the car meets racing specifications prior to drop off. Any car that does meet requirements may not be eligible to participate.
