May 2020 Camping Signup

One of the camping events we have planned for this spring is attending the NJ State Police camporee. This camporee comes around every three years and is a massive event (estimate this year is 10,000 participants). When we’ve done this in the past it is a popular weekend with the scouts.

The camporee is at the State Police Academy in Sea Girt, and this year they need to cut down the available space. For that reason the organizers are trying to get early signups so that they can plan ahead. They have adopted a sliding signup fee based on early registrations and also warned us that once they hit their maximum participant count, they’ll be shutting down registrations.

For that reason we will be opening signups for this May trip now. The troop will be committing to slots as you register. For this reason, the registration fee should be handed in to an adult leader, not the Patrol Leader. We will do our best to register scouts with the event as they sign up, guaranteeing a slot at the event.

We will still be collecting $15 from each scout for food when get to May.
