Webelos Resident (Overnight) Camp
Camp Cornhusker near DuBois, NE has overnight resident camps available for both cub scouts and webelos.
Webelos Camp is an exciting adventure for your Webelos Scout. It provides a fun filled environment, with just the right mixture of challenge. Boys graduating third or fourth grade in the Bear/Webelos Dens are rapidly expanding their horizons. Webelos Camp gives them a peek at what is just over the hill. The activities are planned specifically for Webelos and will greatly aid the Webelos Leader in helping those energetic Scouts try new skills in the out-of-doors.
Webelos Camp is an adventure...with a purpose. It's camping out, in a safe and pleasurable environment to ensure that our Webelos have a fine camping experience. It's learning how to work together and play together. In the great outdoors, Webelos gain in experience, knowledge, and self-reliance with the help of their Webelos Leader and a trained camp program staff.
The Staff will be working with the Scouts and Leaders to help them to grow their outdoor
camping skills. Outdoor cooking, Scout crafts, and Scouting skills will be emphasized along with a
few additional activities. Your Scouts will have the opportunity to tour the entire Camp and see the
different program areas that will be available to them when they return with their Scouts, BSA
Troop.
