Leadership
in Camps
It is the policy of the Boy Scouts of America that at least two adults,
one of whom must be 21 years or older, are required for all trips or
outings. Camp leaders must be registered members of the Boy Scouts of
America and at least 21 years of age. Assistant camp leaders must be
at least 18 years of age. The chartered institution must approve all
camp leadership, male or female.
Consistent with the policy of
the BSA, separate housing must be provided for all female leadership.
While facilities in camp remain the same, scheduling is designed to
assure the privacy of both male and female leadership. Special consideration
is given to the maturity of leadership. Prudent judgment must be exercised
to assure that proper role models are provided for our young people.If you would like more information
